This was a very all over the show week, I had group assignments due for my other subjects and I ended up having to go home on Wednesday night unexpectedly. Although all of this occurred there was progress with our group assignment for Exploding Genre where we have constructed a script, and starting our story board. Im really happy with this progress because it means we will be able to spend more time on filming/editing to be able to create a successful final genre sketch and spend more time on the final Exegesis.

I decided to watch some horror clips as I wasn’t very active/engaged this week, to get some ideas that could contribute to the cinematography and narrative. I watched American Horror Story (season 6) which was a bit of a fail, but made me understand about editing and lighting more intensely for what we want to create. Out of this show I got the ideas of a dark ambience- this is really effective because it can make a simple shot seem more daunting and add to the narrative rather then having to make the scene more complicated. Also what we will need to think about is the sound track and non-diegetic sound. We want to use as less amount of characters as possible so I feel that these different things will be very important in order to put together this genre sketch.
