2. In order to make a horror film it is
important that you consider the
structure of the film which should
consist of; the setting/location,
characters, weapons/props and use of
sound
3. Setting/location
The setting and location is a very important
aspect to consider when making a horror
film.
You must consider that the location is a
place which builds a very tense and
uncomfortable atmosphere on it’s viewers.
A typical location in a horror film would be
the woods or a house, which would both be
set in the night to build the horror
atmosphere.
4. Characters
A typical horror film would include
characters such as; the victim, villain/killer
and the hero.
The victim usually tends to be a young
vulnerable woman, followed by the villain
who may be either a man, ghost, zombie or
demon.
Villains are normally shown dressed in black
clothing or a mask so that they can not be
identified.
5. Props/weapons
The props and weapons used depends on the
sort of horror movie that is made.
A movie that consists of zombies may consist
of weapons such as an axe.
If it's a modern horror movie, consisting of a
human being as a victim, weapons such as a
knife would be used.
The use of props and weapons used may also
identify the situation of the characters.
