Since the 1920's directors have been making and remkaing classic horror movies, from 'Nosferatu' to 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre'. In class we watched the two horror movie classics along with:

'Psycho' (1960),
'Carrie' (1976),
'Halloween' (1978),

'Scream' (1996),
'The Faculty' (1998)

 
We have also been watching trailers and teaser trailers and gaining an understanding of: how long our trailer should be and what editing techniques are most effective for the horror genre. Over the past few weeks I have begun to really appreciate the conventions of horror and have enjoyed watching them being subverted or challenged whilst still keeping the movie interesting. This, I think, is the hardest part of creating our teaser trailer, pre production, I have seen that having a story behind the images is important.

 
I would like my trailer to be an 18. Our target audience is therefore 18-25. Taken from the BBFC, this is what is allowed in an 18 rated piece of media.

-Nudity
- Sex scenes are allowed however they musn't be too graphic i.e. pornography
- Violence is allowed
- Crude language is permitted

- Use/abuse of drugs
