Hey Guys and welcome back to my blog! Today, I'll be going over different genres starting with Horror. Horror is a very distinct genre. In Horror movies , they tend to have a lot of different conventions from many other movies, and that's what makes it so unique. Horror movies tend to have very close, creepy hots. You'll not really see any far shots, like long or extreme long, because the focus is either on the subject to the fear or the fear itself. Lights, often dark. It's very dark in horror movies to help hone in on that suspense. Acting it depends. Usually the actors are always scared, but depending on the movie, the way that they portray that fear is different. Some will scream, some will just be terrified but not scream, and so-so. Movement in horror movies is very common. A lot of running is involved, it's all about them in this situation. Props are oftentimes the weapons the people or the horror character may have, like a gun, a knife, or something else. Makeup is very over the top sometimes, really driving that fear factor up. Sounds are very sharp, abrupt, and suspenseful to help contribute to the overall fear. Editing is very common, especially for things like blood, and effects. Things like and pans are also really utilized in these genres. There are many films like Train to Busan, It, and A Quiet Place are examples of horror movies that utilize these features. The elements i'd use are definitely the dark lights, the sharp sounds, and the camera cuts.What I wouldn't use, though, are the effects, as those are very over the top and would take a lot of experience to do.
