Documenting of influences on production:

A big thing which stood out to me when looking for ideas for our trailer idea was the series "The Missing" this had a huge impact on some of the shots we could use in our trailer. I watched both the first and the second series and i was hooked on both and it made me realise how important different camera angles/shots and non diegetic/diegetic sound is when making a horror film/series. Particularly in "The Missing series 2 trailer" there was some parts of it where the audience are wanting to see the episodes and are counting down the days until it airs. 

The make up in the scenes are also amazing, this encouraged us to explore into make up videos on YouTube to gain the best effect possible by grabbing the audiences attention and thinking the trailer is real life and the audience can really connect emotionally with what is happening and hopefully put themselves in the situation of the characters. 

The second series of The Missing, the trailer shows the vulnerable girl walking through the town, the way the character is walking also shows how much pain she is in. This also encouraged us to make sure 'Hannah' really acted as if she has been really hurt by someone as it shows how effective it is.

The make up tutorial was also very useful as it allowed us to realise how much make up can make a difference. When experimenting with this it worked successfully and made the character look injured which fits really well with our horror trailer.
