Respondents expect horror trailers to use fast-paced editing and camerawork like close-ups, match cuts, and point-of-view shots. They want to see teasing glimpses of a film's storyline, characters, and scary or tense moments without revealing full plots. In terms of sound, respondents anticipate non-diegetic dramatic music and limited dialogue with added sound effects. Regarding horror film mise-en-scene generally, low-key lighting, isolated settings like woods or abandoned buildings, and props like weapons are commonly anticipated elements.

Evaluation 4
Media technologies played a key role throughout the creation of the promotional package. Premier Pro and Photoshop were used to edit footage and create graphics. YouTube and Google provided inspiration from existing horror films and magazines. Skills with these programs improved over time, allowing for more professional and sophisticated end products. Media technologies were essential for researching, planning, producing, and promoting the various elements of the package.
Magazine analysis 2
This front cover analysis of the film magazine 'Empire' promotes the sequel to the film 'The Dark Knight'. The cover uses horror conventions through its dark colors and typography. The main image of the Joker is dark and mysterious, highlighting his importance to the narrative. Sell lines about the director and other films attract the target audience of film enthusiasts. Overall the cover employs simple yet effective layout and design conventions to promote the featured film through its unsettling visuals and relevant information.
Magazine overview
The document analyzes conventions used in the front covers of six film magazines that promote horror genre films. Some key conventions discussed include:
- Featuring the main antagonist or villain rather than the protagonist to intrigue audiences. For example, "The Joker" is featured to advertise "The Dark Knight."
- Using direct address and ominous imagery like blood to create a sense of fear and intrigue audiences to learn the characters' fates.
- Employing dark colors like black, red, and blue to create a mysterious, evil mood.
- Placing the masthead prominently at the top so readers know what magazine it is before being drawn in by the cover image.
-
Poster overview
The document analyzes six movie posters for possession horror films. It finds that all the posters share common elements like a dominant image, title, and slogan. Nearly all feature an innocent child protagonist who becomes possessed, terrifying audiences by threatening families. The child characters often have their faces hidden or are turning into the background, suggesting their innocence is being consumed by evil. Imagery of decaying hands, ghostly figures, and distorted bodies aim to terrify without using masked killers or blood. Color palettes of red, black, and white create a sinister feel. Overall, the posters effectively promote their films as possession horrors through frightening visuals and consistency in design conventions.
Poster analysis
The poster analysis summarizes 3 movie posters:
Poster 1 for The Orphan depicts a young girl named Esther with sinister implications from her tight hair, black bows, and choker suggesting she is evil.
Poster 2 for Sinister shows a young girl smearing blood on a wall while a masked figure's face is obscured in the blood, implying torture and children being antagonists.
Poster 3 for The Possession features a young girl named Em levitating in a nightgown in front of a mysterious glowing box, suggesting her possession is entering her body, while the tagline "Pray for her" implies a religious theme of exorcism.
Questionnaire analysis
The document contains the results from a questionnaire conducted to gather information about the target audience for a student horror film project. The results showed that more females than males were interested in horror films. Most respondents were between the ages of 16-20 or 31-35. The majority watched films every week or everyday and watched horror films every month. Nearly 75% said horror was their favorite genre and possession stories interested them most. Almost all preferred watching trailers and posters before films to get a sense of the story. Effective elements of horror according to respondents included antagonists, sound/music, editing/transitions, character deaths, and psychological elements. Favorite films mentioned were Insidious, The Conjuring, Saw, The Orphan,
A history of horror
The document traces the evolution of horror films over several decades from the 1920s to the 2000s. In the 1920s-1930s, silent films relied on costumes, settings and folklore to create fear. The 1940s saw the rise of werewolf and animal films. The 1950s incorporated science fiction elements and focused on nuclear mutation. The 1960s featured psychological thrillers about normal killers. Supernatural films grew popular in the 1970s. Slashers dominated the 1980s alongside the rise of special effects. The 1990s combined slashers and psychological horror. Gore and supernatural films continued in the 2000s.
Ideas for tagline
The document discusses potential taglines for a promotional package focusing on a child antagonist. Several variations on "Ribbon Ribbon Brightest Blue" are considered, playing on the significance of a blue ribbon worn by the main character. A survey is conducted to test response to top options. The results show most support for "Ribbon Ribbon Brightest Blue...Is It Too Late for Your Family Too..." which is selected as the final tagline.
Film magazine name ideas
The group brainstormed ideas for the name of their film magazine and came up with 20 potential names. They selected the top 5 names based on effectiveness and conducted a survey of 40 people from their target audience to determine the most favored name. The results showed that "Cinemix" was overwhelmingly the most popular choice, receiving over 50% of the votes. Based on this positive feedback from their target audience as well as its clever connection to cinema and movie snacks, the group decided to name their magazine "Cinemix".
Practice+shots
1) The document discusses various photo shoots for a magazine cover and poster featuring two young girls. Early shots were of poor quality and did not achieve the desired expressions.
2) Attempts to capture one girl's reflection as possessed in a mirror and shots of the girls in the woods were also unsuccessful due to poor lighting, blurred images, and unintended backgrounds.
3) Photos trying to depict the girls as possessed came out with different facial expressions and heights, looking unprofessional.
4) The final selected images of one girl were determined to best capture the desired possessed look and facial expressions while maintaining consistency across pieces.
1 horror sub genre [repaired]
Gothic horrors were first made in the 1920s and were the first films to use soundtracks. Early female monsters in these films tended to be beautiful rather than scary, defying horror conventions. Psychological horrors rely on fears and instability to build tension using realistic threats like assault. Slasher films from the 1990s featured masked killers stalking victims with weapons like knives. Possession films center around families with a possessed member and use religious figures to confront the evil spirit.
Conventions+of+supernatural
This document discusses the supernatural horror sub-genre of possession films. It notes that possession films center around supernatural elements like demons and deal with life's unanswered questions. Common conventions include using dark and mysterious colors like red, black, and white to create tension. The main character is often the one who is possessed and becomes the antagonist, while religious characters try to perform exorcisms. Isolated, historic locations like abandoned houses are also typical settings. Examples are given of possessed characters from films like Insidious and Sinister, as well as common stock locations and color schemes used in posters and DVD covers.
Introduction to characters
This document introduces the main characters in a narrative:
- Rachael Mcinerny and Sam Copland will play the parents Rebecca and John Gregg. Rachael works in a pub and Sam is an assistant manager.
- Their daughters will be played by Lillian (Lily) Mcinerney and Melisa Mcinerney, who are sisters in real life. Lily will play the adopted daughter Elle, who is the possessed antagonist. Melisa will play the real daughter Madeline, who also becomes possessed.
- Casting real-life relatives Rachael, Lily and Melisa allowed for natural bonds between the characters playing family. This made filming flow better.
Shooting+schedule
The shooting schedule documents the dates, locations, and scenes planned for filming a movie about a woman who adopts a troubled child. Key dates and locations include filming scenes at the family home on November 22nd about adopting another child, signing adoption papers on November 24th, and taking the adopted child Elle home. Later scenes involve discovering Elle may have killed her biological mother and involve the family and forest locations.
Film magazine ideas
The group brainstormed ideas for the name of their film magazine and came up with 15 options. They selected the top 5 names and conducted a survey of 40 people from their target audience. The results showed that "Cinemix" received over 50% of the votes and was the clear favorite. As a result, the group concluded that "Cinemix" would be the name of their film magazine since it was strongly preferred by their target audience.
