A group of teens plan a holiday at an isolated countryside house to escape the city for their last summer together before university. Upon arriving, strange things begin to occur and one of the locals had warned of a masked killer called "Grissom" who is slaughtering people with an axe in the area. As victims start piling up, the teens realize they should have heeded the warning and now must fight to survive the night and uncover the killer's identity before they become the next targets.
Short film pitch
The document outlines a pitch for a short film called "The Gatekeeper". It describes the main character getting mugged and dying, finding himself in a plain white room with a gatekeeper who says he is in heaven. The gatekeeper goes through the man's bad deeds while he argues his good deeds, and the film ends with the gatekeeper deciding if he can enter heaven. It provides details on the main character being slightly clueless, the modernized heavenly setting, a dreamy comedic style with dark humor, ominous then calming music, and a target age group of 16-29 who enjoy dark humor.
Film idea
Character 1 hears strange noises at home and believes their house is being invaded. They arm themselves with household items and search the house, finding their friend in one of the rooms. Relieved, they go outside and see an actual group of robbers approaching the house.
The short film is meant to be a tense thriller told from the perspective of Character 1, a paranoid and easily frightened person who works a boring office job. The realistic setting of their home is meant to heighten the suspense and make the threat of invasion feel relatable. Stylistic choices like dark colors, blue tinting, and diegetic sounds further the isolated and tense atmosphere. The target audience is teens and young adults who enjoy susp
Foreshadowing power point (1)
This document discusses foreshadowing and how to identify it in texts. It defines foreshadowing as subtle hints an author provides about future plot developments. Some techniques authors use include descriptive words that reveal characters' emotions and ominous music in movies and TV shows. Examples are given from Peter Rabbit, where Mrs. Rabbit warns the children not to go in Mr. McGregor's garden, foreshadowing danger. Students practice identifying foreshadowing in short passages and learn it involves noticing clues about events to come.
Lit circles Character Archetype
This document outlines roles and activities for student literature circles discussing the short story "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson. It includes directions for plot summarizer, connector, illustrator, story mapper, and character archetype roles. Students will read the story, discuss in their roles, and then share as a whole group. The document provides structure for comprehending the short story through student engagement and collaboration.
Fmp initial plans 2
The document provides an initial reaction and plans for a creative brief that allows the creator to develop whatever project they want without limitations on time or format. Some initial ideas mentioned are a trailer, poster, and psychological horror or parody documentary. The creator recognizes being ambitious with ideas but challenges with execution. A mind map is then shown outlining potential plot ideas involving a sociopath named Arthur whose routine is disrupted by another character named Jack. Colors, styles, and moods from films like American Psycho, We Need to Talk About Kevin, Silence of the Lambs, and Bronson are analyzed in a mood board for how they convey characters and influence the creator's final product.

G321: Thriller Planning AS media
This is our AS media planning four our final thriller film. We have included many aspects of the planning into this powerpoint, such as the shot list, storyboard and potential ideas.
Foreshadowing flashback
The document provides information about literary devices such as flashback, foreshadowing, and symbolism.

Verbal and non- verbal linguistic devices in Pinter’s ‘ The Birthday Party’.
This document discusses the use of verbal and non-verbal linguistic devices in Harold Pinter's play "The Birthday Party". It provides background on Pinter and an overview of the plot of the play. The document then analyzes several specific linguistic devices used in the play, including repetition in dialogue, lack of cohesion/coherence in interrogations, and use of pauses/silences. It concludes that while Pinter's dialogue sounds natural, it is actually highly stylized and tightly controlled to create dramatic effect.
Audio Task PP
The document summarizes initial research and planning for an audio story project. The writer is considering telling a ghost story set in the haunted SK Pierce Boarding House. Research into productions like "The Archer" and "War of the Worlds" provided ideas for crafting suspense and setting the scene without visuals. The writer has settled on a drama format and ideas for creepy sound effects and a psychological thriller plot where two writers researching at the boarding house start being affected by buried bodies on the property. Potential challenges include finding actors and creating a score, but the writer is otherwise enthusiastic about building on the documented history of the real-life location. More research is needed on audio production and developing a full script.
Narrative media concept
The document discusses various narrative theories and structures that can be applied to films, books, and plays. It summarizes Todorov's narrative theory of equilibrium, disruption, recognition, repair, and new equilibrium. It also discusses Vladimir Propp's analysis of Russian folktales and his identification of 7 character roles and 31 narrative functions. The document then discusses how the filmmakers chose not to strictly follow these theories for their short film, instead using a nonlinear, open structure to reflect the main character's mental illness and leave the audience questioning.
The fault in our stars powerpoint
The document provides details on the planned title sequence for a film adaptation of The Fault in Our Stars. It will feature a voice over from the character Augustus reading a letter while the character Hazel is seen being pushed by a nurse, without fully introducing the characters.

