2. I think A horror short would be a good project for me as its easy to use images and
sounds to effect the audience.A Jumpscare at the end would be effective along with
quick pace to build tension. Can use the clock to show late night in the film. The
target audience is also a good age for a horror film seen as a lot of younger people
are into the horror franchise at the moment. The brief seems very simple and will
help build a simple storyline using the rules so I do like the brief in general the no
dialogue will be hard to get to grips with but once you get music and sound effects in
to build the tension it will move a lot more smoothly.

6. Is there any repetition in the images you have collected?
Repeated colours/images styles/fonts/tone/mood
I like the idea of using a porcelain doll within my film as they
are quite unsettling and well used in a lot of horror films.
They are also mysterious because of the fact that you don’t
know what is haunting it or causing it to move/do things.
How will your mood board influence your final product?
It will definitely influence my main idea of my film.
7. Audio
This film has no dialogue therefore the audio wont be a big part of the film. There will
be music to go with the film that will create an eerie feel to the film and some small
sound effects but not a lot. The audio will be very simplistic for the film. I want the
music to create an unsettling feeling to the film and make the audience feel quite
uncomfortable. I would like it to almost child like though, such as like a nursery rhyme
type sound to it. I will most likely get this music royalty free and try to record some of
my own sound effects if I have time to. I think with a film with no dialogue to audio is
simply not the main focus to the audience, I will mostly focus on the viuals but make
sure that the audio links and fits well with the visuals and ties the whole film together
as I think audio is still an important aspect within things like this.
