Final major project – THE TRUNK

Project Proposal

YOUR PROJECT TITLE: ………The Trunk

Describe the key features of your film or game (context, plot, mise-en-scene; mechanics,
mission, challenge) OR how you will incorporate the trunk:

The key features of a horror film is the jump scares that will frighten the audience, also with jump
scares it normally happens when everything has gone all quiet and a relaxed scenario, in horrors
the main villain is normally a murderer/psychopath or an object that is cursed, the reason behind
this is that its scary and the main point of a horror is to scare your audience, another main feature
of a horror film is when the main character is scared you feel scared for the character as you can
tell what's going to happen but the character doesn’t.

Influences, Research, Sources and Ideas

Who are you inspired by and why is their work relevant to your own?

IT – By Steven King

When they remade IT the actor who played the clown acted really well and when the kids go around
looking to escape or kill the clown the CGI for the deaths of the kids and the clowns is really good and
really scares the audience.

The reason why my work will be relevant to their work is that when my main character finds something im
going to get my actor for the killer to think like a murderer and scare the main chacter with creepy signs of
its awareness plus when the audience sees the killer in action im going ot make sure it will scare
everything.

Method of Evaluation

How will you evaluate the effectiveness of the work produced?

When I go to evaluate my work, I'm going to see if my audience gets scared at any point of my film or if
they think my murderer is scary enough for them, also I will be evaluating whether they enjoyed the film or if
they didn’t like it, I will also ask them what I could improve on so I know what to do better next time I film.
