When it came to coming up with ideas for our brief, we firstly wrote down all of the types of horror films. Then after thinking of ideas for each, we narrowed down which one would be most appropriate for this task. For example, when we thought about doing a opening that revolved around the sub genre of psychological, we discovered that with our budget and equipment, this wouldn't be as effective as box office films.
Ultimately, we chose to use paranormal as the sub genre for our horror opening scene. The idea on the left of the sheet above is our initial idea that stemmed from this sub genre. However, after deliberating we realised that we would have location limitations as we did not have remote access to a church. Also, it would not be appropriate to perform an Ouija Board scene in a church, despite the haunted connotations it may have.
The idea on the right however, is our final idea that we came up with after brainstorming ideas for the paranormal sub genre. We felt that this sub genre would be effective for our brief as we was all confident that we could produce the best brief out of the other sub genres.
Once gaining an understand of our story line, we went into more detail on the image above.
After feedback from our previous idea that are opening was revealing too much of the plot, we re-evaluated our ideas and altered them to make it more of an opening. Also, with the idea above, the prodcution will be more successful as we are able to get suitable actors and locations better.
