Initial Ideas for my trailer (Drafting and Planning)


After analyzing and researching different horror trailers, I want to base my trailer on Paranormal Activity. I like the trailer, and the horror convention it uses such as: The credits such as 'Horrifying', the use of handheld camera, I also liked the use of static before the credits appeared. I also really like the use of editing, such as the cuts to black and the quicken pace, as audience anticipation increases. The woman character 'Katie' is also a very intriguing character as she is very relate-able, and this is what evokes the fear within the audience. I also liked the character of the girl from the ring. The use of Mise-En-Scene in terms of costume in The Ring trailer was very effective in creating a scary young girl. I am planning to have a girl in my trailer who reflects that of the girl from the ring. But I am still yet to look at other 'monstrous' creatures/people in horror films.
