Trailer - The Perspectives of Shock [Medialogy]

Trailer to a Aalborg University Copenhagen Medialogy Movie Product

The motivation behind this project was to see if a screen media solution with multiple perspectives on the same narrative could enhance the scary moments in a film. Fear and several theories were investigated within this field. Firstly the theory behind fear was detailed as well as the symptoms of immediate fear and anxiety. Several pre-tests were performed in order to determine how these symptoms could be measured on a viewer watching a horror movie. From this, a new conclusion was made, namely that fear is not easily measured upon. However, shock was clearly detectable and it was therefore necessary to define shock as something to be tested upon. After this several horror film techniques were explored and the genre of the final product was determined to be a horror mocumentary short film. A narrative was established as well as a general filming plan, further more what effects could be implemented in order to enhance the shock moment The test was performed using a Biopac to measure heart rate and video observations to confirm the reactions to the shock as well as a questionnaire. The sources were then compared in order to determine whether or not the final problem statement was answered. This was not the case however, and the project is deemed to not have been a success, because of the lack of answer to the final problem formulation and the large amount of test data which had to be compared.

I was actually one of the people testing that film (though I'm not in the trailer) - it was really funny and a whole new way of seeing a film. Just so you know, I really enjoyed it :D
