Ambient lighting such as moonlight and available lighting from street lamps or car headlights will provide lighting in the trailer. The moonlight will make the moon appear large and spooky by emphasizing the darkness of the night. Car headlights will give a more manic and fearful feel as they will beam like a spotlight on the antagonist during an escape scene featuring the character Salina.

Lighting
This document provides instructions for analyzing lighting in images by identifying the type of lighting, locations of key lights, filler lights, and back lights, and interpreting the effects and meanings suggested by the lighting. Students are asked to answer these questions for each example image and told a video on the blog will help explain lighting techniques. The document contains 4 example images for analysis.
Incidious
The camerawork in Insidious is used to disorient and confuse viewers, such as tilting shots during the title sequence. Editing techniques like long takes and cross-cutting are employed to build tension. Mise-en-scene elements, including low key lighting that creates shadows, titles that fade in red, and the movement of figures in shadows also construct an ominous atmosphere and lead viewers to think of the paranormal. Sound is purposefully withheld or includes sudden loud spikes to maintain a feeling of unease and suspense throughout the film.
A lesson in lighting
Three point lighting uses a key light, fill light, and back light to illuminate a subject. The key light is the brightest and determines the lighting. The fill light on the opposite side reduces shadows. The back light highlights the subject from behind. High-key lighting increases the fill light close to the key light brightness, creating a lighter look. Low-key lighting decreases the fill light, resulting in large shadows and contrasts between light and dark areas.
Objects (Holiday Work)
The artist created a series of four monochrome photographs inspired by Andy Warhol and William Eggleston. They placed various objects like comic books on a black sheet to give off a sense of order and repetition. They edited the photos to reduce saturation and posterize them to resemble comic book drawings and reinforce themes of darkness. The last photo featured a phone to represent it as a significant personal object.
Lighting task
This document discusses different lighting techniques for photography, including backlighting, natural sunlight, artificial indoor lighting, and using a flashlight or torch from below the chin to create shadows. Several photos demonstrate how the direction and amount of light affect shadows and the visibility of details in the subject. Light from multiple directions can make the subject less clear, while light through a door crack illuminates only part of the face.
Lighting Research
The document discusses different types of lighting used in film productions, including high key, low key, and ambient lighting. Each type of lighting creates a different tone and effect. High key lighting creates a bright, happy effect and is used to highlight protagonists. Low key lighting accentuates shadows and is used to emphasize antagonists or foreshadow conflict. Ambient lighting creates a natural look. Sudden changes in lighting can symbolize dramatic moments. Examples from films like Cinderella and The Mortal Instruments are given. The author plans to use high key lighting for revelations, low key lighting for antagonists, and ambient lighting for outdoor scenes in their own production.
Myp lighting
This document discusses lighting techniques used in drama studios, halls, and theaters. It outlines three main types of lights - profile spotlights, fresnel spotlights, and floods. Profile spotlights create a hard edge circle of light, fresnels light an area with a soft edge, and floods provide general light. Various accessories like gobos, barn doors, and gels are used to focus, shape, and color lighting to set the mood, enhance sets and costumes, and draw attention to certain areas of the stage. An effective lighting design brings all these techniques together under the direction of the lighting designer and director to create the desired atmosphere for a performance.
The bat
The three sentence summary is:
The poem describes a bat hanging upside down in an attic at night, with its wings wrapped around itself like a hat. While bats appear dead during the day with their slow pulse, at night they fly in crazy patterns near a corner light in the trees. However, their appearance with wings and human-like faces sometimes scares people when they brush up against screens.

Focus notes
This document outlines the lighting design plan for the stage production of "Yerma". It details 64 individual lighting channels that will be used to create effects like warm sunlight and romantic moonlight across different areas of the stage. Each channel is assigned a specific color gel and focus to subtly illuminate parts of the stage. In addition, special lighting fixtures will be used to add dramatic skin tones, highlight spiritual themes in the climax, and provide depth through unusual backlighting during intense moments in the script. The lighting design aims to set a mood and guide the audience's focus through abstract yet meaningful illumination of the stage space.
Lighting plan
Lighting is a key element of film that can influence emotions and perceptions. There are two main types: high key lighting reduces shadows for a brighter look often used in comedies, while low key lighting uses mainly one light source and shadows to create a sense of alienation as seen in film noir. For the film Awestruck, the director used high key lighting outdoors with sunlight and low key lighting indoors at night to establish realistic settings that fit the scenes.
