Tell me in no more than20 words, what is your
FMP idea?
My FMP idea is a psychologicalhorrorthriller that
aims to improveonthe flaws of the previousFinal
Major Project.
Why have youdecided to makeit? I havedecided tomake a psychologicalhorror
thriller thatimproveson the flaws of the FMP
before it.
What aboutyourproject makesit importantto
you?
What is important tome aboutthis project is that
it is horrorthat is tryingto be scary. I have been a
huge fan of horror since quarantine, gettingto
make a horrormovie of my own a secondtime is
importanttome. What also mattersto me is
getting a secondchance tomake a psychological
horrorthriller that I can improvefrom the first
FMP because it had flaws that stopped it from
succeeding in being scary.
Outline someof the initial influences onyour
idea/work and somepotential research targets
(remember, research is notjust a paper-based
activity)
- Us(2019 movie)
- Doctor Sleep (2019 movie)
- Midsommar(2019 movie)
- Layers of fear (2016 videogame)
- Observer(2017 videogame)
What effect do youwant to haveon your
audience when they see yourproject?
I want the audience to be scared by my project
when they see it. The first FMP thatwas supposed
to be scary endedup as repetitive and funny
because it was too light, my actor was better at
being funny thanscary andthe story just kept on
jumpingfrom one victim who dies in a funny way
to the next becomingvery repetitive. I am going
to makethis movie literally darker, I will either get
a new actor tobe scary or get the older one tobe
scary andhave more of a story instead of endless
death, the flaws will make the moviescarier, andI
think this will make the audience scared.
Describe the tone/mood/styleofyour project
[which productiontechniques/characteristicsare
youemploying?]
The tone of my project is serious and scary,
people will not laughat it but see it as horrorand
they will be afraid when watching the movie. The
moodof my project will be suspenseful, the
atmospherewill be constantly jumpy, and
everyonewill be constantly afraid of what will
happennext. The style of my project will be
horror, it’ll have a dark atmosphereandhave
scares at every turn. The
techniques/characteristics I woulduse would be
slow long or movingshotstobuild tension, a dark
atmosphereto makeeverythingunsettling, either
use suspensefulsilence or creepy soundstomake
people unsettled.
Why have youdecided to makeyour project in
this style?
I decided to makethis project in the styleof
horrorbecause I’ma fan of horror, and I want to
make a secondhorror moviethat’simprovedfrom
the original FMP. I’vebeen a fan of horrorsince
quarantine, gettinga chance to makea movie in
the style of horror a secondtime will give me
hoursof fun. I also chosethe style of horror to
have a secondchance at makinga horrormovie, I
want to improveit from the original to make it
scary.
