Analysis of student work

I have completed this analysis of another students work as part of the research for our own production

I enjoyed watching this trailer and I am keen to use some of the elements for our production. In particular I would like to make use of darkness in a similar way to how I discussed on slide 5 of the analysis because this I feel this is very effective and it also an important convention of Film Noir. However, I would avoid the psychological problem/possession theme because this is not very conventional of film noir and although we are planning on using some horror elements, our main genre is still film noir.

Inquiring about a voice actor

It is conventional for a film noir film to have American actors and voice actors, because we are British students and we are filming in England we would have probably found it difficult to do this. Luckily we have a Canadian teacher at our college who might be willing to be a part of our production. It is very important for us to follow as many conventions as possible in order to make our production easily recognisable to the specific genre (Film Noir/Horror) and so we have emailed him to ask if he would be willing to help us.

 

 

Horror Conventions

I took a brief look at some conventions of horror because our production (despite primarily being film noir) is likely to contain some elements of horror.
