20 girls and boys in the forest. The atmosphere is lively and everyone is dancing and singing
(Dark and Foggy with red smoke surrounding the place)
(A Cross will be shown to show vulnerability and weakness)
Then all of a sudden hear a knock on the door, so 2 boys go to open only to find out there was no one knocking at the door.
SCREAMS* SCREAMS* From the creek as one girl coming crying down telling the others her friends just been possessed by a vampire that has been around in the forrest this whole time ( At this time we start to see blood pouring out of the girl whos been possessed)
The suspense builds up as now everyone is terrified and don't know how to help the poor girl screaming from the creek.
5 Boys go down near the river see the blood horrifying scene of girl lying on the floor with blood dripping as the girl vampire had been sucking the girl's neck and no one had
known what to do to save her, but it was too late she would of had also
become a vampire at that time there was nothing anyway could do about it.
Then everyone decided in the forest hat stays here stays. No one else at Home or school should know about this incident that has happened,instead everyone should remain slient.
Represenations
Vampires are being as being nasty and vile.We get this awful image in our heads of how vampires like to suck human blood.They have supernatural powers,are attractive,eternally young and do not have to fear death at all.

Analysising:Hunger
From the trailer I would say that the Genre is Thriller and the sub-genre is Romance.The film also seems like its from the 70/80s and therefore the lighting and props aren't as modern as today.The shots taken are very fast towards the end making the audience feel tension and more engaged to know whats going to happen next.The music conveys fear and something bad is going to happen as the pace starts to get faster and there is higher volume.There's Romance which happens at the same time of two different couples, this is where crossing cutting has been used to show the different locations each couple are.The monkey is a big influence and significances something dramatic within the film.Most camera shots have been medium long shot of the man locked up in the cell to show his emotions and the background.

Let the Right One In
From the opening I would say that the film is Thriller and the sub-genre is vampires.The non-diegetic music makes the audience feel tense and very aware of the whats going on. The atmosphere is very dark and dull and could be an unknown place as most thrillers are filmed in hidden areas.
Throughout the trailer there have been lots of different types of camera shots to convey the meaning of the movie.Some camera shots have been used at such high angles to show the overlook of the surrounds which is an just like an establishing shot. There was also two shots between the characters Eli and Oscar when they were having their conversation.The use of this is to create the sense that were actually viewing the conversation between the two.The use of high angle shots shows the person below and creates a bigger picture.The image of Vampires is seen as negative because of the way how there represented by their teeth, the feasting on blood,fear of sunlight and death by wooden steak.

5 Top Tips

Match on Action and 180 Degree rule
A screen play is visual and your characters actions move the story forward from scene to scene.The characters dialogue supports the actions
Match on Action:Match on action (or cutting on action) is an editing technique for
continuity editing in which one shot cuts to another shot portraying the
action of the subject in the first shot. This creates the impression of a sense of continuity – the action
carrying through creates a “visual bridge” which draws the viewer’s
attention away from slight cutting or continuity issues. This is not a
graphic match or match cut, it portrays a continuous sense of the same
action rather than matching two separate things.
180 degree rule: The 180° rule The 180° rule is a filming guideline that participants in a scene should have the same left-right relationship to each other, with filming only taking place within the 180° angle in which this is maintained in a conversation,
