Censorship is the name for the process or idea of keeping things like obscene word or graphic images from an audience. Regulation is the action or process of regulation or being regulated. In post-war years it was fears of social unrest that was the reason for many films being censored or banned. As the nation relaxed in the 1960s nudity became the prime...
Here are the legal responsibilities we must consider when filming our trailer: We must make sure that none of the general public are in the background of our film without our consent. This is because they are protected by privacy. We must also make sure that we do not refer to a member of the general public in a way that would lower...
U means Universal. This means that anyone of any age is allowed to watch a film that has this certificate. Us only included infrequent uses of mildly bad language and there is no large focus on sexual behaviour. Violence in films that are rated U is also generally quite mild. Us also have no references to drugs. However, a U rated film isn't...
We made a collage of posters of horror and thriller films. We did this because we haven't quite decided which genre our film will fit into to (it is mainly a thriller but has elements of horror). ...
The above video is the trailer for the upcoming 2015 release 'Regression'. The film's title appears at the end of the trailer which means that intrigue will build up throughout the trailer as the audience will be wondering what the films name is if they are interested in seeing it.

To get knowledge about how horror films are marketed, I made a case study on how The Purge was marketed. I chose this film as it won awards for its marketing campaign and how effective it was. The Purge also similarities to our idea as it includes masked killers (iconography). To get knowledge about how horror films are marketed, I made a case...

Red Riding Hood
Research: Target Audience React to The Hallow, Scream - The TV Series & Red Riding Hood (Male)
We decided to do another 'reaction' video but this time with two males. We did this because our target audience are all teenagers of both genders - we thought we would show some similar trailers to two males to see if they liked them. If they didn't, we could then adapt our idea to be more female targeted. The audience members gave their...

This is our second questionnaire that we carried out. This was much more in depth and was mainly about our new idea. We found that all 15 people who were asked had at least watched one of the TV shows that have similarities to our idea - this suggests that our idea would be of interest to our audience. The audience said that...
We made a spider diagram of the types of things that scare people so we could get an idea of what would be the 'scare factor' in our film. Here is our idea put into Todorov's Narrative Theory: Stage 1: Usual happy life, sets up relationships between characters (mainly between boyfriend and girlfriend) Stage 2: The girlfriend is suddenly killed ----A Year Later----...
Todorov's Narrative theory: Stage 1 - The state of equilibrium is defined Stage 2 - Disruption to equilibrium by action or crisis Stage 3 - Characters recognise problems and set goals to fix them Stage 4 - Characters try to fix problems but there are obstacles Stage 5 - Equilibrium is re-instated, problem solved, conclusion For film trailers, stage 5 would not be...

We got 2 students who fit into our target audience (teenagers) to comment on and react to trailers that our film is similar to. Scream - The TV Series is one of the biggest inspirations for our idea so we wanted to see how our target audience would react to the marketing style of that series. Even though, we will be producing a...

Here are the results from the short initial ideas questionnaire that we carried out on Survey Monkey. We did this to narrow down our ideas and to try and find an idea that a particular audience would like. As you can see below 'The Kidnap Idea' was the most popular so we have acted on this feedback and gone with a thriller/horror film...
