Creation of Logo

Here are the two steps of creating our logo. The Bottom Image is the starting template I created using the line tool increasing the line pixels from 5 upto 20. The top image is my edited version using different layers colour and different tools to create different effects.

Inspiration for stabbing scene

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VP5jEAP3K4
This scene inspired our stabbing scene within our opening sequence as at first it represents normal behavior and the females vulnerability .
This relates to when the female in our film is texting and the open space around her shows her vulnerability. The stabbing scene is first
Represented by shadows which disguises her awareness of the killer being present. This is also present in our sequence. The knife is then
shown as the weapon and it uses elliptical editing from the stabbing scene to the female being laid dead which is similar in our sequence.

Using iMovie

This is the original footage we filmed and imported to iMovie.

We then cut it after reducing it to 5s sections and grouped it all together in sequence without any changes.

Media Evaluation-Horror Conventions on Prezi

Horror films usually play on the emotions of the audience to influence terror and fear upon the viewer. General themes include death,horrific injuries,mental illness and other criminal acts. Horror films usually have a sub genre within the genre. These normally include murder mysteries,torture or a serial killer. Horror films started around the  1890's in france with films such as "the house of the devil". Horror films were popularized in America in the 1930's by universal studios with films like Dracula and Frankenstein. Films that inspired our ideas were things such as Scream because of the masked killer idea, Halloween because of the idea of a serial killer and also Nightmare on Elm street because of the mystery Enigma.
