This clip i believed was a great example of how a good trailer should be with it including a variety of conventions that tie in well with a stereotypical horror. However i feel that there are some brief changes that could be made to the trailer but still an effective example to refer to as a guide to help you when commencing with the a2 media studies coursework.

Preliminary

Currently just carrying out our editing now... Such a long Process!

Preliminary Video

Hi everyone, we have just completed our preliminary now, editing next then we will upload our completed preliminary!

Location: In School
Characters: Tyler & Dee
Time: 40 minutes

We had initially found some problems with our filming regarding the limited time scale this had to be completed in. However, we had used the time efficiently to complete the preliminary task. Also, there was a lot of noise nearby where we filmed and was a bit tricky to film when it was quiet.

Horror Movie Killer Research!

Hi people, me and tyler have carried out various research and have been trying to decide on what our murderer's clothing will be. Considering we don't actually see the killer himself, we only take notice to his hand and his murder weapon. A brief idea we thought of was:

• black gloves - therefore suggesting he is not leaving fingerprints and it is a stereotypical part of mise-en-scene in these types of films and will blend in well with the pathetic fallacy.

Tell me what you think about this. Any suggestions would be welcome!!

HALLOWEEN

Halloween's murderer Michael Myers wears a mask over his face at all times. Although the police know his identity and they can easily catch him, he still feels comfortable wearing this mask as its what he wore when he was younger and murdered his family except his mother and baby sister. In a way, this is how Michael feels comfortable when he kills his victims.

His weapon is a large kitchen knife and this weapon is used throughout all of the murders he has committed. Sometimes he uses his hands for strangulation but is more popular for his big, sharp choice of weapon. Michael wants to indicate his pain of all the years he has been locked away by killing people so by using a weapon like this commits a much more suffering and a much more brutal attack.

SCREAM

Screams murderer's, there are various different people who are the killers in each of the 4 movies in which they all wear the same costume. In the film, the mask is typically known as 'Ghost face' and in all four films, this is what the killer would wear. Due to the film being centred around one girl being Sidney Prescott - the killer will kill almost everyone around her that mean something to her to build more tension and make her feel scared as when her turn will be. So the killer wears a full cloak to hide underneath clothing, a mask to hide their face & hair and black boots. They also hide their voice when calling by using a monitor that can change their voice completely.
