Over the summer, each of us in our group decided to do our own independent research since we more time to!
Summer Research Into Horror Films - Produced by Javan
I decided to take a further look in depth into what builds and makes a horror film from budget to who directed the film. I also included images to build and explain the theme of the story in depth. Using and looking at these conventions will support us in our film trailer production. In this research, I decided to look at the story of 'The Uninvited'. I also decided to grab and list which horror trailers hold the the top title. Including trailers is ideal because it is of relation to what we will be studying.
Liz's Summer Work
Instead of using software's such as final cut pro to create a horror story, I used a book format with images to show my brainstorm of ideas. in this research i looked at fear and what people were scared of, then showed how fear is produced in horror movies using different media's such as charcoal and images from the internet.
