Horror

what is a horror film A horror is an instant of fear and shock feeling jumpy so a horror film is a film that is made for people to jump and feel scared. Horror films are not aimed at kids they are aimed at people aged 15 - 30 because even the elderly will get to frightened of these kind of films.

troops used in horror In horror there is lots themes that make people scared, there are different themes because some people might not be scared of one theme but scared of another

below are some of these troops:

  • Exorcism - an Exorcism is a religion ceremony (manly a christian ceremony) that seeks evil spirits from a person or sometimes from a place, in horror films that use this theme it is ususally a person than a place but can be both.

  • Music Videos

    music video 1 - Burn by Ellie Goulding

    genre of this song is synthpop

    This song is very catchy which makes people listen to this song.this song is about a group of friends having fun without any interutions of there fun so this is what they are tring to sell to the audience.

    Ellie is a popular singer expecialy in the uk and the usa and her music has been used in lots of films and tv shows such as eastender, hunger games catching fire and twilight saga braking dawn part 2. Ellie has also sang at a royal wedding (Willam and kates)

    The use of sound in film and adverts

    Name of film or advert- three the pony

    location - shetland islands

    Mise on scene of the advert - the advert is set on attractive island that is isolated from the main island. this advert has lots of british references such as the lighthouse, a tracktor a farmer and the beach of the shetland island

    I have decided to use the advert for 3 the one with the shetland pony that dances to the soundtrack everywhere by fleedwood mac

    the soundtrack was used because it means everywhere so with the mobile comnpany 3 it means you can connect everywhere

    Diegetic sound - sounds that are visible on screen/ sounds that characters can here.

    examples from the advert- live sounds wind, birds,seals, hooves, the house dragging, tractor, bell of lighthouse and the waves crashing

    non-diegetic sounds - sounds that are the characters such as soundtracks

    examples from the advert - the soundtrack everywhere by fleedwood, voiceover and sound fx foley - the sounds that are recored after the filming

    eg : all of the sounds in this advert were recorded after the filing of the scenes. the sounds would of been recored either in a recording studio or a location where these sounds can be recorded this is because if there sounds were not recoreded after the filming the advert would sound really bad because of the wind and the camera crew talking there would also be alot of seaside nosices.

    Catfish

    This film is about a Young photographer Yaniv "Nev" Schulman who lives with his brother Ariel in New York City. Abby Pierce, an eight-year-old child prodigy artist in rural Ishpeming, Michigan, sends Nev a painting of one of her photos. They become Facebook friends, which broadens to include Abby's family: including her mother, Angela (Wesselman); Angela's husband Vince (Stephen Fogarty); and Abby's attractive older half-sister Megan, who lives in Gladstone, Michigan.

    This is support to be a factual documentary film but some of the film appears to be staged (acted out or faked) EG: the barn scene where the camera is still and we think this because if it was real the camera would be shaking because the people in that scene would of been scared.

    This film was made to show people the internet is not a safe place on things like facebook (social media)

    This film is a documentary, however there is drama, so could be termed as a documentary drama this is a documentary because it was made up of factual material.

    The style of catfish is VERITE’, because it is ‘Hand held’, low budget, deliberately made to look non-professional to give a documentary feel to the film.

    Catfish makes people think about the internet and how strong it can destroy lives in ways people can't think of happening till it happens to them. there is also a TV show which is much different to the film because it tells you who's life it is at the start conpaired to the film the tv show is more like a documentary than the film is.

    In the film lots of people have different opinions on what she has done and what should nev done because of her actions such as some people would say she is a sick person and she should be put in a mental hostal and some would feel very sad because of her real life and that because of the problems in her real life the internet life takes her away from the probelms and its her way of coping with stress.

    Going back to the style of the flim the film makers picked these style to make the film realistic, to give the effect or illusion that the film is based on a true events. The film starts off with choppy
