Who are the audience?
The certification for the trailer is 15 as we believe aiming at this group will allow us to create a trailer that follows the average target audience of horror films because at this certification it allows the companies to make more of a profit because they can target everyone form the age of 15 so there are more tickets that can be sold. This also allows us to not go too over the top with the horror because when movies do this it becomes boring and many people do not like it.
What have you found out about our audience?
We have handed out questionnaires and completed write ups about our results and we finally produced charts that represent our results. (See next post) We have found that
Research about existing products:
We have watched many of the big horror films that have come out such as Scream, Halloween, Insidious 2 and Creep. We then analysed the techniques the editors and directors have used to create the dramatic and scary effects used in these films.
How will you make the film inventive?
Our group is aiming to go against the stereotypes of typical conventions of a horror film, however we will follow one or two typical conventions of horror films so that is still recognisable but then it also keeps the thrills of the old horror films which were so successful. We will be changing things such as the killer’s motive, gender of the victim, etc. Although we are going to follow suit in places such as the location (e.g. Normal houses) .We are looking to get this idea as unique as we possibly can.
