Research and Planning- Treatment
This is my first treatment for my teaser trailer:
*Facts and figures (on a computer screen in facebook font) to begin with of how people have been harassed on social networking sites. This will be interspersed with images of people having a good time, preferably the actors in the film.
*Theme made music in the background, something popular and quite catching. But at the same time making it quite spooky.
*Offline - which may be the title of the film. Computer screen goes blank to that, then cuts to a girl on a computer on researching murders related to facebook the computer then switches on to facebook with out the girl logging in.. then pops up one notification with her face scribbled out or battered, next screen goes blank looks behind her silhouette of male behind.

Research and Planning- Target Audience
The target audience I think for my horror film trailer would be from 15 years onwards, this is because I think my trailer would have a 15 age certificate. I researched film reviews off sites like YouTube I found that horrors are quite mixed genders but vary on what type of horror it is some females may not like. I think my horror would attract both males and females. I also made a questionaire which I gave to a mixed age group of different ages, to help me find the target audience for my film.
The demographics of my audience will be mainly students I think, from the last year of high school up to university, many will go in couples or groups to horror films. The physcographics of my audience would interest people who socializing and share an experience some films have so much advertisement behind them they feel they have to watch the films to not feel left out.
The socio-economic group for my trailer would be D- E which is unskilled workers and students mainly as most top business men may not be interested in horror films.

Research and Planning: Conventions
For are coursework we are doing a teaser trailer, this challenges our abilities as last year we did a music magazine this shows are new coursework will challenge us compared to are last piece of coursework.
Teaser Trailer- should be from 45 seconds to 90 seconds, trailers are to show important aspects of the film to grab your attention and make you want to see the film. Its only short as you dont want to give to much of the film away to its audience.
The trailer wouldn't be possible for me to make as it wouldn't be feasible for me. The animation would be to difficult and expensive to make. Plus i want my horror to be more realistic.
This trailer is something i am looking at to do, i have came up with the idea of using facebook but changing it in to a horror, i like the layout how they have filmed people using facebook but my trailer to be scary not a thriller. So would be different i just like the idea of the camera angles looking on to the facebook and the props.
I like the sound and editing in this trailer and i am going to try make it similar in mine, the effects have made it jumpy and the sound makes it more realistic this horror is one i want mine to relate to with the effects and sound.
Conventions-
Editing- the editing is fast pace, and makes the audience jump while watching it. I will use jump cuts to show the fast continuity and also fades from text to black.
Sound- The sound has to relate to the trailer, i will use repetition to give the loud scary effect. I will use my own sounds from peoples voices. But i will also add my own theme of sound to my trailer.
Cinematography- Over the shoulder shots and a main shot in horrors, close ups of people expressions is used a lot. Point of view , hand held camera effect made be used aswell.
Mise en scene- Day to day student type costumes., scene- realistic home. Computer and social networking.
