woods

we will be taking photos of various woodlands and come to a conclusion of which scene we are going to use for filming.

HORROR FILM PLANNING

Wer are going to use masks or hooded clothing in our filming as these add a creepy aspect into the footage much like the strangers, this makes the charecters annonymous to a certain extent and makes the viewer unable to see their identity making it more surreal due to not being able to identify the,, or even know if they are human underneath.

Editing

I think for this task we need to make sure we film wha is nessercary and more in order so it easier to edit it and when the software lags there will not be so much of a problem. Also i think the maximum time of footage we should have is about 8 minutes so its not to diffucuilt to sort out and so there isnt too much to decide what is good and what is not.

Horror vs romance

Often in horror there are the leading charecters who often have another part or rtelation within the film who is the one who becomes a target to demons, for example in paranormal activity 2 the baby and wife are the focus iof the demopns wants, yet by the end all of the family except the daughter are killed representing the common concept of, the lead or demon, wins at everything unless defeated.

Haunting in conneticuit follows a similar concept with the leading boy having cancer and dying momentarily within the film before being okay. Within horrors it is usually only if the horror within the film is defeated which the loved ones all survive. Paranormal activity the demon is left to continue having not been defeated.

This is the same in the stranger where both leads who are ibn love result in death with the evil having not been defeated. To continue the cyccle of madness. This also happens in blaire witch were all the friends die, with the evil still being present.

It goes without saying.

Soundtracks

A possible soundtrack for the backing of our filming could be a theme tune from the video game zelda ocarina of time, shadow temple because it is dark music, and is for a ghost themed section of the game. It is quite daunting and would add to a tense atmosphere so would be quite useful.
Also as i have the music on cd it would be easy to rip it tooo the school computers for our personal use.
