    Student name Finley – Cash Waters

    Student ID number 10649326

    Selected film genre Horror


    Please highlight Teen Coming of Age
    Superhero

    Suggested film title NEW YORK NIGHTMARE


    1. Please write the synopsis for your chosen film idea below.
    The must use 3 act structure
    Incorporate 1 element of enigma
    200 – 300 Words
    The reason why I have decided to do a horror film idea is that one I’m a
    horror/thriller movie fan. Also, I think I can really do something with the
    idea I have for this final major project. What I mean by this, is that I’m
    thinking of is carrying on with my psycho theme I did and used in my horror
    film movie poster, of course I won’ t be using the same horror movie poster
    but I’m thinking about using the same type of theme and characters like the
    weeknd character I used for my horror movie poster. Also, the movie I’m
    kind of taking inspiration of is the Christian Bale horror movie ‘American
    Psycho’. What I mean by this is that if you have seen American psycho and
    the original psycho film and my horror movie poster then you can clearly see
    that I was inspired by these two films. I was also inspired by the weeknd’s
    new character from his last album, I may be mistaken but I do believe his
    new look for his album was inspired by American psycho and other slasher
    films. However, that’s the idea I got from watching his music videos.
    Therefore, those are the main reasons why I picked to do a horror film, I can
    use the same characters and inspiration I used on my original horror movie
    poster.

    2. You must pick one of the following to create to promote your film
    Please highlight only one

    Teaser Trailer

    DVD Cover

    Theatrical poster (landscape billboard)


    3. You must pick one of the following to create to promote your film alongside
    your main choice
    Please highlight only one

    Teaser poster

    Social media promotional image

    Graphic storyboard

    4. Why have you chosen these media products to market your film idea?
    I think the teaser poster is enough to hype up and would really be a
    great way to market the film. I believe this because I think I can say for
    every marvel fan when you think of a poster for avengers’ endgame
    that teaser poster comes first. Because of all the hype infinity war
    made, and this endgame poster was the first thing we saw for the last
    avenger’s film. And all this hype was just because of a teaser poster.

    5. In the box below list all the sources you plan to research to aid you with
    your project.
    This can include

    9. Who is the intended audience for your film campaign

    How to survive a final major project

    1. Do something you enjoy – look back on projects this year and think about
    what skills you’ve learnt and which you have really enjoyed. What job would
    you like to do in the future? How can you apply it to your project?
    LOVE YOUR PROJECT

    2. Do lots and lots of research – primary and secondary are both essential.
    Use a wide range of methods and resources (as covered in unit 2).

    3. Manage your time – 11 weeks is not long. Just think how fast this year has
    gone so far. Plan ahead and don’t fall behind. MAKE USE OF
    INDEPENDENT STUDY TIME.

    4. You must document everything what happens as you go along. Your entire
    journey from start to finish should be fully recorded. Describe and analyse as
    you go along. Every aspect of your project should be fully considered. Your
    Project Action Plan and Timetable will be vital to the success of your FMP

    5. Research, design, experiment, build, evaluate. Your project should evolve


    over the allotted time. Be flexible and adaptable if your FMP decides to go in
    a different direction than first intended

    6. Critically analyse and evaluate – this will refer to the research you undertake,
    the pre-production, production and post-production. Don’t just describe but
    analyse, interpret, research and evaluate.

    7. Listen to advice from your lecturers in formative assessment


    sessions throughout the project. You might just find that as we are used to
    marking work we know what the requirements are to make good/exceptional
    projects. Remember, your work will be graded at Pass, Merit or Distinction,
    so aim for the best grade you can and take advice on board when given
