My idea for creating the four-minute movie was to
base it off ghost movies such as Grudge, The ring and The shutter which I have
watched enjoyed. So my idea was to base of my short 4 minutes film off these
movies as they hold strong elements of the horror genre. My first place was to
get my team to watch one of the movies so they get some sort of idea how the atmosphere
of the short film should be.
I knew straight away that I wanted to make my main
genre horror along with mystery and psychological. So the short four-minute
movie was a hybrid genre of horror and mystery put together in 1 movie. I chose
these two genres, as I wanted my audience to engage as much as possible while
watch the movie. This is because mystery makes most of the audience want to
guess what’s happening. The psychological genre of the movie is to make the
audience think long and hard about the movie and it's meaning long after the
audience has finished watching it. The horror genre is to build up suspense
during the movie making the audience feel terrified at certain scenes.
I also choice these themes of horror as I would
like to get a better understanding of the genres as these genres are my
least favorites out of all the others genres.
A disadvantage of this is that it may not appeal to
people that hate horror movies that are horror. So it might not appeal to
people that are young and not mature enough as they might not understand
the psychological part of the movie. An advantage is that
with psychological movies they’re always some kind of hidden message and
most of the times more then one meaning.
The audience can interpret the meaning of the movie any way they
want once they have fully watched the movie.
The type of camera styles I might use are different
kind of camera angles such as tilted camera to use in the psychological genre
of the movie as a character could be traumatized. I would also use extreme camera
close ups for jumps scares, as it is has a horror theme scaring the audience
even more and it would be unexpected.
