Audience research
Audience research is important for determining the target demographic for a horror film. A questionnaire found that those aged 15-25 generally enjoy horrors due to the age ratings, as the shock and adrenaline appeal to teenagers. Couples also often see horror films as dates. Men generally show more interest than women, possibly to prove bravery. The interviewee, age 17, said she enjoys the suspense and jumps in horrors for the fun and adrenaline, not relaxation. This research informed the film introduction, which will include suspense and jumps to appeal to the 15-25 demographic, and possibly feature a young couple.
Hillier jade
Jade Hillier completed pre-production tasks for her film project including genre analysis, script, storyboard, shotlist, floor plans, locations, costumes, props, actors, and equipment. The teacher noted Jade was missing analysis of similar products but that her other pre-production work demonstrated excellent and careful planning. The teacher awarded Jade 15 out of 20 marks and suggested including similar product analysis for improvement.
Film beginining analysis jaws
The document provides an analysis of the opening scene of the film "Jaws." It summarizes that the opening scene establishes ominous music and a mysterious point-of-view shot through the water to build tension and draw in the audience. It cuts between this point-of-view and shots of unaware beachgoers to create dramatic irony. The pace of editing and sound increases to indicate a growing threat. The scene then establishes carefree teenage characters by a beach fire, the type of characters usually targeted for violence in films.
Filming day
This document outlines a filming schedule for 4 shots over 2 days. Shot 1 and 2 on Day 1 will be filmed in the garden and handheld with fast camera movement and no props for Shot 1 and no gun or props for Shot 2. Shot 1 and 2 on Day 2 will be filmed inside and on a tripod, with Shot 1 being an extreme close up of a vape pen and Shot 2 being a medium close up with no props and slow left camera turn. Background noise will be minimized and props are limited to a gun and vape pen.
Camera shots and movements
1) The document discusses different types of camera shots and movements used in filmmaking including establishing shots, close-ups, point of view shots, two shots, and shot reverse shots.
2) Camera movements like pans, tilts, dolly shots, and hand-held shots are used to follow or scan a scene. High and low camera angles create different emotional perspectives.
3) Zooming and reverse zooming with the camera allows movement closer or further without physically repositioning, and can imply surveillance or changing perspectives.
