Deciding on the Genre

To start off on our main task we had a group discussion to decide on what genre to use. We have as a group concluded to use the genre "Horror". to come to this we looked at what makes an interesting and exctitng opening to a film and used some internet research to help and watched a few clips to see.
reasons for choosing a Horror:
  • It is easy to make very effective and experiment with special effects
  • experiment with the use of camera angles and shots
  • experiment with the use of sound
  • gain a better reaction from the audeince, a more shocking reaction from creating tension
  • We as a group are more imterested in "horror" so will have more knowledge on the genre
We will have to overcome many challenges to create a successful opening scene and do plenty of research and team work to achieve our goals, and create a tense atmosphere and feeling.

AS Media - Main Task

The people within my group are Myself, Emma Uddin, Heather Lappage and Sarah Whitehouse. We have decided to stay in the same group from our preliminary task as we worked well as a group and got along well and like the same things so making decisions is easier for us rather then having too many disagreements.
