1st possible poster

For the poster i have decided to take the end shot from the trailer as i feel it gives a myterious feel about the film but and doesnt give a lot away which could be a bad thing btu i have also included a picture of the slenderman in the background with a tag line of ' the slenderman is coming for you' which will catch the audiences eye. Also for the second poster i will be adding another tag line of ' based on a true story' which i have forgotten to add to this poster. By adding this it will appeal to the audience more because true stories attract audiences more because they are intrigued about what actually went on. The release date will be in teh bottom left and the certificate in the bottom right. i have a couple of the actors names in the top right corner as they are the bigger two actors in the film but i will add the smaller actors in a smaller font. i have the directors names in the middle at the bottom, i have chosen the color red as it could make the audience think that it could be gorey and have a lot fo blood. the title faded delusion is in the biggest font as it has large importance to the film also being the last shot.
 In the second poster i will be trying to add more colour and making a simpilar poster.

Soundtrack research

The sort of theme we are going for is horror, this means we have to build the tension with a slow to past pace and with the soundtrack we use. We were thinking of using a heartbeat most of the way through buliding the tension. The heartbeat would be used whilst we are have it at a slow pace when we fade out shots eventuallly bulding up then changing the music to something that has a slow bass to it still with a sort of heartbeat to it but having a faster pace music above it.

certificate

we have decided to use the rating of the 18 because we are going to use crude language which would be inappropriate for the younger views of 15 and under so we feel that the rating of 18 is good for our choice of film. The reason why we have gone with an 18 is because of the sort of horror we are going for. Paranormal activity went for the same type of film and they chose to have a 15 as they didnt have too much bad with it e.g. sex scene , crude language etc.

typical audience

our typical audience member will be male as it is a scary film and it will appeal to this gender more than females stereotypically. The age group we willl be going for will be 18 + this gives us a decent wide range of the older teen to adult.

The 'obey' i have put on this younger adult is the type of thing they wear after doing research and being 18 myself.

the age range we are aiming for love a good scary film but it will have to get the heart pumping and let the audience think too much on what could happen and try to catch them out when they least expect it even with the trailer i am sure we can achieve this. The woman in black trailer is the sort of trailer i would like to aim for as it even has the scare factor in the trailer which attracted me to watch it.

filming problems *snow*

we where meant to be filming on the 12th january 2013 but due to heavy snow. This was bad for us because it effected our contiuenty which would mean we would have to film many shots. The lighting would have been an issue as well as we needed to film with decent light.

Filming news shot

 

me and will needed one shot that we could do in the school area, we found a class room suitable for the news report scene. we felt that this location would be good because the school location and the blank wall behind gives off the feel of a news room. This is effective because it makes the audience feel like they are watching a real news report and this is what we are trying to achieve.

Actors

Alex Valente and Conor Redmond will be featuring in our film as the two detectives as they are good at following instruction and as I worked with them last year I found them good to work with.

i will be playing the main character in the film as i am available me and will have the same time free out of school so it will be easy to film

 William Huck will be playing the CSI detective , slenderman who is a masked character , as me and will have worked together filming previously i feel that we have the same vision also he is good to work with.

Basic storyboard

the impossible trailer

the impossible is about a true story from 2004 about a family battling through a tsunami as they get taken away and apart from each other trying to find each other again. It is a true story based on the family in 2004. The story line: the family go on holiday to and are living in luxury until the tsunami hits the family and they are torn apart.

The trailer starts off with a piano playing giving the audience a feel that everything is 'calm before the storm'
the dad played by Ewan Mcgregor then calls his kids outside which is the first chance for the audience to see the whole family with a mid shot. it then cuts to show clips of the family and how close they are as a family. The music then stopped and the tsunami hit the resort then cuts to the dad shouting 'Lucas' his sons name.
 its fades to a shot of 'This is one family's true story survival' enticing the audience as it is a true story the audience will be attracted to the film. The film is mainly aimed at girls and older people as it is a quite upsetting film. I went to see the film to get an idea of what parts they picked out and the whole storyline not giving too much away but giving the audience an idea of the story.
