Opening scene ideas



My main contribution to the discussion was the representation and location.

Firstly, our title and location link very much, the name of our opening sequence would is going to be ‘our house’ and the location is going to be based in a variety p of places in a house. We chose a house as our setting and title as in a physiological horror they are commonly filmed in realistic, life like settings. And the title reflects this setting. To go into more depth of the location we will take an establishing shot of the front door and the main horror will be unfolded throughout the rooms on the house – basement, halls and bedrooms. These settings will all incorporate the horrors of the house. (Creaking floor boards, screaming and noises)

The representations we will be including will firstly be the victim of the horror (final girl) she will look normal and innocent. A day-to-day girl next door type of character who doesn’t expect horror to unfold in her house/home.

When we were deciding on props we researched what props types were used in existing physiological horrors, after doing this research we decided to use a mirror and the character will spot horror when looking at her reflection she will see a figure and things moving behind her. And other house hold items like doors, curtains, floor boards these will all add to the setting of a house and make it more realistic.
 

We used the same research technique of fonts and looked at existing ones , we also used the thought of house hold items and linked this in , as it is a old house we are going to use a font type of a type writer as it will link in with the house hold aspect of the opening scene.
