Sub Genres of Horror
Our group have decided to go the them of a Paranormal atmosphere with our sub genre . This is due to the fact that Paranormal films have become very popular within the last couple of years with 'Paranormal Activity , 'Grave Encounters' and many more Paranormal themed horror films have raised their stakes in the world of horror. Were also going to make it up to date and give our film a modern 2013/2014 feel to it. By incorporating technology such as youtube and social media within our film.
As you can see from Google Trends paranormal has been extremely popular between 2009 - 2012. The popularity is declining from 2013. This gives us a chance to make a brand new successful supernatural horror film. We as a group have come up with the idea that the ‘Paranormal’ Genre would be the best option forward in getting a successful Horror film Trailer. We realise this because the trailers that we have been viewing from past A2 projects, the ‘Paranormal’ trailers have stood out for us. They stood out to us because of the effects, costumes, lighting and visual content. These are the reasons why we thought ‘Paranormal’ was the right way forward.
