Movie Proposal

Creative Media Production Project- Movie Proposal

Format & Medium: I will be creating a supernatural horror film poster. It will be A4 sized and is a print movie poster, this will be used in magazines for example, "Total Film".

Sector: The purpose of the movie poster is to advertise "Escape Purgatory" in as many different magazines as possible to that it will appeal to my target audience, this is a part of film marketing. This method is another way of making my film more noticed and that way my audience will go and watch the film. 

Working Title: Escape Purgatory

Genre: Supernatural horror is a sub-genre which include ghosts, demons etc its most popular when creating a horror film so I have decided to use this genre and created an analysis to explore the existing supernatural horror films. 

Intended Audience & Age: My target audience will be aimed both genders (Male/Female) at the age of 18+. The reason for this is because the film is a supernatural horror that anyone under the age 18 may not be able to cope with any unpleasant scenes that may occur on my movie poster.

Summary of content: "Escape Purgatory" will be based at an isolated old fashioned bed & breakfast called the Mountain Meadow near a lake. The B&B is 25 miles away from the city and an average newlywed couple plan there honeymoon a 3 day trip to the Mountain Meadow, as they get to the lake set B&B they meet the owners of the place, however the wife notices that their is something rather unusual about the couple. As the day went the newlyweds begin to sleep the day off and experience some discomforting supernatural events which take them into a non-existing dimension formally known as "purgatory" which makes them believe they're dead and they are lead by the devil himself. The devil tests the couple by trying to see if they survive different obstacles, but this leaves only one of the newlyweds fighting for their real life.    

Summary of style: I would like my movie poster to look quite mysterious but also keep in line with the supernatural horror genre. I want the style of my font to look quite gothic but also old-fashioned, so that way it'll have some sort of connection with the storyline. In some way I want my movie poster make the audience feel a little bit of fear and be nervous to watch my film so i will do this by make

Legal & ethical considerations: I will need to make sure that any of my iconography that has a brand name will have permission to appear in my film. i will also make sure that the BBFC age restriction is most definitely 18+ as it isn't  suitable for ages any younger due to any violent scenes or death related scenes.
