Cast
Alex Snowden
Alex is my media partner and we do the filming and screenplay as a pair. We worked together along with George Needham in our AS coursework last year and had it screen at bradford film festival.
Tom Hunter
Tom hunter is one of the main actors we used in our teaser trailer, one of the main reasons we used him is because he is 18 which is aroundthe age of the target audience we are attempting to reach with our media.
Ben Garvey
This is me, Director and screenplay writer along with alex
Theo Wightman
Theo is in our media class and is himself doing a teaser trailer. He is also a drama student so we thought he would be good on the acting from. Like Tom he too is 18 so again reaches our target audience.
Props
We wanted to use a typical movie style kitchen knife as it follows the conventions of a real media product. The knife helps people to easily identify what genre (horror) the trailer is. The main influence in the using of this knife was Halloween which made it iconic to the horror industry.
This is the black hoodie we choose for the murderer to use in our film. There are two main reasons why we used this hoodie. The first reason is because it was black and this is very traditionally used in horror films. The second point is because it zips fully so hides the identity of the killer creating a narrative enigma. We wanted a hoodie that covers the face because in our horror research we watched a film called Dead mans shoes by Shane Meadows in which a mask is used by the killer near the start of the film and it made him look wierd and menacing.
