Research And Planning.












1. From hell - Directed by The hughes Brothers, 8 February 2002 (UK)
2. Franklyn - Directed by Gerald McMorrow, 27 February 2009 (UK)
3. Resident evil. - Directed by Alexander Witt and Russell Mulcahy, released in 2002


Films that have inspired me are 'From Hell' is a 2001 film based on the graphic novel of the same name by Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell. It was directed by the Hughes Brothers, the first and only film they directed outside of the urban film genre. It was first released on October 19, 2001, this movie was influenced by jack the ripper. I would say audiences within the range of 18 and mid 30 would view this film because it includes scenes which contain very strong language,moderate sex and many frightening and disturbing scenes quite often and very gory, also a woman has her heart cut out, the heart is shown dripping with blood. This film will interest women as it is based on love and female life and also people who are interested in history as the film is taken back a century in time. This film is also aimed at everyone of all backgrounds mainly Victorian `england.

'Franklyn' is a 2009 British film written and directed by Gerald McMorrow. We also used the idea of the mysterious man being the bad guy in our production as in Franklyn they also use a mysterious man to be the bad guy. The targeted audience would be between 15 and 30. Audience interested in mysteries and violence will enjoy this film, also people within a range of different ethnicity and background mainly people of a british culture as the film was made in britain.

The film Resident evil is packed full of action, horror, Sci-FI and Thrillers, the targeted audience will be 15 and over as this film contains, sex, nudity, violence and gore,Profanity,Alcohol/Drugs/Smoking,Frightening/Intense Scene and many more. The film will be appropriate for male and female and most of all audience interested in action, thrillers not to forget violence. This type of movie would be viewed by pedestrians who like science and other things along side science. Resident evil is based on both genders and all types of ethnicity as the production includes a lot of make up so you do not come in contact with the persons physicality.


My group and i got our ideas from the film 'From Hell' and also in Franklin i tried to use the same effects as the film for example i used the fade at the end of the film just before the female victim gets murdered.Another film that gave me an idea was residents evil as they use traditional shots in the film dark lighting and big buildings which creates a thriller effect my group and i also use dark lighting and big buildings and also traditional camera angles for example, high angles and close ups which also creates atmospheric tension and makes our production seem more like a thriller.I plan to take some more ideas from the inspiring films, i have chosen for example, the props in the movie Franklin and From hell the main characters who commit the murders wear really dark clothing and a scary mysterious mask which shows the audience its more thriller than comedy. In my production the main character will also be wearing dark everyday clothing except for the fact that there will be no masks. I also plan to use a rage of close ups and medium shots as seen in these films.
