The things i expect to see in a horror film

The shot types:


  • Point of view shot allows the audience to feel as though they are in the characters shoes, which would make the horror film more scary.








  • Establishing shot makes the audience aware of where the film is set, before the actual story begins.





  • High angle shot which would illustrate the murder attacking the victim. It makes the film more scary as though the camera is looking down.








  • Over the shoulder shot creates tension between characters and makes them seem closer than they really are.








  • A low angled shot allows the audience to feel intimidated and unsteady. 







  • Extreme close ups allow the audience to view the characters in detail. When the camera is zoomed into the persons face it creates a terrifying effect.






Characters:

  • Unusual faces

  • Young children
  • Females with long dark hair
