Horror movie (Opening 2 mins Ideas)
For the opening two minutes of our horror film. We have chosen for the beginning
of the scene is the main character- Emma. Walking down a path with wet hair to
give the impression that she's vulnerable, alone and innocent. I shall be
wearing basic casual wear which contradicts the look of my wet hair and gives
the sense of foreboding, Bryony as the camera person shall use effects to scare
the audeince and to make it more tense- shaking the camera, long shots and close
up shots.
-Example of a long shot.
-Example of close up shots.
-The reason why we've chosen to use there shot types is because we want to get more of an effect towards the audience and we want them to enagage with the horror film and to feel involved so they feel tense and there anxiety builds up.
-We won't just be using long shots and close ups shots, we shall also be using extreme close ups, and camera shots which link with whats going on with the scene at the time.
-For the opening two minutes we won't be using that many shot types as its only for two minutes and if we did use more it shall just make the opening two minutes look like a mess and that it hasnt been oragnised properly which won't look professional. Which isn't a good for the opening two minutes.
-The scene is set at night down a path which runs through the woods to a clearing bridge over a river. By using this setting for the opening two minutes shall already give an impression on the audeince about what the film is going to be about and whats going to be involved which shall make the audeince question it which makes them more engaged and involved with the horror film.
-As the camera follows me - Emma whilst im walking down the path till i reach the bridge over the river.
-We use jump cuts of the camera getting closer and closer to me and through this all we are going to see is the back of my head. By doing this and not showing my face shall make the audience want to see my face and it shall make the audince question the facial expressions and the look on my face.
-Once on the bridge i shall look down at the water as if im going to jump. The camera shall pan to the side slighty keeping me in the shot to show the black figure behind me in the woods. Then the camera cuts to the view of me from the perspective of the figure concealsed in the darkness and approaches me until directly behind me as we can hear the heavy rugged breathing.
-I spin around and scream and the screen goes black. When we see my face it shall be made to look pale and i have black rings around my eyes, when i scream we distort my face for the added effect which is always good for a horror film as they are usually effective.
-The next scene shows James and Jordan as we don't see Jordan's face in the first scene we can use him as a different character watching the news report the next day. The reporter shall reveal the disappearance of a teenage girl which i me. Which makes the 1,2,3,4 and 5 year anniversary to the day of the disappearances in the same place. This makes it more of a mysterious and the person has got a way with it which makes it more scary for the audeince and makes it more tense towards the audeince.

Tuesday 21st October - Reseach on Opening 2 Minutes
In the lesson on the 21st of October, we were looking at and planning our ideads for our first opening 2 minutes of our movie.
Our group (Emma, Bryony, Jordan and I) decides that we are going to do a horror, as we can find good ideas for the opening 2 minutes, we decides to watch a couple of trailers and a couple of opening scenes to give up some ideas about what we could do, we looked at the opening scene of Dawn of the dead (Which is a zombie apocalypse) and that wasnt really the one for us. We also watched

Audience Profiling - The Ring
-From this comparable profile of the ring i can infer that the age range of
15-24 has a higher percentage of watching the ring than the other age
generation. From the table i can infer that more female watch the ring with a
percentage of 54% and the percentage of male is 46%. The percenatge of class
range from 16-45% which is a difference. The largest percentage of viewers come
from the middle upper class. This shows and infers that the main audeince that
watch this film range from 15-24year olds which are females and are the middle
upper class this is because its a gorry film and it shows that the older
generation dont like gorry films.The reason why more females watch this is
because they relate to whats going on in the film and using a child appeals to a
matunral instinct.
