The costumes and props are important in films, it makes it more realistic for the audience as well as making it clear of the characters in the film. From watching a lot of thriller and horror films we can see what type of clothes they wear and what props they have. In our film we don't want to use too many props but we are going to use a lot of dark colours such as black and navy for our costumes . We believe that dark colours in horror films makes it more scary and more realistic from other colours such as pinks and bright colours. Dark colours are the usual codes and conventions in the thriller horror genre.

This is an short film demonstrating the hypodermic needle effect after watching a killer movie 'Scream' influences the way in which the boy reacts and the devastating incident that occurred. From the shots taken earlier using Muzzy I experimented using effects to create a more sinister look and they turned out successful.
From analysing with the modern posters we decided to look at the different codes and conventions of vintage horror- thriller posters. As they portray different colours and format such as tile appearing in bright abstract colours and diagonally presented to appeal to the audience.
