Horror trailer evaluation powerpoint
The document discusses the process of creating a horror film trailer for a class project. The filmmakers initially considered stories about a serial killer reporter or students filming a trailer where their teacher wants to kill them. They took a postmodern approach by including horror conventions like blood and gore in a comedic way. The trailer also featured the "final girl" trope by killing off the promiscuous female character first. The target audience was teens and young adults aged 15-25. Various title options were tested on the audience, and "Deadline" was preferred over "The New Girl" as a more attractive horror film title.

The movie idea is about a psychopathic woman who is a police officer by day and a serial killer by night, targeting male criminals. Her motivation stems from witnessing her father physically abuse her mother as a child. The opening scene would show a flashback to this trauma as a child, then cut to the present with the woman walking from a school covered in blood after killing her latest victim.
Research essay
The document discusses the author's interest and existing knowledge in horror games and visual novels. They enjoy psychological horror games that focus on narrative over jump scares. They are familiar with popular titles like Silent Hill and P.T. They also enjoy visual novels for their storytelling aspects. The author asks questions about themes in psychological horror, common art styles, the role of music, and what modern games are missing. They plan to research these topics to inform an essay and a potential horror-themed visual novel for their final major project.
Group research
The group chose the horror genre for their research project. Horror films are designed to frighten audiences and have a long history dating back to ancient folklore. Some of the earliest horror films included Nosferatu in 1922. Horror films were distributed by major studios like 20th Century Fox and Warner Bros. and featured conventions like isolated settings, dark colors, sudden sounds, and weapons to indicate violence. Successful modern horror films like IT and Saw used younger casts to create surprises and frighten audiences. The Conjuring was a popular horror film distributed by Warner Bros. that analyzed trailers and posters showed dark colors, jump scares, and stories of demonic possession to evoke fear in viewers.
Pitch first draft

The document discusses research for a production aimed at Generation Z audiences who enjoy horror/slasher films. It notes that this demographic watches these films the most and they are also relatively cheap to produce. Horror films have been very profitable. The production will be in the style of 1970s British public service announcements, which were influenced by horror films and shared similar tropes. It will spoof a "How to Survive a Homicidal Slasher" PSA. The film will start like a typical slasher before switching to a PSA format that provides "rules" to survive. Scouting locations, lighting, makeup effects, point-of-view shots, and casting with few actors playing multiple roles are

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
