Our ideas were inspired by our location of the lift; our short film fits into the genre of supernatural horror as we incorporated the element of a ghostly figure. The outline idea of our short film was that a girl, alone in a school setting, takes the elevator down from the top floor; during the way down in the lift the girl is shown to see a figure through a small window. From this we then show this ghostly figure to be on the floor of which the girl goes down to; the girl then retreats back into the lift but is followed in and the ending has no clear conclusion as to the outcome of the girl in the lift. This is not an eccentric plot that follows a lot of the conventions of horror or fits into a specific genre of horror.
Shots & development of the short film:
- tracking shot - shows the girl characters feet
- the camera tilting up and down - shot through the little window in the lift/ POV shot - to see the ghostly figure
- close up of girl's eyes
- CCTV - high rise shot inside the lift
- shots of doorways - low angle - lights flickering
- POV shots - the girl seeing the ghost - running into the lift - handheld
- close up of hand of ghost grabbing the girl's shoulder - then cuts to black
