If we are looking for inspiration on composition/cinematography, these films are great to watch. They have really artsy and exaggerated lighting which captures vivid emotions and creates an edgy atmosphere.]]> 2023-10-03 12:44:02 UTC https://padlet.com/20chanp7/g9n462lcdu3amw0j/wish/2730171625 References 20chanp7 https://padlet.com/20chanp7/g9n462lcdu3amw0j/wish/2730176826 https://time.com/100-best-childrens-books/

There's an 'uncanny valley' factor to it which puts the audience on edge. This also contrasts with the wider perception that "Animation is for children".]]> 2023-10-03 12:53:18 UTC https://padlet.com/20chanp7/g9n462lcdu3amw0j/wish/2730187565 20chanp7 https://padlet.com/20chanp7/g9n462lcdu3amw0j/wish/2731307280 A young adult book series was adapted into graphic novel form. I think that the combined use of drawn comic and photographs was unique and visually attractive. The storyline is quite dark and can get gruesome at times, perhaps we can explore this fantasy element of horror that allows kids to consume horror while maintaining a distance from it.]]> 2023-10-04 03:03:17 UTC https://padlet.com/20chanp7/g9n462lcdu3amw0j/wish/2731307280 20chanp7 https://padlet.com/20chanp7/g9n462lcdu3amw0j/wish/2731312585 Halloween arts and crafts are pretty popular among children since it allows them to contribute to decorating for the celebration.

Horror monsters play a huge role in many horror genres, such as supernatural horror. As such, I think perhaps we can explore the theme of "Monster" more for the following reasons:
- Kids all have their personal monsters
- Horror utilises monster regularly
- It relates to "Who are we?" project title if we make this our theme and find a common personal monster that we all share.]]> 2023-10-04 03:26:17 UTC https://padlet.com/20chanp7/g9n462lcdu3amw0j/wish/2731336860 20chanp7 https://padlet.com/20chanp7/g9n462lcdu3amw0j/wish/2731344524 There was a series called "Classic Comics" which adapted classic English novels into graphic novels.

Sousa, who co-directed the bittersweet 2021 graduate film at Gobelins, has just released a very funny trailer for a nightmare animated series called Playground. Rodrigo Souza: “This project
Coming from my taste in horror movies and series and the scary things I watched when I was younger. "The Brave Dog Cowardly", "Goosebumps", "Pan's Labyrinth" or the creatures in Spirited Away are all examples of these childhood memories. "Plus horror animations are not that common these days, which made me want to do this project. "I chose to make a trailer because I could show multiple scenes and characters in a short time, showing off a vast and mysterious world. Not saying much about the story will spark curiosity more than explaining everything.

"I wanted to contrast the eerie pitch-black horror with the colorful palette of children's parks and toys." "I made the film in my spare time. It took me about six months from pre-production to post-production to create this concept trailer. I animated it in TVPpaint and animated some directly in After Effects. “The universe presented by the trailer is a mix of childhood imagery, such as playgrounds, bouncy castles, ball pits, and amusement parks , and the creepy creatures lurking in the dark fringe spaces. I wanted to contrast the eerie pitch-black horror with the colorful palette of children's parks and toys. The tense and dissonant music and sound design were handled by Jérémy Ben Ammar, who had previously worked with the director on Gobelins.

After all, weren’t we all frightened as children? Nothing has changed since Little Red Riding Hood faced the big bad wolf. What frightens us today is exactly the same sort of thing that frightened us yesterday. It’s just a different wolf. This fright complex is rooted in every individual.”
