Today in media (on zoom) we were put into ‘Breakout rooms’ in our smaller media groups. We discussed which ideas we liked the best and the two we decided on were the- Thriller chase at night on the bike - The Ballet Dancer with mental health issues.
We started to drift towards the Ballet dancer idea because due to COVID limiting our possibilities for locations and work space, we thought shooting this would be the easiest.
We decided that instead of having the idea that it would be a horror it would be a story telling psycho film. We would do this by having no jump scares or obvious evil presence/ character, but we would make the music distort and include close up camera shots of hands and eyes to make the audience feel uncomfortable. There would also be no speech throughout the whole clip, just music. The audience would get most of the information from the detailed dressing room where there would be photos of the girls dead mother and a get well soon card from 2006 to hint that the mother died.
As a group we also discussed set and location. The video would be very practical to shoot as it would all take place within the media stage room where we would build our set of the stage dressing room. This would give us no time limit during the day as the lighting would be supplied by lights rather than natural lighting.
We therefore desired the ballet sequence would be easier to film, but we also like the idea of the thriller/ killer as it is an easier story to depict.
