After analysing several short films, the most popular genre used was horror, thriller and action. These genres are appealing to short film makers because it is easy to show the events in detail and overall, to create a very short storyline but with a lot of impact and action, rather than trying to include all the dense information and events which are needed to make other genre films, for example, chick flicks and crime films.
From this, we both decided the most appealing genre to us would be thriller. We felt this would be appropriate was we could conform to the conventions easily still with our financial and locational constraints. Our initial idea is to create a documentary based film where it would be easy to create a very concise line, introducing characters and following a simple storyline which is easy to follow. Also, we feel that by creating a realistic view in a documentary form would help to add impact on the audience and create a great shocking film.
