Preliminary Task - Silent Movie Research

During out first lesson when discussing the genre of our preliminary and coming up with ideas, us as a group came up with many different types of films that we could do. One of the main ideas we all seemed to like quite a lot was to do a silent film and have the dialogue written inside a frame. Such as the one to your right.
However, we decided against this as it would take a very long time to edit, to find the music we wanted which needed to fit and we wanted to concentrate on the mise-en-scene, camera shots and angles for the preliminary so we had an idea of what worked and what didn't. Our second choice was to do comedy. Our idea was of a prank gone wrong. We eventually decided against this idea as we though would be more useful to do the horror genre because then we would be able to practice appropriate camera-angles, mise-en-scene and sound that would create a horror atmosphere, helping us make our main task more polished and professional.