Lighting
The document discusses three types of lighting used in photography: high key lighting, which reduces shadows for a positive mood; low key lighting, which creates drama with dark tones and shadows; and fill lighting, which reduces contrast similarly to how the eye sees. The author plans to use low key lighting for the main image and double page spread to convey a dark, moody tone fitting rock music, and fill lighting for the contents page to draw attention and complement the writing.
Idea’s for main image on our poster
The document proposes ideas for the primary and secondary images on a poster. For the primary image, it suggests a close-up of Amelia with a worried expression, high contrast lighting to make her stand out against a black background, and casual clothing. For the secondary image, it recommends depicting Davina lit by her computer as she works on a laptop, with an assassin standing protectively behind her in low-key lighting to blend into the background and appear mysterious. Both images would showcase characters and scenes from the upcoming film.
Horror Opening
The document provides a detailed description of the opening titles sequence of a film, including timings, visual elements, sound, camerawork, and editing. It describes photos and text fading in and out over different backgrounds, with a building shot and newspaper article also appearing. Tense atmospheric sound plays throughout. Credits are displayed in bold small font centered or to the side of frames.
Flightplan
The document analyzes the opening scenes of the 2005 thriller film Flightplan. It describes how the opening establishes an eerie atmosphere through the use of an empty train, dark lighting, ambient music and isolation of the main character. It discusses how specific shots like the identification of a body and ravens flying off alone in the snow further unsettle the audience. The analysis concludes the opening is effective at drawing the audience in with mystery and generating an unsettling feeling through its conventions of thriller films.
Presentation ben
The document discusses lighting design considerations for a production of Anton Chekhov's play "The Seagull". It proposes using dim lighting throughout to support the sad, melancholy mood of the play. It also recommends front lighting be brighter than above to ensure actors are visible without shadows. Incorporating a moonlight effect could allude to the time of day and provide flood lighting. Color lighting, like red, could highlight references to the seagull theme. Spotlights could illuminate important events and characters, such as Nina's monologue.
Colour call yerma
This document provides a color call and descriptions for lighting cues in a production of the play "Yerma". It lists the lighting fixtures and colors that will be used to convey different times of day, moods, and meanings throughout the play. Pale amber gold and evening blue gels are chosen to represent late sun light and romantic moonlight. Skin tone gel will be used for mood lighting during dramatic scenes. UV and light salmon gels on backlights will add depth and interest. Frosted bulbs and a rippled blue effect will symbolize Yerma's hopes and the stream mentioned in the play. Dim off-white lighting will highlight entrances. The lighting aims to enhance the expressionist and surrealist elements
Lighting plan
Low-key lighting is used in horror films to create tension through a mysterious and dark atmosphere with dim hues and shadows that only partially reveal characters and surroundings. The document discusses how a horror film lighting plan uses low-key lighting to set an ominous tone through a dank look generated with dim lighting, such as using a small lamp for scenes shot in the dark.
Location Ideas
The document discusses potential location ideas for a slasher film, including a forest and lake. For the forest, it notes that the isolated setting allows the killer to attack victims without witnesses and that forests are conventionally used in slashers due to their isolated nature and hiding places for the killer among the trees. It also mentions that forests at night are extremely dark. For the lake, it suggests including it to add fear of nature and the unknown lurking, showing teens recklessly playing by the lake and using reflections on the lake's surface to increase fear and paranoia of something being in the water.
Chosen Sub-Genre.
The document discusses the group's choice to create a slasher film for their portfolio. They chose the slasher genre because it is thrilling and frightening for audiences. They hope to mirror this fear through their trailer and create a realistic and scary antagonist like Jason from Friday the 13th. The group was inspired by violent slashers like Texas Chain Saw Massacre, which was banned in some countries for being too graphic. They want to film chase scenes and montages like those in Nightmare on Elm Street to build excitement. Early ideas for their masked antagonist include a balaclava or hockey mask wielding an axe in a forest setting. As students, they also want to relate to the teenage protagonists typically seen
Early Ideas
A promotional poster for a horror film will depict the killer as a backlit silhouette holding an axe, using low camera angles and direct address to appear intimidating and as if coming for both victims and the audience. The poster aims to advertise a film in which a group of reckless teens go camping in a forest where a girl went missing in 1990, unaware that a killer lurks in the trees waiting to add to his victim count.
