Half - term 'individual ideas' homework

The film genre that I have chosen is going to be Thriller. This is because it is a popular type of film and can be really interesting to watch as a viewer as the way it is shot, as well as the sound effects can keep them engaged with what is going on.


Treatment: A group of teenagers (5 characters) who go camping in the woods, but are not prepared for what they will be put through whilst they are on this trip. As the genre is Thriller, we as the viewer understand that something deadly is around the corner, and not all of these five main characters will survive.

Location: The film could be set in the woods, a hospital, a science lab or someones house.

Props: Knives, hammers, baseball bat

Costumes: Fake blood, ripped clothes, special effects makeup to ensure the people who play the victims in the film look as realistic as possible.

Characters: The villain(s), the hero(s), as well as the main characters who are part of the story too.

Titles: The characters could be a group of teenagers who go camping one weekend, and as they arrive to the woods, tense and sharp music begins to play to increase the suspense of what is about to happen. The titles will then appear in a bright red onto a black background. This gives the viewer a brief but clear idea about what the genre of the film is and what events may take place throughout the rest of the film.

Soundscape: Mysterious and very sinister music to grab the viewers attention and keep them engaged as the sound effects would flow nicely to indicate that something bad and deadly is about to happen. The sinister music is a key factor for a title sequence especially as it highlights the genre and says a lot about the film itself.
