Our brief was to complete a two minute video clip. We were given the genre of a 'Thriller' and had to choose a sub-genre of our choice. I worked with two peers to create a psychological thriller where a young girl aged 8 had been possessed by a spirit that was trapped inside a bear she received on her 5th birthday. We chose the title 'Possessed.' This was because it was a short and simple title which explained the whole film and gave the audience an idea of what the film would be based on. Before starting the production piece, we wrote up a treatment which helped us plan our movie step by step. In our treatment, we included our narrative, our characters (antagonist and protagonist), our instituation, and our representation. Although this was our final text, at the start of the course, we chose to do a movie based on vampires however for many reasons we changed the narrative which in the end turned out to work better. We chose to do a psychological thriller because we felt it would be more unique as well as appeal to a more mainstream audience of both male and female.
This was part of our original movie which was based on vampires however in terms of our genre; we didn’t feel that it looked very thriller like.
Once again, This was part of our original movie however we didn’t feel that it looked very thriller like either. This is because the lighting did not go well with the genre of a thriller and the blood did not seem as realistic as we expected it to be.
