My group consists of: Me (Matthew Lloyd), Callum Wardle, Scott Milner and Ewan Griffiths. We decided to do Horror thriller film and as a group, analysed: A nightmare on Elm street, Scream, Halloween and Se7en. These give us an overview of Horror on the whole giving us lots of ideas for our own opening scene. We chose these films due to the feedback from our focus group.
My analysis of A nightmare on Elm street has been posted on this blog and what i found out, is that many horror scene opening sequences consist of settings that most people wouldn't associate with horror films, which creates the enigma of why is this place so significant. As well as that, i found from my research that the lighting has a huge impact on the outcome of the final film as in A nightmare on Elm street, the lighting is flashing (giving a sense of emergency) as well as overall being a low key top lighting, to create an eerie effect as well as to cast shadows all around the room. We will try and incorporate this style of lighting by using lamps and more subtle lights to try and cast shadows in the scenes that the murderer is in, to build up a sense of fear and enigma surrounding him
Where is the evidence? What did you find out? link it to your final idea
