Brief film analysis

The film made by Bryony, Jordan, Emma and I, will be carefully strcutured and thought out before put into film as we don't want to rush and make silly mistakes and errors. We decided on a horror purely because I find it the most exciting out of all genres and it really grips the audience the most aimed at an age group which would be more likely to watch more films in their spare time. We have analysed and done background research on horror films which we have also done a few blogs on to give a few ideas on what features our film will contain. There are certain skills and techniques used in horror films to give off effects to scare the auidience and intrigue them more into what the plot is. I will give an example as to the camera angles, shots, and techniques we'll be using in our short video clip to the film.

These skills would be:
Zoom- This is used when they want the audience to see something specific about what is on camera, it could be emotion on the characters face or it could be an object of some sort.
Two shot- Commonly used when two people are having either a casual conversation giving vital information or they are interacting about what has happened previously when they want the audience to pay attention to what they're saying.
Long shot- This will be used to give someone a view of the surroundings and the character involved. This will be effective in the scary parts in our small horror film clip as it is commonly used in most other horror films.
Extreme long shot- This will be the shot that we use mostly and this is because you can see a slight outline of the character but not details, it also focuses more on the setting so that the audience don't know too much about the character and it adds suspense.
