Part 2:
Project Pitch:
Our movie will be about a normal guy that lives his normal life up until a point where he gets hit by a car while talking to his friend about the book he found. Throughout the movie, the main character will slowly start to go insane and tries to fix his “problem” that he thinks was caused by the book. He starts to see dark figures that he thinks that originated from the book. He then seeks help from his friend, but it turns out that his friend wasn’t really as good of a friend as he thought. His friend is a two faced friend who talks behind his back, but our main character will never find out for dramatic irony effect.
Statement of Purpose:
The purpose of our group project is to create a movie/animation is to psychologically mess with the audience and give off a feeling of horror/despair/being stalked. The main way we are going to make people feel scared/creeped out is with the sound, this’ll allow us to set the atmosphere and to further allow us to scare the audience. Once we’ve got the audience scared, we can play around with them, making scenes seem as if something is going to happen, but it might not happen. Our target audience are teens because it is much easier to mess with them, or anyone who enjoys thriller/horror films. Our film will be unique because we will try to take around 5-6 different shots of 1 scene.