Magazine Analysis
The magazine masthead uses a bright yellow color and dripping paint font to stand out from competitors and represent the horror genre in a unique way. The main image features Jason Voorhees to attract fans of Friday the 13th, and the left third highlights exclusive interviews and film content through promotional images and captions. Additional text and colors are used throughout to consistently brand the magazine and tease the extensive horror coverage found inside.
Poster Analysis 2
This poster for the slasher film "Stage Fright" effectively conveys key elements of the film's narrative and tone through its visual design and use of symbolic colors. The poster features the main character and antagonist's weapon but not his face, teasing viewers. Red dominates to symbolize blood and danger. Though few costume details are shown, the antagonist's black leather glove implies a mysterious and threatening killer. The theatrical stage setting and tagline "Sing your heart out" foreshadow brutal killings during a performance. Overall the poster provides just enough intrigue to draw in viewers while leaving some mystery unresolved.
Horror Sub-Genres
This document outlines conventions of various horror sub-genres including slasher, possession, psychological, and gothic. It discusses common elements like the male antagonist in slasher films typically wearing dark clothing and wielding memorable weapons. Possession films often involve levitation and use of religious objects during exorcisms. Psychological horrors frequently employ plot twists and flashbacks. Gothic settings typically feature run-down mansions and castles with Victorian interiors lit by candles.
Poster Analysis 1
The poster follows conventions of horror movie posters by featuring the antagonist Jason prominently and in a threatening pose, using dark colors and lighting to create an ominous tone. It includes essential information like the title, tagline, and release date while strategically placing institutional details at the bottom. The poster effectively draws attention to Jason's weapon and establishes the setting of Crystal Lake to build intrigue around the dangerous events of the film.

Camera Analysis
The document discusses camera shots and techniques used in slasher films to portray antagonists and victims. For antagonists, low angle long shots, medium close-ups, and close-ups are used to make them appear taller, more dominating, and scary. High angle shots are commonly used for victims to portray them as vulnerable. Close-ups of victims show their fear through crying and screaming. The document also discusses establishing shots, over-the-shoulder shots used to trap victims, and quick cuts during montages to build anticipation for the audience. These techniques will be used for inspiration in constructing the trailer and poster.
Original Brief.
The document outlines a promotional package for a new horror movie that will consist of three pieces: a slasher trailer, poster, and magazine cover. These elements will share symbiotic imagery, color, fonts and design choices to appear cohesive and increase marketing appeal. The group chose the horror genre as it is exciting and thrilling, focusing on the slasher subgenre. The promotional package will advertise an original slasher film that follows conventions like jumps scares, blood, and gore. Individuality will be highlighted through combining each group member's ideas to make the slasher stand out from competition.
Trailer overview
The document analyzes common elements found in trailers for slasher films. It discusses the frequent use of diegetic sounds like screams and weapons to create fear and tension. Non-diegetic soundtracks also aim to mirror the mood, starting calm but becoming increasingly ominous. Stab sounds specifically are used prominently to emphasize moments of violence. The trailers typically feature reckless teenage characters in isolated natural settings to set up danger and punishable behaviors. Camerawork accelerates to build suspense through a high-energy montage of glimpses into the action and thrills to come.
Chosen Characters.
The document introduces the main characters in a student film project. Ikechi is cast as the antagonist due to his tall stature and outgoing personality. His role is to go on a raging killing spree. Stanley is cast as the "joker" for his outgoing and humorous personality. Bradley is one of the more intellectual characters who survives alongside Salina. Antonia is cast as the "sacrificial lamb" due to her small size making her vulnerable. Salina is cast as the "final girl" for having dark hair and a serious demeanor. Shauna enjoys spontaneity and does not voice her opinions loudly.
Questionnaire Analysis
This document summarizes the results of a questionnaire about slasher films. It asked questions about favorite films, preferred genres, cover characters, weapons, pricing, settings, and killer characteristics. The most popular films were Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Friday the 13th. Respondents preferred gore and action over other genres.

Lighting ideas and inspiration
- 2. Ambient & Available Lighting: Throughout our trailer there will be ambient lighting. This will be mainly from the moon and also available lighting from nearby street lamps or the car headlights. The use of the ambient lighting makes the moon appear large and spooky, as it emphasises the dark of the night. Furthermore, the car headlights give a more manic and fearful feel as the escape scene with our character Salina will show her headlights beaming towards the antagonist like a spotlight.