On the night of the show, Hector is nervous about performing, especially since James is also in the competition. The story will explore how their friendship withstands the challenges of this conflict.
Inspiration from films
The document discusses potential ideas for films inspired by Notting Hill and other romantic period films. The proposed idea is a wartime romance set in the 1940s-1950s and filmed in Hyland's Park. The story would follow a woman waiting for her husband to return home from World War 2. She receives letters from him and listens to the radio for updates on the fighting. The document outlines initial scenes of the woman arriving at her home, which would double as the park mansion, and looking at a photo of her husband while listening to the radio.
THE KIND AND CRUEL - 5 MIN SHORT FILM

The film will take place in the college setting and a dark room where Al is held, using lighting, music and some black and white scenes to build mystery, drama and tension as Al's fate remains unknown. The target audience is niche indie fans, young adults and teenagers who will engage with the dark themes and college setting.
Writing a story
This document provides guidance on how to write short stories for ages 7-11. It discusses including key elements like settings, characters, events, and resolutions.

Finally, the document recommends planning the story using a storyboard before writing.
Jealousy
Jealousy is the cause of all conflict in Shakespeare's play Othello. Without jealousy, the world would be devoid of emotion and differences between people, creating a seemingly perfect but ultimately boring world without potential for interesting stories or relatable experiences, as shown in the play and in the novel The Giver.
Audio task 2 2021
The document summarizes the planning and initial research for an audio story project. The student is considering telling the story of "The Grey Lady of East Riddlesden Hall" as a horror soundscape. They have researched existing audio formats and sound effects production. Their current plan is to open with a narrated telling of the ghost story and then transition into a soundscape as someone explores the haunted location. Potential sound effects are discussed. The student feels it will be a creative challenge but worries about recording enough sounds and mixing the atmosphere effectively. More research on plot layout and background music is still needed.
The Birthday Party(1958)
The Birthday Party by Harold Pinter is an absurdist play that leaves the audience feeling unsettled. It depicts the arrival of two mysterious men, Goldberg and McCann, at a boarding house to interrogate Stanley about his identity. Through contradictory dialogue and a lack of expository information, the play creates an atmosphere of ambiguity, uncertainty, and menace. Stanley becomes a victim as Goldberg and McCann psychologically break him down, reflecting the destruction of the individual voice in society. The play uses jokes and humor to create tension and force the audience into an uncomfortable position of siding with either the aggressor or victim.
Audio Pro-Forma
The document provides a summary and analysis of several existing audio products that were researched, including a haunted house soundscape, an audio of making mince pies in a kitchen, and a Doctor Who audio drama. Key points made about each include descriptions of the sounds, music, and dialogue used; evaluations of what was effective and could be improved; and aspects the researcher aims to incorporate into their own audio project. The researcher indicates they want to create a similar immersive audio story without narration for their work by using sounds like footsteps, thunder, and creaking doors.

Horror films often deal with viewers' deepest fears and the intrusion of evil forces into everyday life. They attract large audiences by exploring the dark side of existence. Two plot ideas presented are: 1) A group of friends unleash an evil spirit during a Ouija board session at a sleepover that kills them one by one as they hide. 2) A couple investigating a reportedly haunted asylum encounter malevolent spirits and meet tragic ends as they try to escape. Key elements like creepy sounds, dim lighting, and suspenseful editing are discussed for an effective horror film trailer.

A couple buys an old abandoned foster home in the woods to start their family. While exploring, they discover a hidden basement containing diaries and toys from the foster children. One diary describes horrific torture by a masked man. Reading about the man accidentally raises his curse. Strange events begin occurring as the man stalks the couple in the house. He captures them and subjects them to torture in the basement. Their screams for help go unanswered as no one else is around to hear. The film ends with the man preparing to reveal his identity but keeps it hidden, speaking only a cryptic slogan for the film.

