Pictures for inspiration
All pictures used on this moodboard are used for inspiration from films we have seen...
We like the way that masks are used to cover the identity of the villain so it keeps the audience hooked and makes them watch on to find the idenity out.
The two pictures of 'The Grudge' and 'Poltergeist' are used because we likethe way the camera angle allows you to see someone getting grabbed from behind because the person getting grabbed can't see them so we also get to see their facial expressions.
When filming, we like the idea of filming at a big house in the middle of nowhere to create suspense. And also because it is a typical generic convention of the horror genre.
The picture of the girl from 'The Exorcist' is on our mood board because we like the make-up and effects they have used on her face throughout the film to show that her posession is getting worse. Obviously we won't be able to get make-up and effects like that but we have it for inspiration.
We like the picture from 'The Strangers' because the man is looking for someone or something and that persin or thing is sneaking up behind him, we are going to use a smilar thing is our film opening.
A shadow or disfigured figure is used a lot in horror film to create tension becaus eyou don't know who or what it is. Like in 'Paranormal Activity' we are going to use this.
