Effective video production requires careful consideration of mise-en-scene, editing techniques, and camera stability to portray the intended genre professionally. Composition is crucial in scenes to convey the stereotypical message through exposure of horror elements at the right time. Both ellipsis of time and a variety of shot types are needed to maintain audience engagement within the short format.

1. Effective video production

2. • The mise-en-scene is important when portraying the genre
• Need a range of editing techniques to make it effective
• Tripods allow greater stability of the shot, making it look less amateur

3. • Composition is key in certain scenes to make the filming look
professional
• If the composition is not thought through thoroughly or the secens
can lose their stereotypical message in a horror you need to expose
the “horror” before you want, o you can lose the ear factor

4. • Ellipsis of time is used a lot due to the short time available to video
• The dialogue needs to be loud and clear so the audience can hear it
• Costumes and location is key to conveying the stereotypical message
the genre is trying to portray
• A range of shot types during the trailer and/or opening sequence will
keep the audience watching rather than becoming bored.
