Inspiration!


Hi Bloggers! Today, let's discuss what inspired my film, What Lurks In Night! When I heard about a movie opener, I instantly thought of the famous movie openers of Scream. If you couldn't tell from my first few blog posts, I am a HUGE Scream fan! I wanted to recreate something similar to the opening scene of Scream. If you have never watched Scream, the movie opener starts with the person or soon-to-be victim of Ghostface. The scene starts off calm, but with the eerie atmosphere, you KNOW something is going to go wrong. In the end, the person dies and gets killed by Ghostface. That inspired me, and I wanted to make my movie opener somewhat similar. 
    
    Another thing that inspired me was this movie trailer Tati sent me. The trailer had a particular type of music that seemed PERFECT for my film, and the typography and font were perfect. As I wanted to make my movie opener similar, I tried to find similar music to the trailers but couldn't. I then combined THREE different non-copyright music to make the music similar to the trailer from which I had been inspired. I am glad Tati sent me that video because it truly improved my video as it added more suspense and mystery to my film. 

Trailer I took inspiration from ^^

My partner and I split the work evenly and I did the foley and editing it, and I did the script.       For our sound story, it was about a soccer game and the process before the game, like getting out of the car and warming up for the game. During the foley process, I realized how loud and chunky I had to be to get the sounds I needed. I chose to make the sounds as I play travel soccer, and I would be able to make the sounds easier as I am experienced in what goes on during a soccer game and how it would and should sound.      It took a lot of work to get the sounds. Most of the time, it was too quiet or there would be background noise since I filmed in a park. I filmed in Miami Lakes Park which is packed on...

It fits the horror standards, as the mood and tone are eerie.
