LIGHTING
As we are filming a teaser trailer, the aim of which being to grab the audiences attention with glimpses of the plot and other parts of the film that they would be interested in, we came to the conclusion that we would be use a range of different lighting in order to create the desired effect of action and suspense that a slasher film requires. We did however place more focus on the darker shade of the lighting spectrum, as it matched the conventions of our chosen genre. Some of the other lighting we chose did have more yellow shades, this was a deliberate choice that we made as meat is a focus of the trailer and the shades of yellow helped to emphasise the meat.
In the teaser trailer of Carrie (2014) the lighting is mostly dark, with the focus of fire. Though we have no intentions of using fire, we believe that the yellow colour of the lighting makes the blood stand out, and also think that this would be a good colour to use as it would emphasise the blood and meats that we plan to use.
