Genre Research: Horror

 In the horror genre some commonly used camera angles are Close ups, Establishing shots, and Zoom. One commonly used Mis-en-scene in horror is dark lighting and color. Quick cuts are often used in horror films. Creaking is a sound that is used  horror films usually when someone opens a door.


One thing I love about the horror genre is the feeling of fear you create. While on the contrary I am not a big fan of  how overused certain tropes may be.


Some examples of films in this genre are Halloween, Hereditary, and The First Purge.

However while being alone had a lot of downsides it had upsides as well. Working alone me...

I improved a lot on dancing and acting but now was the time to start to finish up. Slowly but surely I was able to get the hand of my steps and sins. I was able to have all the costumes prepared and ready to go. At this point all the props had fulfilled their purpose. I had all the clothing I needed to change into neat me for an easy and quick process. I made sure that the lighting was dark but not so dark that nothing could be seen. The background noise was kept to minimal which allowed for smooth recording. I got all of my scenes done the way I had envisioned it but I did make sure to keep practicing so it can be as good as possible. I continued to film scenes over and over again while taking a few short breaks. Scenes 1 and 7 proved to be a breeze to complete this time especially on comparison to the other times. Sc...
