1. 1. However, we feel as though we developed the trope of some unknowing teen dying at the beginning of a horror film, as it is Sebastian- a boy, who dies instead of conventionally a girl screaming and being killed after wondering through some woods or being attacked by a killer. This subversion of gender stereotyping of a girl dying at the beginning of film makes our media product different from convention, whilst still partially adhereing to the convention. Despite this, the use of titles at the beginning of the film is very convntional to many horror films, showing the idents and having diegetic sound be heard off screen under titles. We did this to create the feeling of a horror opening.
