PLANNING: ADVANCED PRODUCTION INITIAL DEVELOPMENT

We have decided that our genre for the trailer is going to be a thriller horror. However, I recognised that the horror elements is more about scaring the audience with the impact of visual and sound.

There are films that identified themselves as a thriller genre, I distinguished that there are noticeable difference between them. Like for 'Inception' and 'Joker', I found the trailer of 'Joker' is more interesting and it would engage me to watch it. I spot out that probably the film itself still do contains different kinds of genre, 'Inception' is a action, adventure and sci-fi film, where at the same time, it is also identify as a thriller genre.

We have all decided to set our trailer genre to be a thriller, at the same time should not be containing any violent element. We consider that adding violent elements to our trailer would not have a grater impact, therefore we have settled the final genre as fantasy thriller.

I found it useful to save everything that I found useful on Scoop.it, which is a platform that allows me to create boards of curated content based on topics I have chosen. Scoop.it also enables me to share my thoughts as insights in the comment box. Scoop.it is interactive and offers links that maybe relevant to my research.
