Name for Short Film

Between the gaps Barn Renovate Renovation Moving Day The Barn House Locked out Creeper Hiden Different fonts to potentially use? I wanted to use a font that was very distorted & looked scary. These 3 fonts were singled out as I thought they looked like they would suit the horror genre. The top left and the bottom centre look sort of like wood so I thought they link to the location of the barn which is made out of wood.

This will help me not include aspects of horror films that the minority does not like about Horror films, this in turn will hopefully allow my film to then become much more like able and specific for an audience/age group which enjoys Horror genre films. Questions Asked? Do you like Horror films? Do you enjoy the jump scares? Do you find them scary? After asking students these 3 basic questions, I felt as though I had a better understanding of what the conventions that horror fans really like when they watch the films. As a result to the survey, even though question 2 (Do you enjoy the jump scares?) is not really a popular convention, I feel as though due to the film being so short (Less than 5 mins), I feel for my film to be as scary as possible, I will need to include these jump scares to ensure that it abides and contributes to the horror g...
