This is a powerpoint presenting some ideas for my horror opening.

1. Initial Ideas
Horror Film Opening

2. Setting - Abandoned Farm
• Found in Weston Hills
• Different Buildings and areas to
film different angles in
• Easy to get to and bring
equipment to as well
• Looks really creepy/frightening
• Filters help to bring out the
‘horror aspect’ such as sepia
and black and white
• A lot of different areas on the
small farm for different shots
• Spacious and not too cramped
•
•

3. • A group of girls are playing hide and seek
• Nothing is wrong, They are all happy and smiling
• Suddenly, as one of them is hiding a dark figure behind her grabs her and
the screen fades to black
• Police/Crime Scene investigation
• Flashes of photographs appear on the screen with evidence of the missing
girl and her missing sign
• In the background you see the girl
• She is dirt, her dress is ripped and she has blood on her and is holding a
knife
•
Main Idea of the story

4. • Fake Blood
• A large kitchen Knife
• Photographs of Crime scene
• Police Tape
• Parts of a ripped up dress/Skirt
•
•
•
Props
An Example:
(Wouldn’t necessarily be a
school uniform)

5. • I would ideally have 2-3 younger girls feature in my opening
• My younger sister (8 years old) – Has very curly hair which could be used to look
messy and rough if she was to be the main character
• My younger cousin (Female – 5 years old) – she is very innocent and could be used to
portray the innocence of these little girls playing a harmless game of hide and seak
• My sisters friend (Female – 8 years old) – She also portrays this look of innocence that
would contrast with the main character who turns into this evil child.

skirts that really put across a
stereotypical little girl
• Cute and Sweet outfits that portray
innocence
• Pretty & Pink

•
