Before making our film we looked at the type of audiences that watch horror movies and why they go to watch them. We then figured out what type of audience we would be advertising our film to, this was ages 15-30. We recorded all the research on our blogs. We made posts about certain things that were for horror movies, it was based on horror movies because out opening two minutes was a horror and we wanted to make sure we make it as much like a horror as possible. This helped the production of our film because it gave us a greater idea of what to include and how to do certain things so it would appeal to the audience as much as possible. It was very effective as we found out a lot more information about the genre we chose and gave us a better understanding.
We created a storyboard but it was only very brief. We did not follow it exactly but included most of the things that were noted. There was also camera shots included on the storyboard. We followed this and took a shot in the camera angle that we put down. However we did shot some shots with different camera angles as well so when it came to editing our film we could chose from a selection to make sure we have the best one. We also created a script. The script was not very long, only a sentence or two for certain characters. We felt that we did not need too much dialogue as we wanted to build tension to make people want to watch more than just the opening 2 minutes. The script was followed word for word, this was because they were very short and snappy so did not have to be changed or adapted in any way.
