Planning- Ideas for Trailer


  • The whole trailer starts off with a single, high angle shot of the tree- camera somehow suspended in the air, but tracks down the tree to where it is silent, but two seconds later, the hatchet/weapon slams against the tree 
  • Camera cuts to tracking & fast paced shot of one of the characters running through the woods (ambient sound in background i.e. sound of leaves & tense music)
  • Camera cuts to the main scene- introduced to all the characters (with names credited).. establishing shot used to show surrounding area, cars and fores
  • Shot of characters drinking, socializing, having a laugh, sitting around a campfire (rough time around 5/6 pm).. could use vlogger type shots (holding camera or resting camera somewhere) and have video recording overlay to add a little personal touch to the film and enable audience to get closer with the characters
  • In distance of shot, un-focused, the killer is standing there behind the flames in the forest, with his weapon out (scary sound effect used). No one notices him
  • Cut to shot of killer slowly taking footsteps towards the group of friends & POV shot from his perspective... tense music used
