Camera Shotlist

This all may change depending on what shot suits the scene or we may add another scene. The angles of the shots may also change if it doesn't work to plan therefore I will keep an update of my shotlist everytime a change has been made.
Inspiration Trailers
Paranomal activity is a trailer I think would give me ideas for my trailer as it builds up tension and you know straight away the genre of it. The trailer has deep sounds and fast cuts to extreme close ups of the main haunted character which I can think about using for my teaser.
Case 39 is another trailer which appealed to me as they have a lot of shots that are indoors and hiding in closet scenes etc. It also has dialogue in it where the characters are talking which I may use for my trailer. Also they have a wide range of shots which will help me decide on what sort of shots I should go for. The trailer makes it hard to resist to watch the movie, the trailer itself is very horrorfic and makes you clench your fist and makes you jump. This is the reaction I am looking for in my trailer.
Lastly I found the SAW 3D trailer horrofic and the fact that it is 3D making the audience closer to the film by making them feel like its them getting taken. There was a lot of blood, gore and horror in the trailer with a deep voice man talking in the background. This is what I had in mine for my trailer also the background screams of the victims worked well which I will look into more as there will be murder and screams in my trailer.
Feedbacks
- good however it was explained to be explicit and believe the target audience should be 18 and up instead of 15
- a bit too vague the plot isn't so interesting
- great storyboard and moodboard detailed character profile however doesn't seem very realistic
- the whole story line is given away in the teaser trailer from seeing the storyboard
- explanation was very confusing overall nice presentation and great planning however need to make things a bit clearer
- a bit too vague the plot isn't so interesting

Slide 1- Title of our film, we have decided to call our film Demented which may change in future. Before this me and my partner decided to call it Haunted however from feedback of the target audience they prefered Demented as Haunted sounded too vague and boring.
Slide 2- This is another moodboard we have made on PowerPoint with more images that can relate to our film. It has pictures from clubbing, drugs to bodies in boots and canal. The images clearly show the gore and horror to the film and you can see drugs are related.
Slide 3- ‘Sex, parties and drugs is all it took for one girl’s soul to be shredded in the depth of the canal. But will she ever seek revenge; after all they say it’s an eye for an eye, but who knows.’
Our short synopsis has a lot of information to give and gives a foreboding atmosphere. It is to the point with all the details needed of the film.
Slide 4- The target audience for this film will be of both male and female at the age of 15-24. They love to have a thrill and are up for any type of horror films. Mostly attracts to older teenagers and young adults who are either a student or middle classed who watch films to be entertained. Our film has parts to do with sex and drugs it can relate to our target audience. From research I found over 40% of the young have smoked cannabis and 86% of young people support its legalisation. 20% of men and 15% of woman have already had 10 or more partners of my age group. The genre horror suits the age group as young adults are into gore, blood, violence etc. The young adults love to watch their films in cinema with friends. It is a 15 and not a 18 because there is no actual sex scenes.
Slide 5- Key questions we want our audience to think about after watching the teaser. Read questions out
Slide 6 to 8- Storyboard read bullet points of each images and shots. We have midshots, high angle shots, longshots, close up to extreme close up shots and over the shoulder shots. We may rearrange this if it doesn't work to plan. High angle shots are to show the surrounding and also gives a intimidating view. Mid shot is our common shot which will be used to show what each character is doing and when they are exchanging things. Close up to extreme close up will give a horrofic view of the main character and these close ups work well on horror/thriller films.
Slide 9- These are our 3 main characters, they are not from St Marylebone so we all have to get together and make a timetable when we are all free and exchange contact details.
Slide 10- This is the main character, who in the film was a casual teenage girl who loves going parties, chilling with friends. A stereotypical teenager at the age of 19, she is very laid back person who does anything daring to get a bit of attention.
She wears clothes from casual to extremely over the top depending on how lazy she is like most teens and comes from an upper class background. She is more of an outdoor girl with a loud personality and can act very confident when she actually has low self esteem and tries very hard to get her confidence. This all changes after the drugs kick in.
Slide 11- These are the other two main characters who are from a middle class background. They are unemployed typically wear hoodies and tracksuits, they are from the ‘streets’ as they say and make their money illegally and get up to no good.
They earn a lot of money through their dirty work they do and can make others feel intimidating. They are into sex, drugs and money and love wearing clothing such as Nike, Adidas, Ralph Lauren etc.These men are out most of their days having the time of their life making money, going clubs, meeting girls etc. They are a typical thug that believe nothing can harm them and they are always superior and can get what they want when they want.
Slide 12- Most of the filming will be taken in doors such as the bathroom scene, bedroom scene, Lilly getting ready in her room etc. The ones filmed outdoors will be in the regent park region where there is a canal and alleys for a foreboding atmosphere that will work well for our canal scene. We will take our high angle shots from a balcony of a estate in Regents Park. Here is the image of the balcony view.

Film Title
Me and my partner had decided to name our film Haunted however we then decided for it to be called Demented. We where then undecided between the two, so Maria my partner asked 10 boys which they would prefer and I asked 10 girls which they would prefer all of the age group from 15-24. We decided to ask 10 boys and girls to make it even as the film is for both sex.
I had asked two 15 year olds who had said they liked the sound of Haunted, three 17 year old girls who had said Haunted sounded a bit dull and vague and Demented was more chilling. I then asked a 24 year old who had said Demented sounded better however to have a better range of titles rather than two and finally I asked four 20 year olds who liked Demented better for the common reason of Haunted being too boring.
Maria asked three 15 year olds where two liked Demented and one liked Hauned. Four 18 year olds were asked and all had said Demented but even still it could have a better name. She then asked three 22 year olds who said the same and had picked Demented.
So overall from our film title survey Demented was the most common. However we will keep in mind what others had said to keep a wider range of film titles. We will name our film Demented for the moment however this may change as another survey maybe taken with a better range of titles to pick from.

Short Synopsis
My partner and I have decided to create a horror/thriller film with sex, drugs and money included. We came up with our short synopsis and made it short but with alot of information to give. this is our rough synopsis which can be changed and edited:
‘Sex, parties and drugs is all it took for one girl’s soul to be shredded in the depth of the canal. But will she ever seek revenge; after all they say it’s an eye for an eye, but who knows.’
After watching our teaser trailer we thought the common questions raised through the audience would be:
Who is this girl?
Is she innocent?
Why did she get murdered?
What happens at the end?
Why does she seem demented after?
Is she still alive?
Why can't they find her body?
