Evaluation Task 1 - In what way does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
1) This is the first shot used in our trailer, it shows
car driving down a road but doesn't show who is in the car, this will make the audience wonder who's in the car. Its good way of introducing the characters as it shows the audience the background of the characters, the car isn't exactly very new and flash so the audience will be aware that the characters are not from a rich background but from a normal middle class up bringing. The non diegetic music played over this shot is very up beat and will confuse the audience into thinking nothing is actually wrong.
2) Shot two is the first introduction to the characters who would of been in the car, were not given any names but it lets the audience know who their protagonists will be. The shot is taken in the day time which makes it seem less sinister. We used a mid shot so we were able to see the characters more clearly because its the first time the audience meet them.
5) In these two shots are our slogan 'THE MORE THEY KNOW... ... THE LESS THEY CARE'. We chose to separate it over 2 title shots to make it more intriguing for they audience. We decided to put our slogan in our trailer because its a great a way of giving the audience an idea of what the film could be based on with out giving too much away through clips. It will also create enigmas for the audience and make them wonder what it means.
6) This shot is shown just before we go into our fast passed montage which means the audience will remember it because its the last normal shot. Due to where the camera is placed it looks like the antagonist is watching her. It also when the audience will first realise something is wrong because of her body language and how she looks around.
7)This is the first shot of the antagonist where we can see the top half of their body. We used a low angle shot to make them more dominant and intimidating. The shot was filmed as it was getting dark and the tree branches in the background add a sense of being trapped.
8) We believe that this is one of our most effective shots in our trailer. We shot it from ground level so it looks like Kathryn is looking straight at one of her friends, but also gives the effect that she is reaching out to the audience.
9) These couple have shots have been edited so the antagonist moved forward really quickly because of this is looks like he walking towards the audience, the first shot is a long shot of their whole body and as they get closer you see clearer who the person is. Having it down a small alley make it creepier because they cone out of no where.
10)We reveal the name of the movie on the penultimate shot. To make it memorable we placed the title over a shot of our antagonist and made the clip jumpy. This makes the title stand out.#
11) Our last shot is of one our protagonists standing in a dark room with a light looking very panicky and vulnerable, we made this clip quite long to make it a shock when it ends and to build up tension. we thought this was the best shot to end our trailer because its memorable with the loud scream and effective lighting.

3) This shot lets the audience know what the directors has made before and could be a unique selling point for an audience who have already seen the other films and enjoyed them. The black and white colours used conform to the codes and conventions of horror film due to the dark background denoting mystery and the white font denoting the super natural.
4) This is the first shot of our antagonist, it only shows their feet and weapon, which could intrigue the audience into watching the rest of the trailer and film. The weapon will give the audience an idea about the type of antagonist, if a gun was shown you are more likely to think the villain is more professional whereas the axe is a lot more simple and therefore could be used by a teenager.5) In these two shots are our slogan 'THE MORE THEY KNOW... ...
