External and Internal Customers
External customers expect value, quality products and services, and helpful assistance when shopping. Not meeting these expectations could damage a business's reputation and reduce sales.
Internal customers, like employees, expect fair pay and a safe working environment. Unfair pay can reduce motivation and morale, while unsafe conditions are a company's responsibility to address.
Empire title
The document describes creating an empire title in Photoshop by copying and pasting the title into Photoshop, using the magic wand tool to remove the background, and cutting out the selected area of just the title. Additional cleanup was needed as it still looked messy, so the creator zoomed in further to refine the selection.
Questionaire result
This document summarizes the results of a questionnaire about horror film/trailers. It found that the target audience is interested in action that relates to real life, as this results in genuine fear. They will not be as scared by or enjoy films that are too far removed from reality. The information suggests the audience prefers gruesome subgenres and expects action in trailers/films. This will help the document's author decide what their viewers want to see for a successful trailer.
Horror magazine - evaluation -deadline
The document summarizes the creation of a film magazine for a horror film. The magazine includes side stories, a main story, an image of the killer from the film, a title, barcode and date. Researching existing magazines helped develop the template. An image of the killer was chosen to sell the story without revealing too much information. The blood on the mask suggests violence and hints at the subgenre, while the low camera angle gives the killer an imposing presence. The magazine is assessed as successfully following horror conventions, though the author wishes to experiment further with additional images and characters.
Horror poster - DEADLINE
This document summarizes the process of creating a film poster. It describes setting up a dark backdrop and using props like a mask, knife, and scissors covered in painted blood. Photos were taken with these props and a model to advertise the film's storyline and genre conventions of horror. The chosen image was edited in Photoshop and inserted into a poster template. Research of other film posters helped influence the design and layout choices to fit genre expectations. The end result was a poster that developed through an iterative creative process.
Mood board final trailer
This document discusses planning for a final trailer project and lists horror sub-genres and popular options. It considers either a monster/slasher film like Saw or paranormal thriller like Paranormal Activity for the trailer storyline. Combining genres is an option but complexity must be avoided for a clear trailer.
Postmodernism funny games
Postmodernism challenges traditional boundaries and rules through unexpected combinations and irony. It rejects distinctions between high and low art forms, emphasizes pastiche and intertextuality, and is playful. The term "Postmodern" was first used in the 1870s to describe a style of painting, and later applied to culture, music, architecture, society, law, literature and film. Influential postmodernist philosophers include Martin Heidegger, Jacques Derrida, Michel Foucault, Jean-François Lyotard, Fredric Jameson, and Douglas Kellner.
Mood board final trailer
The document lists various horror sub-genres and moods that could inspire a trailer for a final project. It notes that monster movies/slashers and paranormal/psychological films are popular options. The creator has decided their trailer will focus on either a monster/slasher or paranormal/psychological story, though combining the two is an option if not too complicated for a trailer.
haloween analysis
The document discusses structuralism and how it relates to analyzing the Halloween (1978) movie trailer. It provides examples of how structuralism explores how meaning is constructed through symbols and signs within a culture. It then analyzes the Halloween trailer based on its iconography, use of structuralism, and adherence to thematic paradigms of the slasher horror genre. Key elements analyzed include the masked killer's hidden identity, use of a knife as a symbol of their evil nature, and how the non-diegetic music builds tension. It also examines how the relationship between the murderer's two identities as a child and adult fit the tropes of a psychopathic slasher villain.
Haloween analysis
- Structuralism explores how meaning is constructed within a culture through systems of signs and symbols. It examines how the positioning and context of objects can influence their meaning.
- The Halloween trailer uses iconography and structuralism to adhere to the codes of the slasher horror genre. Shots of a masked killer stabbing a victim with a knife establish the psychopathic killer trope.
- Non-diegetic music builds tension as the killer stalks victims. Contrasting lighting draws attention to the masked killer and their prey. The murderer's dual identity as a child and adult subverts expectations and suggests a troubled psyche.
evaluation the lesson
The document provides an evaluation of a student's work on a horror trailer project. It discusses various aspects of creating the trailer that went well and could be improved. It notes that planning shot types and continuity between filming days is important for realism. Feedback indicated more dramatic scenes were needed to build tension. For future projects, the student learned to consider consistency, music, storyline, and market research to create a trailer that matches popular horror preferences.
Pitch ideas
This pitch proposes a horror story where a woman named Nancy contacts what she believes to be her deceased mother's spirit, but is actually being manipulated by something else. As the entity takes advantage of Nancy and her family, horrifying events unfold. Nancy must fight to save herself and her loved ones from the growing threat, and win her life back from the entity that is torturing her.
Evaluation the lesson
1) The document evaluates a horror trailer created by the author and their group that was intended to evoke certain emotions and link to feminist and poststructuralist film theories.
2) While the group planned each shot purposefully, additional shots and angles were added during filming to build tension, though this wasn't part of the original plan.
3) Feedback indicated the trailer was generally effective but could have benefited from more dramatic and suspenseful scenes throughout to further engage the audience.
Horror
The document analyzes horror movie trailers from three different sub-genres:
1) The Conjuring is a paranormal horror trailer that uses handheld camera shots and fast editing to build tension. It shows an old, isolated house to set the scene.
2) Shaun of the Dead is a comedy horror trailer that uses shots of zombies to add humor, such as them dancing identically. It makes a scary situation funny.
3) World War Z is a sci-fi horror trailer that uses shots of a family in a car to make the viewer relateable. It cuts between shots of zombies chasing people to create suspense.
