Three mind maps of potential ideas for our Thriller trailer.

Here is three different poterntial ideas for our Thriller trailer. We created three different ideas so we could chose for three of the ideas what we liked best. The three ideas was all different so this then meant three different story lines for our Thriller trailer. One of the potential ideas was: Three young teenage girls who are close friends. But then this social group fall apart, this is because of one the three girls get taken. The trailer will make the audience ask them selfs why did the young girl get taken? If the audience ask this question then the trailer will seem more instresting this is because the audience are connecting with the storyline. The secound potential idea was: Three young teenage girlz who are close friends. These three friends are hated by the rest of the school this is due to the fact they are known as the 'bullies' of the school. But the social group decided to peer pressure one of their friends into making a prank call. But this prank call goes wrong and leads on of the friends going missing. The third poterntial idea was: Three young teenage girls who are close friends. But then one of three friends becomes possessed by a ghost. The over two friends try to help her but do they succssed? The overall idea we picked was idea two. This is when three teenage girls who are close friends peer pressure one of their friends into making a prank call that goes wrong. We chose this idea because we thought it was most suited with Thriller films/trailers and the target audience can really connect witht the characters. This is because the target audience is 11-16 year olds,(teenage girls). And the target audience can connect with the targets because they are similar agess.

Primary research

Booking equipment emails.

Here is an email I sent to the dance teacher. This is because we needed to book the dance studio so we could use it in our Thriller trailer.

Focus group.

This is called a focus group. I asked five people aged 19-63 of what they thought of Thriller trailers. This is because I wanted to know what people liked and disliked in Thriller trailers. This is because I wanted to known what to included in my Thriller trailer in order my Thriller trailer to appeal to the audience and my target audience which is teenage girls aged 11-16 years of age. I learnt that what most people enjoy in a Thriller trailer is fast music, quick editing/cuts and the action. Therefore I will included fast music, fast editing/cutting and action in my Thriller trailer this is because this is what most people enjoy in a Thriller trailer.
