- setting and location. After research the horror film conventions , it appears that most horror films are usually set in a dark abandoned house or isolated house. However our horror film location is in a house and set in a bedroom where all the disaster happens. Looking at the first image you can see three girls having a conversation like a normal people the reason why we done that it because we want to keep the audience desperately wondering what will happen through out the film. The following image shows the character in the bathroom this may not be a popular location however we used because of the mirror reflection because mirror normally reflect our film in this case the audience will then starting to become more suspicion .
- camerawork and editing: In our horror film we used a handheld camera , however in the third frame we used a close up mainly to focus on the eye to make the audience feel uncomfortable and scared .
- costumes and props: It does not go against the conventions it conforms it instead. It is stereotypical that if a film is based around something demonic then the demonic things costume or probably has different color eyes such as: red, white or black and they are not soft colors but are harsh.
- Title: My film title sequence, ‘White Eyed Possession’, challenges the conventions of actual opening sequences. Our dialogue develops the use of technology within the horror genre. ‘Paranormal activity’ (Oren Peli 2009) and Scary movie (Keenen Ivory Wayans 2000). Both use simple props for the basis of their plots. ‘White Eyed Possession’ is a cross-over of these genres, and develops the use of technology by dialogue and sound throughout. The camera angles create tension which is able to draw the audience into the action.
- font and style. ‘White Eyed Possession’ does not conform but it challenges the conventions of a horror film as the title and font style throughout the introduction, it is more of a theme you would see in either a comedy or an action film such as Hangover one-three or Fast and furious one-seven, both use roughly the same style of font. ‘White Eyed Possession’ is a cross-over of both of these font types and however it helps develop the use of font and style within a horror film.
- Genre and how opening suggests it: we combined our horror film opening using both sound non diegetic and diegetic sound. the diegetic sound was used at the start as the girls were having a conversation as most horror film will do, through out the opening non diegetic sounds played to help frighting and create more intense feel on the audience
