The document discusses different types of locations that are effective for horror films, including isolated settings like wooded areas, fields, alleyways, and pathways. These locations make audiences feel alone and vulnerable, building suspense. It also discusses urban settings like churches and houses, which are more unsettling because audiences associate these locations with safety and community. Setting horror films in places linked to security can increase fear by making those secure places seem threatening. Examples of different isolated and urban locations that could be used for horror films in the local area are given.

Conventions in a horror movie
Horror movies conventionally use props like weapons to convey violence. Costumes include darker colors and white dresses for ghosts, with ripped clothing showing violence. Settings are usually old, isolated houses filmed with low key lighting to create mystery. Editing alternates between fast pacing during action to create panic and slow pacing to build suspense. Camerawork employs handheld shots for realism, close-ups of facial expressions, and establishing shots of the setting. Diegetic sounds include screams, smashes, and gunshots to demonstrate fear and violence, while non-diegetic music builds suspense.
Horror movie conventions
Horror movies often take place in isolated, dark locations like abandoned houses, barns, and woodlands. Editing techniques like jump cuts and unsettling sounds create confusion and unsettle the audience. Handheld camera shots also make it difficult for viewers to understand what is happening. Visual styles in horror include dark colors and common props like masks and weapons. Lighting is often unnatural with deep shadows. Common horror movie themes include madness, good versus evil, science gone wrong, and a confused sense of reality.
Terminus Pitch
The document outlines the production details of a short film titled "A Fear of Outside" which follows a young man who refuses to leave his room, convinced that the world outside has ended, as he records his days in isolation. The film will be directed by Alasdair Richards and shot to appear as one continuous long take through the use of hidden cuts, with experimental lighting and projections used to reflect the character's fractured mental state. Key roles like director, producer, cinematographer, and sound department are defined, along with influences, tone, technical considerations, and examples of similar long take techniques.
Conventions
The document outlines several key conventions of horror and slasher films. It discusses how horror films typically use isolated or abandoned settings, unnatural camerawork and lighting, eerie sounds and music, and Todorov's narrative structure of equilibrium, disequilibrium, recognition, repair, and new equilibrium. Slasher films often feature an isolated remote location, do not reveal the killer until halfway through or the end, and focus on teenage victims. The document concludes by stating the creators' own film will use a forest setting, multiple killer point-of-view shots, and feature teenage boys and a lone survivor to adhere to slasher conventions.
Assignment 1 SubGenres
This document outlines common conventions and tropes found in horror films, such as haunted house movies like Insidious and Mama. It discusses plot elements, themes, character types, settings, music and sounds, camera techniques, special effects, and narrative structures that are typically seen.

Horror Genre Conventions
This document outlines several key conventions of the horror genre including setting, technical elements, iconography, narrative structure, character types, and common themes. It notes that horror stories often take place in isolated rural settings like farms, woods, or abandoned buildings. Technically, the camera work aims to disorient the viewer through shaky shots and editing creates tension. Iconography in props and monsters evoke fears. Narratives usually follow a hero on a mission to confront a villain and solve a problem, with standard character archetypes like victims and police officers. Common horror themes explore ideas like science experiments gone wrong and childhood trauma.
Horror conventions
Horror films typically feature isolated settings like small, dark, cramped spaces; abandoned houses; lakes; subways; or countryside where the protagonist feels vulnerable without protection. Cinematography aims to add suspense through unnatural camera movements, POV shots, blurred monsters, and diegetic/non-diegetic sounds. Colors like red and black as well as unnatural lighting are used to convey danger, while props like candles, axes, and broken furniture imply haunted or deserted locations. The protagonist is often a victim or hero unsure if they can trust others, as the villain is usually a monster, killer, or normal human keeping viewers guessing.

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Horror Location Shot Types
- 1. Horror Location Shot Types
- 2. Isolated Settings •Effective location for a horror film because it makes the audience feel more alone and therefore vulnerable . •This is good for building suspense; they feel unsafe and expect something to go wrong. •Very foreboding, it is unlikely there will be someone to save the character or a quick way of escaping/ finding safety. •It could be argued they make the film more realistic; an isolated setting could make them feel like it is actually happening without them knowing it is happening because of the remote location. •The following slides give examples of places that give this impression locally
- 3. Wooded Areas/ Forests •Normally isolated, just outside of the urban areas associated with safety. •Sinister looking trees cast shadows and create darkness, which provokes fear of the unknown- the antagonist could be hiding in the shadows. •Examples of areas like this locally include Weston Woods, Norton and Ivel Springs.
- 4. Fields •Flat, open area that makes the audience feel like they can see everything, and would be easily alerted to danger. •In horror films, suspense can be built and prove this statement wrong. •Ideal for chase/ fight scenes. •Examples of this locally could be Arbury Banks, Bygrave Fields and Ivel Springs.
- 5. Alleyways/ Pathways •Thin, narrow and often empty means that these settings create claustrophobia as well as isolation. •They are often darker, foreshadowing dark events and creating fear of the unknown. •Heightens panic during fight scenes or chase scenes. •Examples locally include Pepper Alley and Ivel Springs.
- 6. Urban Settings •Not stereotypically as scary as isolated settings because of the connotations of community and life, therefore safety. •When horror films are set in urban areas, they are more effective in making the viewers themselves feel more unsafe because it turns the places they associate with security into somewhere they feel scared. •It could make the plotline seem more relatable, adding to this fear. •The following slides give examples of these kinds of places in the local area.
- 7. Churches •Found in most regions, a place of religious worship and celebration, often referred to as one of the central points of community. •These positive ideas of the church are challenged in horror films, particularly of the occult sub-genre. •Most churches have graveyards, which connote/ foreshadow death and suggest dark themes. •Examples of this locally include St Mary’s in Baldock and Ashwell or St Paul’s in Letchworth.
- 8. Houses •If a horror film uses a house, it has a similar effect as a church, by making them associate a place of security with fear. It makes the events seem more realistic and therefore more scary. •The architecture/ aesthetic of the house can enhance this, especially if a modern, suburban house is used. On the other hand, gothic architecture links in with the horror genre. Abandoned housing also connotes isolation and fear, so can be effective. •Examples locally include the old houses on Baldock High Street and Buffs Field.
