Magazine and Poster
These are potential final film posters. The images were captured by Becky and edited by Natalie. Individual images were captured because a still from the trailer footage would not be of high quality. Images from a still may have been blurred or pixelated. A jpeg image provides a clear, defined final outcome that offers a clarity that will engage onlookers interest. The images were edited to create a tone that was specific to a horror genre.

TANGERINE TRAILER: FIRST EDIT 05/11/2010
FIRST EDITING OF THE NEW PRODUCTION TRAILER. TAKE A CHEEKY PEEK...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsYRS7mnJVI
THE SETTING
The setting will part be in and wood and house. This follows the typical horror conventions of psychological horror, the aspect that ‘evil’ has entered the home gives a sense of realism which makes the audience that more scared. The audience can put themselves in the situation of the characters surrounding the plot giving it a real aspect that evil could enter their homes. The wood is a symbol for isolation and being alone. A vast space that is dense and could house so many dangers is almost an anticipation that something will go wrong. Previously, it was stated that the footage would be shot in a different location however this was not as accessible for all the cast and crew members.
HAIR/COSTUME/MAKEUP
The hair, costume and makeup completes the characters identity. Hair will follow the psycho child horror convention of unkempt and neglected, displaying that the character herself is neglected/unwanted. By covering the face with her hair, it gives a mystery of danger; a persons thoughts and actions are often displayed through the face by covering it no-one knows what the character is going to do. The costume consists of a simple white dress. This is using the colour conventions of innocences combining the characters psychotic behavior with this colour convention it gives an ironic perspective that not everything you think is innocent, is innocent. When in the woods scene, the child will be wearing a red coat. On research, I discovered that apparently the colour red attracts evil spirits, in Victorian times nobody put red curtains in the window in case evil spirits would take them in their sleep. The colour red also is a symbol for blood and danger which also reflects on the characters future state. Makeup was simple, natural and pale. This gives a ghostly almost 'dead body' image which gives that element of horror.
LIGHTING
Lighting create mood and atmosphere within a film. By using natural airy light a softer more subtle tone is added to the frames. In contrast, using dark, dingy light a moody more mysterious tone is created. When shooting outdoors, natural light is the only available light and when shooting on a clear day will enable to capture detailed and strong frames. When shooting indoors, more direct and darker lighting will be used to create a dark mood and atmosphere. By using dark lighting it connects to connotations of evil and isolation which gives that element of vulnerability to the characters.
THE CAMERA
With any film, camera angles and general shooting technique are vital. The range of camera movements can entice a film audience. Using basic angles such as close up's and extreme close up's, emotion and fear can be portrayed clearly from camera to screen. Long shoots and bird's eye shoots to show the surrounding location of the character gives an omniscient feel to the shoot. This means the audience can see what the character cannot such as if someone is lurking or creeping. Using high angle shots will be taken into consideration to show a character being looked down upon thus weaker and more vulnerable. Low angle shots can be used to make characters powerful and intimidating; often if a character is of a higher status to another. Examples are shown below as a detailed insight into camera angles that will be used when shooting:
Long shot
This shot shows the full body of the character and the surrounding location, making any action behind the character visible.
High Angle shot
This shot makes the character look vulnerable, small and weak. By looking down it gives the character a sense of lower status.
Low Angle shot
This is essentially the opposite to a high angle shot; makes the character look intimidating, powerful and strong. By looking up it gives the character a sense of higher status.
Close Up
This shows the full face and is used to show the full emotion of the character.
Extreme Close Up
This is exactly the same as a close up but shows greater detail of the face and emotion. Strictly focuses on the emotion being shared in that frame.

The following recordings are possible songs to have in the background of the trailer...
I used the same tone on the keyboard for each song. I tried to give a variety of different sounds but with a main focus on children's songs such as if you're happy and you know it, london bridge is falling down, twinkle little star etc to carry on with the theme of a tormented child.
