In today's lesson we got into groups to produce ideas for our film. We thought it would be a good idea to get into a group to put forward all of our ideas to achieve something of a high standard.

As this was our first group meeting and we began to discuss what genre we were going to focus our film on. Here is a moodboard of our ideas on genre:
It was today that we decided our genre was the horror genre. The horror genre is generally targeted at those aged from 15-35 so this is the age group we are going to target our film to.
Between the three of us (Lauren Jackett, Maddie Read and I) we came up with various different ideas that we began to write down on a brainstorm. Examples of these included; ghosts, hauntings, stalkers and peer pressure. Here is our brainstorm to explain more.
As you can see, there were a few stories we were interested to follow through and we thought, if possible, we would try to find an abandoned mental asylum or hospital for our setting. We thought this setting would make our film look scary so decided to do some research. Here is a link to the abandoned mental asylum we are going to try to gain access to:
