Chosen Horror Movie Name

As I had many different names ideas for the trailer on a poll on my blog, the most common one was ''unhinged''' me and my group all decided that we like that one and would liked to use it. However, when researching if that name had already been used it showed that there was a film already with that name. As we found this out we decided to think of together names suitable one of my group members came up with the name '' The Summoning'' we liked this is it reflect our storyline and also had religious context to it.


I like this poster as you cannot fully see the girl, which looks scary. However the wet hair automatically gives a on edge feeling towards the film.


I like this picture as we have chosen to put unusual contacts in our actress’s eyes, this gave a good look. This poster looks effective as the font is bold and noticeable. I like the way the text is simple but emphasises thee main key words.


I like the way the text is simple but emphasises the main key word 'exorcism' effectively.

Research: Font/Text & film posters

As we will be designing a film poster/magazine front cover I have chosen to include pictures of relevant horror covers which we could get ideas from when coming to designing our film poster/magazine front cover. Also as we have chosen to include text in our trailer these images will help give me and my group to an insight on which texts/fonts work well together.

Possible Storylines....

This is a little delayed entry to my blog, however I find that it will be important to include in my blog as it states all the ideas.

When I and my group could not think of a suitable story line for our trailer, I set my self a task to come up with 5 horror movie storylines which could be possibly used for our trailer.
They are the following:
1. Ouija Board
A group of friends decide to go to a member's empty house. They all decide to use the Ouija board. However, one of the members feel sceptical about this. After a lot of persuasion, she decides to give an join the other friends. The Ouija board begins to respond and the girl gets shocked. It threatens the group by messaging - 'I will kill you.' The group of friends decide to ignore this and soon after realise that everything has changed. Unusual things happen as one by one, each member faces a life threatening event.

2. Serial killer on the loose
A beastly serial killer is on the loose, particularly targeting girls with blonde hair and blue eyes. A girl is home alone, venerable to the serial killer. She escapes the wrath of the killer but fails to prove that all of this had occurred to her parents as the house once trashed, was left untouched when they returned to check it.

3. Haunted House
A new couple buy house. Feeling uneasy, the wife tells her husband that something feels wrong about it. The husband reassures her. As he leaves for work, the wife witnesses some dark and mysterious life form in her house.

4. Girl killed by mother
A family lives in a house in which a girl was killed by her own mother. The spirit of the mother returns to avenge her death. With this aim, the girl haunts the family to help her. A series of distress and bloodshed occurs as the girl's spirit tries to achieve her goal.

5. A woman kills her son

A woman who is seriously involved with spirits and souls ends up killing her son. The spirits and souls continue to play with her mind to ruin her life as a human.

10th Decemer.2009: Chosen Trailer Music Track

As I mentioned previously in my blog that me and my group had started to look at suitable music for our trailer, we had come up with music such as We have looked at the following clips as potentials:

- Evanescence- Lithium
- Children’s Choice- Anthem for Satan
- Eximius84- Suman the demons ****
- Dark theme- Rohith

After looking at what the music would sound like with our trailer we came to an conclusion that the music tract Eximius84- Suman the demans **** suited our trailer best, and we would start to edit this track and make it fit where we want it to in our trailer.

The track Eximius84- Suman the demans
*orchestra music
*piano and church bells.

We like the contexts this track contains. As our trailer had religious context to it we feel that the chosen music would connote the religious context of the trailer.
