Starting point..

For our teaser trailer we have ultimately decided to make our genre horror/thriller. We decided this because a genre such as this is easy to portray for such amateur work, to create a tense and sinister atmosphere is relatively easy as fear is a feeling that is quite simple to bring out in people. The equation for a horror trailer, is fast snappy shots, in a domestic area, not much dialogue and as a general rule of thumb is set at night time, and because we have only home video cameras, the technique of hand held camera, can be justified with films such as The Blair Witch Project and Cloverfield. But this is just the beginning to our planning for a trailer, as we have seen plenty of horror films ourselves and horror trailers we know what generally makes us scared when we see these texts, and so we already have the basic knowledge of what is going to make this project good; we still need to do more research. We need to look more closely at teaser trailers, and then specifically at horror trailers, but also horror films.

Pitch
Rosie has a secret..something that no one in her present life knows about until now. Betsy has been a phycatrist for over the past 20 years and for all her time served to estranged patients from the St Mary's hospital she has never come across a story like Rosie's.
The Cult is the previous home of Rosie where she lived with her mother and two brothers.. at the age of 16 she'd finally had had enough of the abuse and torture her elders oposed on her and managed to escape to a new life and new world outside the religious bounds this cult has given her. 10 years later she comes across her past that never fails to haunt her, and has to fight to save herself and everything she has built around her.
