An idea we have had for our 'horror' character in our horror genre style film is something supernatural, preferably a ghost. This differs from our film work last year (AS Coursework) in which we had the 'horror' character as a normal person, just stalking the innocecnt character. Also in our AS Coursework we looked very specifically at doing a zombie styled horror at first, so our work on this film trailer will differ highly, showing we have a lot of knowledge of creating horror films and their conventions.
We also came up with ideas for techniques, for example:
>The ghost character being seen and then fading away
>Flashing lights - Everytime the lights come back on something will happen e.g. the victim will have something happening to them
>Close ups of eyes to show the fear of the horror character
>Some stop motion works (taking pictures using a DSLR camera to create motion) which could be what we use inbetween the flashing light shots
From this idea, we will begin looking at film trailers, now specifically supernatural ones to gain ideas for techniques and typical conventions used in supernatural film trailers to show a haunting.
