What features will my film include & how will I do this?
• Like in any horror film your main point of the film HAS to be to make your audience feel the fear of the people in the film. During my research on horror films I looked up the definition of horror and I found this: The definition of “horror” is: 1) ‘an intense feeling or fear, shock or disgust. 2) A thing causing such a feeling. 3) Intense dismay. Informal or a bad or mischievous person, especially a child.’ These 3 points are crucial in a horror film in order for it to be successful. To bring these points into my film firstly, I will create shocking and unexpected situations to make the audience fear for the people in the film and leave them in shock.

These techniques create and leave the audience sitting on the edge of their seats. Special effects make situations look realistic in order to make the audience feel like what’s happening is real and they can see the realism behind the story. This could be things like fake cuts or fake deaths with situations including guns and
