The Shining Teaser Trailer Analysis

I have analysed The Shining as it shows examples of how low key lighting is used in horror and has helped me develop my skills to understand and spot fulfilled conventions and help me think of ideas for my own trailer. There are also establishing shots in the trailer which follow the convention of locations. For example, there are mountains and large mansions in the middle of nowhere to emphasise the atmosphere of isolation. I am going to film in a forest as forests are a stereotypical place of creepy, isolated and atmospheric locations. I will take some photographs of my location and will post them soon before I start my filming.
