Location Ideas

FOREST 
Choosing the forest as one of our locations to film our trailer will help us to create a tense atmosphere. This location will be used to film Gianne walking through the forest along with Jason and Val. We will use a combination of shots from the handheld camera and the SLR. Gianne would show signs of possession and Jason and Val will react with panic and try to flee. This location will work well in relation to our sub genre of possession which is regarded to be part of the supernatural world. A lot of films and t.v series tend to use forests as locations when presenting werewolves, vampires etc. which are viewed as supernatural creatures.

CHURCH / GRAVEYARD
This location will help to support our sub genre. "Possession" in horror films and trailers tend to revolve around the Christian religion. Shooting in front/near a church will allow our audience to immediately relate the two together and make it clear to them that Gianne is in fact possessed, and by a demon from the Christian religion.
The graves will help to create fear amongst our audience. The graveyard will represent death and the dead which tends to make people feel uncomfortable and scared. This will help to create an eerie atmosphere.

LIBRARY
The library will most likely be our opening scene where we introduce the characters, Gianne, Val and Jason. Along with the characters, our main prop will also be introduced - The "demonic" book. Shots in the library will tell our audience that our characters are students and that the beginning is set in a school.







DARK ROOM/ CELLER
We will choose a dark room or a dark cellar to film Gianne is a state of "full possession". This location will give our editor a chance to work on the lighting for the cut.
