Response to Horror Film conventions

As our findings of conventions have signaled we have agreed that it is important to use our research and apply it to our final product of our opening. We have listed a few areas in which we may want our own film to take place such as deserted roads, parks, dark houses and alleyways. Our narrative is still undecided however we have agreed that our film will involve an protagonist and antagonist. We have also decided that our character types will most possibly involve a feminine character as they’re most commonly used to portray victims in horror films. We have all come to a conclusion that our horror film must have some elements of iconography present in our final product, one idea was to use POV shots to help emulate the fear and panic the victim feeling or the rush and pleasure the killer is feeling. This will be done to help provide the users with a more of an immersive experience rather than it being all third perspective camera shots.
