The context of my film sequence the lonely wood is about the journey of two friends exploring the woods after hearing of the strange happenings in the local news paper and want to investigate the mysterious events for themselves. I intend to show the audience the newspaper using a flashback.
My intended audience for this film to conform to people who are looking to be scared buy a horror film and want the film to send chills down their necks this is why a audience in the age group of 18 and over would most likely want to see a horror film. I plan for my film sequence to be of the horror genre so it will conform to the conventions of the horror genre, I will use mise en scene to convey the grim darkness of the scene, I will use dark damp patches of light to deliver the darkness of this sequence and to enstill fear into the audience. My sequence will use dark colours to further unsettle the audience and to conform to the conventions of the horror genre. I intend on having the 2 main characters being on opposite ends of intelligence to try and capture more people into the narrative of this sequence. I aim to make a sequence which draws an audience in and keeps the audience watching. I intend to use the stylistics which are common to horror films to give the audience what they want since a film cannot be its chosen genre unless it conforms to the conventions and stylistics that a typical audience expects from it.
