Main Task Storyboard (Draft)

Script Draft

This is the first draft of our script for our main task. THere was many mistakes so we re-draffed it but this is the initial one.

The Chatroom

Audience Research Questionnaire

This was the first question given to the public to see there age as this is a vital piece of planning in knowing our target audience.

This was a question given to over 170 people  to get a vaiety of data and make the dada more reliable. This was done to decide on what genre to choose for our media project. 

We needed more than a type of genre to choose for our media project and we found that horror/thriller was very popular for the people in the sample.

We decided to ask them if the horror/thriller they watch is predictable. This helped us in coming up with a pretty complex plot.

Finally, we asked them if they name of the thriller mattered as we need to know to challenge the convention of typical horrors having scary names or not

Main Task Inspiration

I drew inspiration from various media products in the aid of my main task. After setting up focus groups and and doing selected survays and finding out that a horror is a good sub- genre to base our movie on. So with that in mind, we reasearched many horror products and looked closely at the mise en scene and tried to draw inspiration from that. Such as the opening credits to seven.

I was watching a music video done by UK artists and I came across well shot low budget scary mise en scene in the videos that gave us a rough idea as into how to create a scary environment.


Bashy - Ransom

Skepta - Mike Lowery

Krept & Konan - Paranormal Activity Remix

I believe that all these dark music videos have a post production edit, like the one I tried in my preliminary task as well as lighting, that give it that dark scary thriller-ish look to it. The rest of the team thought that giving our media product this look is vital in creating that dark atmosphere.

Preliminary Task

Preliminary Task Inspiration

We had so much inspiration for our Preliminary Task. I found that I wanted  a dark gradient to my video and I got inspiration from "The Matrix"

Audio for our task was a problem as there was so much talking over our footage that a music overlay was needed to create a good clip. The rest of my team were didn't see my vision see my vision of a dark enigma clip we went separate ways in editing the footage. I found the soundtrack of "28 days Later" had a nice spooky feel to it and is exactly what i needed.

This was all the inspiration i needed for my task.

Preliminary Task Story Board
