Assessment 3
Our opening sequence will be mainly aimed at teenagers from an audience of above the age of 15 and although we wish to aim to a 14 + audience our aim would not be suitable for those at the age of below 15 as according to the BBFC’s regulations but the sequence will be able to obtain a 15 rating as of the following reasons.
Our footage will have no discriminating language or behaviour what so ever and is suitable in this area for a 15 + age group.
Drugs will not be in our footage and no reference will be present throughout our filming and planning stages.
Horror will be a main part to our film with it being in that particular genre. As the horror will not be sadistic or sexualised the film will be suitable for an under 18 audience. Our focus on the horror side will be to have the story as a mystery and slowly reveal details as it goes on.
Imitable behaviour will not be something that could be possible as the full sequence will be completely fictional and nothing can be repeated within real life.
Language may be present within the sequence but the language will be justified by context and no strong terms or repeated language will be used as it would be unacceptable for an under 18 audience.
Sexual activity and nudity will not be present within our footage as it had no relevance to what we are shooting and planning and will therefore be suitable for an under 18 audience.
The theme of the film will be an infection style horror making the story have a slight truth for some audience members giving a more sense of horror and a better chance for audiences to immerse within the actions of the film.
Some brief violent shots will be shown but no strong gore or violent attacks will be shown and those shots that are shown will not be fully detailed in any shape or form.
Overall our film will be suitable for an under 18 audience and will not be too gruesome for 15 + teenagers. Our main focus of age group will be those ages 15 – 24 aiming at a younger age group as of the theme and plot of the story will be more excitable and enjoyed by a younger age group than older.
Genre
As the genre of Horror has developed throughout the years so have the ideas within the genre itself allowing many different sub-genres from horror. Many years ago when the genre of horror was just starting to be used horror was used in different styles to what is can be used as now. Many years ago the first few horror films would be based on urban myths and legends such as vampirism and werewolves, this would ensure a panic in the audience with seeing an idea that could be possible being played initialising panic within the audience hence creating a horror movie. However as the years have progressed the genre has moved along from the basic horror and creatures to real humans and to more physiological based horror movies such as the Hannibal series, which was a normal human that was very intelligent but very scary for the audience. Even now as the genre keeps developing many different areas from horror have appearing such as slasher-horror, zombie-horror, thriller-horror and many more. This is to ensure there is a horror for all audience members to be scared by ensuring a maximum audience appeal for everyone.
When the horror genre started we start to see the development of the ideas of monsters and the reason this horrified people is the reason of what if and this is main idea of the horror genre to actually make people scared outside the theatre depending upon the time period. This has become more and more developed as the genre has progressed. However within the 1950’s we start to see a popular development of aliens and alien life becoming a part of the horror genre this is due to the time period and the theories people started having about life on other planets. During the 60’s we start to see within the world an era of change and rebellion and this is also reflected in the horror genre with the addition of serial killers and even the start of the zombie genre as of the changed within the world some film makers would say it could change the world as shown in their films. During the 70’s it was the youth that was targeted within the horror genre to truly frighten people with the thought that their children could change and become possessed if they rebelled such as “The Omen” and “The Exorcist”. During the 80’s and 90’s we start to see the development of more physiological horrors and more serial killers with serial killers not becoming a part of life, as within the world many serial killers existed. Within the 21st century we start to see many old genre’s coming back but also with the idea of isolation within people as of mishaps within the world such as a biological weapon that could create mutants or zombie’s as the fear of this time period was the world destroying itself.

for my week 2 work i analyzed a classic called nightmare of elm street . the beginning starts off in a shed with the killers (freddy Kruger)
creating his iconic fingers out of metal , he sharpens them on more metal ,these blades are one per finger, this is shot in a darki place were only the hand is seen
of the killers face is left mysterious.the music is incidental buidling the tension up to the murder.Freddy Kruger tricks his victim by scratching wood and metal to build up paranoia
the opening scene is set in a old warehouse with lots of machines
