Evauluation of Screen Shots.

Shot 1
This shot is an establishing shot. This is the beginning shot of the teaser trailer. Establishing shots set the scene and location of the place. Ours shows a house which is a typical setting. This is because people can relate to as it is a normal looking suburban house.

Shot 2
This is a shot of one of our title sequence. The thing that's most significant in this is that it has a red question mark. We used this to create a mood of the colour. In this case it relates to death and blood. We use it against a black screen to give maximum impact and the font papyrus we used to create a horror aspect.


Shot 3
This shot is a close up of the knife, this is used to make the audience scared. The lighting is quite dark and it makes the audience just recognise that its a knife. Having the lighting dark lets us not give much away but also by it being scarier at night which is a key horror generic convention.



Shot 4
This is a shot in the woods of a guy walking up through there garden. We used a special effect called 'Ghost'. This makes the person transparent when moving but also blurry. This worked well with what we were trying to portray (horror generic conventions). Again having it in the dark makes it more scary.


Shot 5
This shot is a image of a weather clock. In the reflection you can see the shine of a knife. This is a typical shot that you can find in most horror films. The reflection shot is used to give a brief view of whats going to happen.





Shot 6
This shot is of a sink with blood in it. We has shown this for effect of the horror conventions (blood, death, killer etc.) Having the blood all over the sink makes it feel like that someone is dead. Having the hands there also you are unsure if they killed the person or they are hurt.




Shot 7
This shot is a close up of a caution tape used by police when there is a death. This is used to make viewers know that there will be death which can intise viewers to come and watch it. Yellow tape also represents explosives which could relate to the film.

Shot 8
This shot is a mid shot of a swing. There is only a spot light shown on the swing and in the trailer the swing is swaying making you feel like something is there. The spotlight is used to make you focus on that key point.

Shot 9

This shot is off a hand clipping on the chain on the door. This is a close up to show the significance of this shot. This is shown as important because it may come up later in the film. It also may be because someone could get in the house another way.

Shot 10

Shot 10 is a typical horror shot of someone with there back to a killer. The hooded character is shown in the foreground because you don't want them to make out who this person is. The person on the laptop has the light reflected on there face to show there reaction. Having this makes the audience realise that he doesn't know that there is anything behind him.
