Trailer Ideas

Casting Ideas

-         I will have two main characters in my trailer.
-         They will be teenage girls aged 17, medium build and average height, in order for them not to be to cliché but still visually the innocent victims.
-         In my film the villains are first the other member of the association; this should lure my audience and other characters into a false sense of security. Also they will be of the same height and build of the main two victims
-         The audience will find out who the villains are before the characters, the clothing codes of the member of the association will change to a dark saturation in order to change an atmosphere of danger around them.

Lighting Ideas

-         At the beginning of my trailer the light will be bright in order to connote the equilibrium of there everyday life’s;
-         The trailer will then turn from a light saturation to a dark saturation once the main characters accept there offer to go to the A association met. This will highlight the start disequilibrium on the characters lives.
-         Once they have reached the met the mood and atmosphere of the trailer will change and the lighting will connote danger.


Location Ideas

-         College
-         Home in an isolated area to symbolise loss of connection for the victims from the outside world
-         Woods- show the victims don’t know where they are going, cant find there way to safety


Sound Ideas

-         Scream to end the trailer to leave the audience in suspense
-         I will use different sounds non diegetic and diegetic to create the atmosphere in the trailer.
-         The music I will use will construct the narrative of my trailer; I will research into music I will use.
-         The tempo and pace of the sound/ music I will use will change as the trailer moves from the equilibrium to the disequilibrium.

Prop Ideas

-         Props will be used in my trailer as action codes to connote murder, such as an axe or knife.
-         I will also need to use fake blood to show my victims are hurt
-         I will also use costumes to connote the narrative, the beginning of my trailer the costume will be clothing of normal teenage girls but then the psycho killers of the A association will change to dark clothing for example clocks when they are ready to kill. The clothing codes of the victims will change from tidy to ripped and dirty most likely stained with blood.
