Inspiration research and trailer

The conjuring movie is based on real life event and this is the article to prove it....


The True Story
The Conjuring's poster boldly proclaims that it's "based on the true case files of the Warrens." So who are the Warrens, anyway? The real-life couple, Ed and Lorraine (played in the film by Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson), were American paranormal investigators that founded the New England Society for Psychic Research in 1952.
The Warrens' 10,000-plus career cases include the alleged haunting depicted in The Conjuring. In 1971, Roger and Carolyn Perron moved into a colonial farmhouse in Harrisville, R.I., with their five daughters, and quickly began experiencing what they described as both haunting and spiritual possessions. They invited the Warrens to the farmhouse to investigate. Over the nine years they lived in the house, the Perrons described spirits, both harmless and angry, that "stunk of rotting flesh" and routinely arrived at 5:15 a.m. to levitate their beds.
So how much of that is true? The real-life Perron family swears by their story, throwing their full weight behind the film and even appearing in some of The Conjuring's marketing materials. "Because I was the youngest and the most vulnerable, I was approached more than anyone, and I actually had a relationship with that [ghostly] boy," said April Perron in a trailer promoting the film.
Of course, there are plenty of people who doubt the story. Steven Novella, the president of the New England Skeptical Society, told USA Today that "there is absolutely no reason to believe there is any legitimacy" to the Warrens' reports on the Perron haunting—or, for that matter, to any of the Warrens' cases.
The Conjuring "is a fair reflection of the chaos and danger we faced at the farm," countered Andrea Perron. "There are liberties taken and a few discrepancies, but overall, it is what it claims to be based on a true story, believe it or not."

Movie magazine codes and conventions

These are the codes and conventions of movie magazines. I researched these to help me when I am creating my own movie magazine front cover and give me key ideas.

Movie magazine analysis 2

The second cover I analysed was Empire magazine featuring Twilight. I though it would be beneficial to analyse this as it is related to the horror theme with the dark colours and the main image is scary looking.

Movie magazine analysis

I analysed the front cover of Total Film featuring Sherlock Holmes. I thought this cover was very captivating therefore I felt it would be good to analyse.

Insidious 3 poster analysis

 

This is a poster for Insidious: Chapter 3, part of the popular insidious franchise. This poster has been produced to help promote the film prior to its release to help build excitement and give small hint into what will occur in the latest film in the franchise. The poster also features important information about the film; it gives the rough time the film comes. In addition to this is gives a list of the main actors in the film and other institutional features such as the directors and producers of the film. The poster is clearly one of the horror genre, this can be clearly seen by the use of a quote ‘This is how you die.’ This is written in a sans serif white text on a dark background, this allows it to be extremely visible. In addition to this, the poster features very low key lighting, this connotes evil and darkness, helping build a suspension for the audience. In addition, the main character shown is a young female; this is very stereotypical of a supernatural horror as young females are used due to their vulnerability. The use of one strip of lighting helps show the shocked facial expression on the young female represented in the main image on the poster. The setting used for the main image is on the girls bedroom, this is clear to tell due to props such as the bed and lamp. The text on the page is written in red and white against a dark background, not only does this help it stand out but the red helps connote blood and danger which are two clear conventions which run throughout the genre of horror.

The front cover is dominated by a female; she is the main protagonist in the film. A medium shot is used to show the young female sitting up in bed. This allows us to see enough of her to see her scared body position, but also still close enough to see her shocked and scared facial expressions. The fact there is only the one character featured on the front cover clearly shows she is the main character. There is no text covering the girl at all, this helps to also portray her importance within the film.

I consider the target audience for the film to be both males and females of between 16-24. My reasons for this are due to the age of the main character in the film. As she is only a teenager, people of this age bracket will be able to connect with her. In addition to this, due to the franchise being established but still relatively young, many people within the age gap of 16-24 will have heard, if not seen a previous chapter of the film, therefore knowing what is likely to occur. There are two tag lines that feature on the poster; at the top left lies ‘THIS IS HOW YOU DIE’ and the second located just above the film institution information says ‘THE DARKEST CHAPTER GOES BACK TO THE BEGINNING.’ Both of these are used to help build a dark and dramatic atmosphere due to the shocking language. The use of words such as ‘darkness’ and ‘die’ also once again help to connote the poster is advertising a horror film. The use of crediting the production companies such as Atomatik Entertainment who have also produced many other well-known films such as ‘Sinister’ allows a wider audience to be attracted if they are fans of previous films made by the producers. I believe the unique selling point of this poster is the iconic ‘Insidious’ logo. The reasons for this are due to how established the franchise is. This allows the huge fan base of the previous films to be able to easily recognise the film and know roughly what the story line will be.
