Mr Creek Trailer Shot List

Horror Villain Mood Board

This mood board consists of horror film villains that inspired the villain in my own horror trailer. The use of the mask was liked as it creates a sense of mystery and can make the character more visually scary and horrific. Most of the characters here have blades weapons which they use to kill the victims in the films and while a weapon would be needed for the villain, it was decided that we would not see it in the trailer to further create the sense of mystery for the audience as they question what the villain will use to try and kill the androgynous hero of the film. The costumes of the characters vary hugely and seem to be themed around the personality of the villain and how they kill their victims. This therefore meant that out costume idea was very flexible and could then be easy to design and make for our character. In the end it was decided that the costume would be everyday clothing that is stereo-typical male.

Mr Creek Script

This is the completed script for the Mr Creek trailer. The only dialogue that is spoken in the trailer is a voice over phone call which is made from Sam to his girlfriend who is not able to make it to the holiday home till Friday which leaves Sam at the holiday home alone for 4 days.

Production Schedule

Storyboards for the trailer

These are the storyboards for our trailers, and informs us on the duration of shot, camera angle, camera movement, mise en scene, lighting, dialogue and the music within the scene. In addition to this, the storyboards will be very useful in visualizing what our scenes look like.

Budgeting our Film Trailer.

This is the budgeting form that has been completed,so that we can work out the average cost of the production of our film trailer. This form shows the details about the journeys that will be made by the cast and crew, so that we can film and the average cost of this has been calculated, but is not exact due to the bus ticket prices varying per member of the group and the prices not being published online. In addition to this, the costs of the props and costumes have been added, and these prices are approximate due to the items already being purchased and in possession of our group.

Recce Scouting Forms

These are the recce scouting forms that were completed so that we can assess and scout out the area that we might be filming at, and these forms provide us with contact details, availability and the address of the location.

3 Horror Trailers for Inspiration

These are the three trailers that relate closely to our Mr Creek trailer. The first trailer that I chose was the 2008 film, The Strangers. The way in which this film relates to our trailer is that in both films families are on vacation/holiday, when a disruption occurs. The second trailer is the 1978 film, Halloween. IN this film Michael Myers seeks revenge on his sister, who he kills and later targets another female who is similar to his sister. This film relates to Mr Creek as there is a sense of revenge in both trailers/films, as Mr Creek wants revenge on a successful author, as he was a failed one. Finally, the last film trailer is the 2014 film, The Babadook. This film uses the same disruption method as our trailer, as there are notes and children books found throughout the house in both trailers, which leads to the unveiling of the villain/monster.

Risk Assessment

This is the risk assessment that had to be filled out by our group, so that we could see what risks there would be whilst filming, and how we could make the filming locations safer to cast and crew. This risk assessment will have to be signed by the person who assesses the area and takes the necessary precautions so that the area can be made safe. On the form, it has been explained how the area will be made safe, and what extra precautions will be taken. There is also space on the form for the teacher to sign the form and to show that we have taken the necessary steps to make filming safer for everyone involved.
