Jessica Underwood proposes three film trailer pitches: 1) A horror/thriller chase scene trailer featuring supernatural events in a woman's house or an intruder. It will use canted angles, close ups, depth of field and sudden sounds to build tension. 2) A psychological thriller trailer about a girl stalked and abducted in the woods after a nearby murder. It will show the stalker stealing the girl's identity without revealing their own. 3) A horror thriller trailer where friends hear strange noises in a house at night, search but find things moved on returning, suggesting supernatural forces like poltergeists.

60 Second Pitches Jessica Underwood
Pitch 1: Film Trailer • I aim to make a film trailer of the horror/thriller genre because I enjoyed creating a film opening sequence of the same genre as part of my AS coursework. • Technical conventions I will use include canted angles, extreme close ups, depth of field and sudden sounds within quiet scenes to build tension within the audience. • The trailer will feature a chase scene which will be continued throughout the duration, however I will cut to flashbacks of the events that took place beforehand. She will have been experiencing supernatural things happen in her house OR there could be an intruder. • The chase scene will build suspense as well as conform to genre conventions. • Non diegetic sound of her breathing heavily and panicking throughout • Target audience of both genders aged 15 and upwards
Pitch 2: Film Trailer • Psychological Thriller • Themes of reality, death and identity are key conventions of this particular genre. • Girl is being followed in the woods shortly after a murder has taken place there/nearby, unaware that she is being stalked. She gets abducted by her stalker. The ending scene will show the antagonist stealing the girls identity, however their own identity will not be revealed to the audience. • Props that are distinct to the victims appearance (e.g. glasses) • Incorporate elements of action and mystery (the stalkers identity would not be revealed to the audience) • Target audience of both genders ages 15 and upwards
Pitch 3: Film Trailer • Also a thriller with a sub-genre of horror • Set in a house during the night time (more sinister setting) • A group of friends are sat watching tv and begin to hear noises, they search for the source of the sound but come back to find that things have been moved • Theme of the supernatural – poltergeists, demons? • Target audience of both males and females aged 15 and upwards • Conventions used will be typical of the horror thriller genre; dark lighting, dark colouring (colours such as red and black)
