Media Studies Portfolio


In todays blog post, I wanted to share some information about a movie genre and list some examples of so. Today I wanted to discuss the horror genre which is content created to ignite fear or scary sensations to the viewers.

CONTENT-
 Horror movies consist of creepy characters, gory makeup, disheveled costumes, all to bring the characters to life and make the content so much scarier. Whether its a monster, a clown, a stalker, ect.. horror movies always find ways to make the viewers feel on edge, which is a particular reason many people enjoy the thrill of watching such films.  

PRODUCTION TECHNIQUES-
The techniques used in horror films are magnified by shots and angles along with lighting. Most scary movies are set in dark, isolated settings. Foreshadowing is a technique very commonly used, mainly because of the intensity in the turning points of the movie that really make the viewers want to close their eyes!!

MARKETING-
The marketing of horror films can reach to a wide variety of viewers. Since the horror genre has many sub genres that all fall under the same umbrella, it makes it easier for viewers to find a horror movie that is tailored to exactly how much scary the want to watch. Horror movies are known to be the cheapest to produce, but on the other hand, may not endure as successful of revenue as other genres that cost more to make.

EXAMPLES- See the source image

MA (2019) was a horror film that came out this year about an older lonely women who befriended a group of teenage kids and lured them into her house by offering them drugs and alcohol. She encouraged the teens to have friends over and throw parties to gain trust, and to be viewed as a “cool mom/grandmother” figure which is why she had the kids call her “Ma.” This movie used tons of foreshadowing by allowing the viewers to recognize creepy tactics along with suspicious behaviors from Ma that led everyone to believe she was up to no good. The suspense created in this film was intense with included jump scares and violence.

IT (2017) was a spinoff of the original horror film of “IT” which included tons of makeup and intricate costume design for a scary clown which haunted a group of young kids. This film had many moments of intense violence. The clown would run up to the camera giving some 3D effects to the movie and make you want to jump out of your seat. The film included bloody and gory scenes adding to the effects of the horrific actions the kids had to face in the presence of “IT.”
