Horror Prezi

Our Horror Prezi

This is our Prezi of our Horror genre as we have chose to do a psychological horror drama for our coursework film opening. Enjoy.

Genre research - Horror

We have chosen the genre of horror for our film opening coursework. To help us decide on the genre we did some research on horror films. Here are a few we've looked at. Enjoy.

This next one was us looking at the idea that something that is naturally not scary (answering the phone)happens and therefore makes an everyday action scary. Making it real for the audience.

Typical Sounds and Music in the Horror Genre

Typical sounds that are within the horror genre include:
-- high pitched screams
-- echoes
-- breathing 
-- sudden strings/ boom effects
-- piano base tunes

Also almost all of the movies we used to help understand the sounds used had a very ionic theme tune to add to the film opening. We intend to use the research of these sounds to add to the intensity of our film opening.
