1. Common camera movement
and shots used in horror.

2. Close up
This is when there is very little background within the shot it zoom in on a
specific detail of the mise-en-sence this symbolises importance, that that
object as so form of significance within the movie. Horror movie often use
this type of shot as it causes the audience feel emotion towards the thing
that’s being zoomed in on. For instance if was a character the audience
would either feel extremely comfortable and grow fond of the character or
they’ll feel a level of discomfort which would cause them remain on the
edges of their seats.
This shot allows the audience to feel like they’re a part of the movie, it allow
the to feel the character emotions and to get involved with in the movie,
allowing it to me even more frightening as is causes to become a bystander
within the movie.

3. Hand held camera
shot
A hand held camera shot is when the camera is taken of the
tripod and is shot using the camera mans hand. This often
used within horror especially, through out the theme fake
documentary. As it gives of sense of reality which makes it
all the more frightening. It also creates a shaking trembling
affect which is perfect for horror.

4. Establishing shot
An establishing shot captures everything within the scene
this is often used to introduce the setting. This is extremely
popular amongst horror movies and I will be using it in my
trailer. Not only to introduce my setting at the moment the
opening scene would either be an establishing shot of a
house or an empty street but to also help me successfully,
present the theme the unfolding form of terror. Which uses
this shot to express deception.

5. Point of view shot
The point of view shot is when the shot is taken for the point
of view of the character, the audience is able to see through
the characters eyes what they are seeing this allows us to
understand the characters and their emotions. This shot is
popular amongst horror movies as it allow the audience to
become emotionally invested within the movie.
