New Ideas

The decision to change from our original plan and make and new one allowed us to develop a more interesting and creative idea. To start we laid out a basic premise for our production which highlights at the main features of the trailer, this being the idea of a young woman's childhood nightmares becoming a reality.

In order to expand on this idea and create more detailed and specific plans we broke down the trailer into different aspects and focused on each more closely, for example characters, location etc. We first began to think of some locations which would give strong connotations of mystery and danger in order to reinforce the idea that it is a horror. These locations include dark alleyways and fields. 

The next step in our planning was to create profiles for our characters, including their physical appearances, age, gender, likes/dislikes and more. We did this for each of the main characters, the protagonist and antagonist. The idea is that the protagonist will have horrible nightmares of a scary old lady (antagonist) who is seeking revenge and eventually begins to appear in reality.

Finally we began to create ideas of different scenes which could be included in the trailer. This involved us thinking about what events could happen where and how we could portray them occuring, without giving too much of the story away.
