Research into the chosen genre

To help create the plot for the film, we all set out individually watching the first 3-4 minutes of some horror based-films to see how the were constructed and to help understand what truly makes a horror film. The main focuses that we looked at were the mis en scene and the camera angles used during the into.

During my research I looked into the movies Final Destination 3, Saw III and The Hostel

Re-evalutaion of Genre

Later on the group decided against having the genre of the film as a teen romance; we re-evaluated and decided on having the new genre of the film as a horror. The group came to this conclusion as we believed that it would be easier to produce, more interesting and unusual camera angles would be needed, and mis en scene would be more interesting to reproduce in order to create tension and suspense.
