Conventions of a short horror film




These are some of the conventions that we had to consider when planning the creation of our short film
Each convention serves a different purpose. There are many different conventions which are used within horror films to create different effects such as suspense.  I have only chosen to list the a few specific conventions which will be useful when creating our horror film
-Blood - Aids the to film become more realistic.
-Weaponry- helps create suspense with the possibility of an attack within horror films
- Low levels of lighting- also helps to create suspense to the audience
- ancient setting- Where most films are set and helps create emptiness  and a scenes and  isolating the character creates a feeling of suspense.

  1. Jordan, it may be an idea to actually consider the effects achieved and what purpose they each serve.
