Target Audience

Conventions of genreo Our chosen genre for our film is ‘Horror’.

Style Model 1 One of our style models is “The Woman In Black” directed by James Watkins.We chose this because the locations (remote village) and plot are very similar to the ones we have chosen. We feel that this film is a good model to base our film on and do research about as it relates to our ideas well. However, this is not completely the same as we are using a young female actor/voice for the ghosts voice as we feel that a young girls voice can sometimes be perceived as frightening and spooky.

Style Model 2o We have also chosen the “Sixth

Sense” by M. Night Shyamalan as our second style model.

o We feel that this film relates very well to the plot we have chosen. However, the location differs in this film to the film we are making because the location of filming is in the city.
