Settings

Lauren has suggested to have the location in a woods. We have two possible woods. The first woods is TESCO's woods and the second woods is in ashtead. We feel this location of a woods would work really well as its a rural place. Their is also a bridge at tesco woods so if we choose to shoot at this location then it might come in handy to our storyline. Lauren emma and sophie will be going down tescos and taking pictures of tesco woods, so when they have been taken they will be blogged about.

Final film idea's.

For our final film we have decided to do filming in the style of 'the blair witch project'. So for this we will be using the effect of handheld camera. We will be filming most if not all of the footage at night. I will blog picture's of the location when my group have decided where we are going to film.

Horror Posters.

 This is the poster for A Nightmare on Elm Street.
This is a really good poster because it draw's you in. The way they have placed the villan as the main image on the poster. It really stand's out. The colour of the title being red also could represent the colour of blood, being a horror. It also has lyrics on the top that are involved to create tention.

Film idea brainstorm

Evil dead 2 opening analysis

At the begining of Evil dead they are telling a story about a 'book of the dead'. You no by this that the book is going to be the main part of the story. Their is only slow music when the titles are being displayed and at the begining, when their is a narrator telling us the story about the book. They show a location shot, which shows the cottage. This cottage is all on its own. Their is only two people in the story so far and one of them is unsure about staying their. This immediatly makes you feel uncomfortable about whats going to happen next. Then one of the characters finds a tape recorder, and starts to play whats on it. Then when the tape is playing you get flashbacks of the story from the tape. In the flashback you see that they find the book that was being talked about at the begining, from this you no that something bad is going to happen or has already happend and its going to unravel.
Whilst the tape is playing it cuts to someone or something coming towards the cottage. But you no that its not a good thing as its from their point of veiw and their breathing really heavily. But from this they have used the handheld camera effect, and their have added scary music when you see them walking fast towards the cottage. It then shows the women being possed and evil and starts to attack the man. He kills her and then buries her in the garden, and puts a giant cross made of sticks over where he had buried her. Then it shows it on the creature going really fast towards the cottage again throught the house and out towards the man. It then attacks the man and takes him through the sky untill he hits a tree. He then falls in a puddle of muddy water. When he lifts his head out of the water he is also possesed. But when the sun comes out he holds his hand towards his face and screams, you then see smoke dissapering. He then stands up and looks around. It then cuts to the cottage, and the demon/creature starts talking, so you no now that the house is evil, and not to go in their. This opening scene shows the story unfolding already. It really draws you into it as you want to no whats going to happen to the only character left alive.

Camera movements

I think that for our final idea we are going to use a hand held camera, to really give the hand shaking at night time effect to make it more realistic.

Horror locations with pictures

Here is a few picture's that give me ideas about the were we should film our idea.

 This picture represents, night time with only the light of the moon. Gives the effect of everything else being dark.

 I like this picture because noone feels safe walking down alley ways at night because you can very rarely see the end. And just the feel that watching someone walk down an alley way at night gives tention about what might happen.
