Drafting and Planning

I have researched some new things to try and look at different scenes of different films in a new way. I have researched some gifs which have shown me some of the most scariest scenes just in a picture.

As you can see this is really effective to be in a movie trailer. If I was to use this in a movie trailer I would make some tension before it to have a build up. I think with this sound would be key as with Diegetic sound there should be sounds like the footsteps of a man and screaming. The lighting is dark which I think its more effective as if there was someone coming you would be able to see there feet knowing the time is near for when the person gets dragged. So not showing this keeps the audience alarmed. I think the wide-shot is good as this called also create suspense as you don't know if something is going to pop out leading the audience to come to many conclusions. The Mise-En-Scene is effective as setting this clip under a bed - it can go either way. The blood on her instantly shows danger and even though its in black and white you still know what it is.

I have been saying and making ideas about what I could use in my trailer and quick cut-shots have been one. This shows how this could be a cut-shot in my trailer. How everything is fine one minute and then in the other shot there's loads of blood and then it goes back to normal again. This would be effective in my teaser trailer as the girl has something wrong in her head which could be shown as reality (Everything being normal) and then when something quickly flashes into something that could be when somethings playing with her in her head.

A wide shot is being used here which is very effective for something to be behind someone or just to pop up. Its a great way to instantly scare the viewers without any suspension so its just like a shock. This would be good to use on a quick shot connecting with the gif above as when it clicks to her head playing up there could be a shot like this as it would be petrifying for the audience to see.

I really like this gif as its really effective. When watching it you can just tell that somethings in the wardrobe that shouldn't be. Its another wide shot to show it in the background making us feel anxious about if she is going to find out or not.
