Genre Decision Blog


After examining the many types of techniques used in various genres, I have decided to use the genre of horror to create my production. The techniques I have selected to use that I feel will enhance this creation will be ambient sound, wide shots and tracking shots. I hope with the use of these elements I will be able to create an effective, scary, thought-provoking horror genre that will be both entertaining and unpredictable, as well as terrifying for the viewers. With the use of special effects, camera angles and shots and specific acting techniques, I hope the production will be all the things a carefully plotted horror should be and more.

When it comes to producing and editing my all about me commercial, there are many key factors. The key factor I will be discussing are the songs I chose. I will also talk about where they will be used in the commercial. For the commercial I will be choosing two songs that represent me. These songs will describe me as a person. One song will represent one of my past favorite hobbies. The other song will represent a special moment in my life. But to start off with, I will announce the final picture and video order. It will start off with a picture of me age three, with my Mom and Dad. This will be followed by another picture of me age four at my first year of baseball.

CCR: Question 1 and 4

Hey Cambridge, I will be filming a day in the life of Dylan Tanner as I answer questions 1 and 4 of the CCR for AICE Media.   How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues? In response to the first question, let’s break it down into two parts to better address both issues.   While filming this production, I chose to use a lot of shadowy imagery with fade-ins, fade-outs, tracking and sounds to build suspense without ever giving away the ‘actual monster’s’ face.   I used a variety of camera shots spanning from wide angles to close ups. I chose a variety of close-ups of the character’s faces to only reveal looks of horror and fear and to keep the identity of the ‘devil’ under wraps.    The music in the background starts out with a pleasant and low tone sound, with is paired with a visual of a clear road leading into the woods.   The tune becomes more ominous and the visual changes into a narrower an...
