Our group: Our group consists of 2 people however we were a group of 4 but then we decided for the best we should break off as 2 individual groups. We all decided we should as we had way too many ideas for our trailer but it was getting to late stages of the task to complete the fundamentals such as the plot, synopsis, characters and their profiles. We believe working as 2 individual groups will benefit all of us as we are more comfortable with sharing our opinions whilst working together. This would mean our planning and research would be completed in detail to our full ability and that we will be able to create the best production we can.

Our production name and title :During our first meeting we discussed what genre we wanted to base our trailer on, the production name and further ideas. We decided to do a horror as we all have experience doing this genre, the production name is ‘Ancient moon productions’ as it links to our genre and it’s relatively mysterious and eerie. ‘Our little secret’ is our film name as one of our main characters was accidentally killed by the other and the main character who died has a stitched up mouth to keep the secret from being exposed.

Our Logo:Based on the creation of our production name we have used moons on our logo so they are relatable. We have chosen a variety of different blue tones as it is a neutral colour and goes with our theme.

Our logo:

Original plan: New plan:• Book• Adopted child turns

against his mom• Woods/graveyard• Tortured

Our plans have changed dramatically as we are no longer using any of these ideas.

• Girl/Boy• Flashbacks; teddy, shovel

and a camera• Park/Dark room• Realisation

We are basing our trailer around these bullet points to create our realistic jump scare trailer.

Joseph is a boy that taken over by a spirit after walking home from college. This spirit traps Joseph in a dream. A dream that’s his worst nightmare as it makes him re-live his past including his darkest moment. Waking up in a dark empty room leaves Joseph confused. Random but familiar objects start to appear triggering flashbacks from his past, some bringing back happy memories but it all starts to change as bloody posters, bloody objects appear in hands bringing back his darkest moments. The flash backs starts to fade as his normal surroundings become clear. Although he notices a familiar presence next to him, a girl in a white bloody gown with hair covering all her face but her smile. Then it all ends…

Plot:

Synopsis:A single child’s life takes a turn for the worst when targeted by the unknown. His life suddenly flashes before his eyes when he awakens faced with his greatest fear.

Our characters need more than one change of clothing so we decide to go for a smart school kind of look and a casual everyday kind of look.

We decided to go with the messy hair style as it looks like he’s been rushing and hasn't had time to do his hair.

The colour black represents evil and mystery so we decided to go for dark black clothing to suggest there is evil about and present.

Joseph is kind, clever, weird, smart, plain, nerdy, loner, independent and likes technology.

Joseph has a comb over, he wears glasses and wears shirts. He often spaces out when he sits alone, he has a smart phone and helps out teachers and the elderly.

He gets good grades in school, only speaks to teachers. He always plays games, he’s a computer freak. He draws strange things and talks to himself. Joseph Pibbs

We decided to go for the dark eerie look with the hospital gown and the long hair covering her face.

The hospital gown suggest she is mental or that she is a patient on a ward.

The hospital gown would be a typical white old parented style. White suggests she is pure and the old pattern signifies the age of the girl now, that she’s grown up.

Her hair is covering her face so that we don’t see her identity plus it shows she is mental and mysterious.

The colour of her hair is brown, the colour brown suggests funeral, death and dark. This could signify a death in the trailer (Mary) accidentally killed by Joseph.

Her mouth is going to have makeup on so it looks like her mouth has been sewed together. This could be because she has been tortured?

Audience research:• Target audience aged between 16-34• This trailer we are creating will be targeted at both genders as we

believe that most teenage girls and boys watch horror movies during their spare time as they love the thrill and jump scares. • It’s targeted towards the working class as they find it appealing.

Locations:• Drama room- Smith’s Wood Sports College • Babb's Mill Park