The plot involves two teenage girls who decide to perform an online midnight ritual that summons an evil entity into their home. They must try to survive the night without encountering the "midnight man". The production elements discussed include using a realistic suburban family home setting, low-key lighting, realistic costumes with darker colors for the possessed character, incorporating jump scares and tension-building elements through cinematography, sound design, and fast-paced editing.
Genre conventions
Typical horror film settings include isolated, abandoned, or hidden dark places that people normally would not visit, such as abandoned houses, creepy forests, or warehouses. Horror films commonly use dark colors like black and red, as well as dark lighting and shadows. Key props include costumes, weapons, and other gruesome items that help identify villains. Paranormal horror films feature iconography such as ghostly symbols, unusual events in dark places, and "home video footage" to make the audience feel helpless.
Film ideas
The document outlines ideas for four different film genres: thriller, slasher, supernatural, and thriller again. The first thriller idea involves a boy receiving threatening texts from an unknown sender. The slasher idea follows a protagonist who investigates strange noises and is killed. The supernatural idea features strange sounds in a house at night. The last thriller proposes a story where someone finds a creepy talking doll that threatens them. For each, conventions like music, lighting, camerawork and sounds are discussed to build tension and scare audiences.
Production concept
1) Two teenage girls are babysitting when one convinces the other to try an online midnight ritual. They perform the ritual but break the rules, angering a supernatural entity.
2) Strange events begin occurring in the house, like lights turning off and a voice whispering names. The girls try to find answers but discover the fuse box is destroyed.
3) Trapped in the house, they realize the entity is still present and now targeting them. They must survive the night without encountering the vengeful supernatural force.
Paranormal Activity 4
This movie explores themes of demonic possession within a normal suburban setting. It follows a teenage girl named Alex and her family who discover their neighbor's child is being cared for by them after his mother falls ill. Strange events begin occurring, captured by cameras the teens have set up, and the neighbor child draws a symbol associated with witchcraft on Alex's younger brother. The film has an open-ended narrative that could continue the story in another installment. It primarily targets teenagers and adults interested in paranormal films. The trailer captures the found footage style through cuts when camera signals are lost and chronicles the increasing strange occurrences through the point of view of the main character.
Harry ir
The document discusses several horror films that provide inspiration for an original student film (OTS). It summarizes the plots of The Cabin in the Woods, The Conjuring, Ouija, You're Next, and Unfriended. Key ideas discussed include using an isolated setting, supernatural elements, masks/axes as threatening props, and low-key lighting to set a dark atmosphere. The document considers how elements from these films could inform the mise-en-scene, storyline, and genre conventions of the student's own film project.
Analysis of 5 similar films
The document provides an analysis of the openings of 5 similar horror films: The Conjuring, Insidious, Paranormal Activity 4, The Possession, and Ouija. It discusses how each film establishes characters, settings, and a sense of unease through their use of titles, music, camera work, lighting, costumes, and other technical elements in the opening scenes. Characteristics like dark and ominous logos, scary dolls or shadows, isolated settings, and unsettling music and editing help set the tone and imply the genre of each film from the very beginning.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Pitch (1)
- 1. THE PITCH
- 2. RESEARCH The genre of what I am hoping to film is horror. They often deal with viewers fears or nightmares of the unknown. The plot is generally of the supernatural origin in to the everyday world. Sometimes the horror genre overlaps with fantasy and thriller genres. Generally they are set in isolated areas such as the woods, old houses or churches as this contrasts with the idea of a church being a safe place.
- 3. PLOT IDEAS • Plot idea 1: set of teenagers are sat having a camp fire in a field when it starts raining so they run and shelter under more trees when they hear a scream and a dog barking. They go to explore to find a woman killed and her dog stood barking around her. They run to find help when a male dressed in dark clothes stop them in their tracks to ask where they are running to, he tries to grab one but they think they get away until they turn around to one person missing. • Plot idea 2: 2 sisters are looking after an elderly ladies house while she is away for the week visiting her sister in Australia. While the sisters are getting to sleep they hear doors slamming and somebody on the creaky stair case they think nothing of it as they think its just the other sister getting up. However the next night they share a room and both hear it. They get up to see nothing but hear children laughing and playing, they investigate it to be an old children's home in the Victorian times when lots of children died and their souls remained.
- 4. SOUND IDEAS • Plot 2: Children laughing/playing Creaky staircase Doors slamming
- 5. LOCATION Plot 1: For plot one I was thinking about filming it in some woods. Possibly in the Tameside area or somewhere else which is dark and open spaced for people to run and able to start a small camp fire Plot 2: For plot 2 I was thinking about filming it in an old house/building where can be portrayed as a house which was a children's home. Some may also be filmed in a library somewhere in Tameside for when the sisters are tracking down the history of the house.
- 6. TYPICAL DIRECTION Usually in horror movies they have low key lighting with a mixture of fast pace editing and also slow pace as they want to build up tension about what is going to happen but when something is happening it will suddenly change to fast paced. This is usually achieved with jump cuts to confuse the audience. The make up of the actors will be natural as there are no actual supernatural presence in the trailer just connotations of them. They usually use close ups to show the emotion of the subject or they use establishing shots to show the supernatural presence.
- 7. ANCILLARY TASKS I will link all of the tasks together by using a consistent house style throughout. There will be an emphasis on the main characters in all of the tasks and use fonts which are similar and also which are linked with the genre of horror, all of these will help the audience associate all of the tasks together.
- 8. WHAT WILL I NEED? I will need to be able to find a suitable location and have permission to use the location to film in. I will also need to be able to find good actors for the cast. I will need to be able to show a clear beginning middle and end of the film so the audience will find it easy to understand. A high quality camera will be needed to be able to film the trailer and will need a good editing software. To make the sound effects I will need to be able to use a software which will help me create a score so I would need to use a software such as garage band.
