Evaluation Q7 .. x

In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media?

We chose a location that represented a horror atmosphere to bring a sense of realism to the product. The location, Kingswood House, was my idea, as i've lived near the house for several years and always pictured a horror movie being based around it. As soon as we had decided what genre we was going to use, i knew straight away this would be the ideal place for the product.

In most horror movies, they always begin with an introduction to the location alongside a creepy, spine chilling soundtrack. They may do this to make the audience aware of where the movie takes place. Also, to keep the audience wondering about what may have happened there, what is going to happen, etc. We tried to replicate this idea and make it genuine, but to our personal style.
The silhouette effect created here is the perfect example of some of the effects the audience may see in a horror movie.
