Introduction

Horror film title: Silhouette

Tagline: Won't See it Until It Is Discovered

Logline: A horror story about a teenage boy being hunted by unknown shadow creatures as he enters an abandoned field.

 

Media language

Website plan

• I will create a website with a gloomy and black with a summary of the story and images. There will be an audio clip with the director and social at the bottom of the page

 

Photography plan

• My photography will be a dark alley way with a mysterious shadow.
• A teenage boy being haunted and chased by the creatures
• The setting of a wide field with a large tree and the moon

Branding/typography 

• I will use a dark and eerie font in a dark background with red highlights to signify danger and mystery

Media representations

The film will represent young person who is male and black due to the main character

I plan to reinforce/subvert stereotypes by having a male protagonist which reinforces the stereotype of male taking riskier situations and being brave. Also subvert the stereotype of a night time setting in horror with a mysterious creature who are sinister.

Target audience

I will target fans of independent cinema young adults from the ages 16-30, it will be promoted on social media platforms for fans of niche independent films.

Silhouette with give personal identity as the character will be related to others who are curious and want to explore. Also, as a teenager he would related to people in his age range. The story allows escapism as it is to entertain the viewer.
