In order to help us when developing ideas for the opening of our horror film we analysed other film openings from several different horror movies that are aimed at a teenage audience. We mind mapped the different ways in which codes such as the use of sound, camera, editing and miss-en-scene are used to effect the atmosphere of the film and help form conventions of horror films that were used in the opening.
Through doing this we gained a much better understanding of what representations of characters(stereotypes and counter counterstereotypes) and conventions were appropriate to use for a horror film and how to use the different codes to portray these conventions successfully to ensure that our own film opening has verisimilitude.
