This document discusses potential shots from a film to include in a trailer. Several shots are evaluated: One shot is rejected because the character's back is to the audience. Another is too blurry. One shot of a villain is deemed suitable because it depicts iconography like blood that characterizes a villain. A chase scene through an eerie area is proposed for inclusion in the trailer.

1. PRINT SCREENS OF SHOTS FOR
OUR TRAILER

2. I felt that this clip wouldn’t
work as the character had
her back towards the
audience and we wanted
the audience to see the
chain which is symbolic as it
is the main symbol in our
trailer.
This clip is blurry, therefore
we do not want to use it in
our trailer as we aim for all of
our shots to be sharp.
This is a sinister shot which
I believe I could use in the
trailer as she meets the
stereotypical aspects of a
villain with the blood
which is iconography. Also
the sense of the
‘unknown’ or the ‘other.

3. I believe that this
shot could have
worked in our trailer,
however the villains
hand is in the shot
which gives away the
action as audience
already suspect what
is going to happen.
We intend to use this
shot in our trailer as it
gives a sense of tension
as the victim is laying on
the sofa. They do not
know whether she’s
dead or alive.

4. You can see the characters shoes in
these shots which doesn’t look very
professional as she is supposed to be
a dead person. The best image
would be if she looked as if she’s just
come back from the dead with no
shoes on.
I really like this shot and intend to
use it in my trailer as it is sinister and
shot from a low angle which
connotes dominance and authority
the villain has.

5. I think that this shot is
effective and could work in
our horror trailer as it is shot
at night time which links to
the typical horror genre as no
one is around to save the
victim or hero.
This is the chase
scene in our horror
trailer which is an
eerie area which
connotes violence.
