Psychological

The subgenre which I have chosen is Psychological films.

Psychological subgenre is one that reflects a character's fears, guilt, beliefs eerie sound effects, relevant music and emotional instability to create tension and drive and motivate the plot forward to scare the viewer.

Conventions

A convention of this subgenre is the fact that these films tend to rely on the characters beliefs, fears and other hidden truths about the character/what they have done, and the antagonist will target those particular things.

There is often someone who hides their evil identity and nobody else finds about it until the climax of the film.

Contrapuntal music is often used to contradict whatever is happening on the screen, which makes for a more dramatic effect.

The killer is often your average character, which surprises the audience since they evolve to become the protagonist/antagonist.

The majority of settings are typical everyday ones such as big houses, woodland locations, warehouses, schools and hospitals, so that the audience can relate to these locations.

Idea

A woman is walking home

She feels worried since there is nobody on the streets since it is late.

She keeps looking around her for something and hears faint noises

She enters a train station which is empty, despite one small boy with a hood who looks to the floor the whole time.

She leaves the train once she gets to her stop, and the boy follows her.

She tries to call for help but her phone receives no signal and has no battery.

She notices the boy following her but carries on going home.

She finally arrives home to see the boy covered in blood inside her house.

Conventions

The fact that the antagonist is someone normal and a typical character follows convention.

Settings which are relatable for the viewer are in the ots for example the train.

The ots remains very enigmatic and makes the viewer raise questions.

Targets

Making sure the sounds are made louder using volume control

Try to use as many different camera shot types as you can, but keeping it relevant.

Make sure the editing starts off slow and speeds up.
