Cinematic Ideas Project 1

Cinematic Ideas

We will be using a dark filter over the majority of the short film, this will be used as the low key lighting that comes with it is a convention of the genre we will be using (Horror).

We will use point of view shots throughout our short film to match the conventions that are commonly found in low budget horror films as well as helping to immerse the viewer in the world that we have made.

Panning shots will be used in our short film in order to establish the surroundings that our protagonist finds their self in, while also drawing attention to key points or just helping set the scene.

We will take advantage of wipe cuts in order to save time in places of our film that we feel aren't needed and also help transition between two scenes.

Zooms will be used in order to emphasise key parts and bring props or facial expressions to the audiences attention.

An emphasis on an eerie non diegetic sound will be prominent throughout our short film, we will be doing this as it not only matches conventions of our genre but it also will help create an eerie vibe and help build tension.
