Inspiration for our supernatural figure - Natasha McGill

Inspiration for our supernatural figure 

There are a few films that I used for inspiration.  Most of which involve a supernatural presence or being which we then followed through and used a supernatural being in our horror film opening. This way it conforms to the conventions of a supernatural horror movie and it looks effective due to the location also being in the forest. Here the image below is what our cape will look like, it will be plain black which will go all the way down to the ankles so a full body with a hood. It will be sort of plastic material with a little tie up round the front to keep the cape on.


The main film at which we got our inspiration from is the Women in Black and this is because a black figure is used and the location for that film as well is the woods and it makes it more effective was it comes across as creepier when she lurks in the forests. The angle of the images shows her standing facing the camera and a shot from behind both of these are effective and helps us to imagine what our black figure is going to look like however our figure is going to have a cape that isn't tight fitting so therefore it will hang loosely. Also as shown in the images she is wearing a veil which adds to the effect of being creepy and makes her look as if she was dead.

 


 
 
So by finding this and gaining inspiration allowed me to find an appropriate outfit for our actor which conforms to supernatural horror movies.
