ABOUT THE WEBINAR
In movies ranging from Jaws to The Shining, from The Godfather to The Conjuring, there are scenes that stand out for bringing us to the edge of our seats and sending chills up our spines. This webinar will explore the techniques that the writer of the horror/paranormal screenplay uses to craft those suspenseful, heart-pounding screen sequences, teaching you to make those scary moments on the page just as terrifying to the reader as they would be to an audience watching them play out on a screen in a darkened theater. In the same way that a screenplay for a comedy has to be funny if it's going to sell, the screenplay for a horror movie has to be scary if it's going to sell.
This webinar, taught by horror pro Neal Marshall Stevens (13 Ghosts, Hellraiser:Deader), will explore the nuts and bolts techniques that working screenwriters and filmmakers use to create fear on the page and on the screen, using examples from classic and contemporary films ranging from Night of the Living Dead to Paranormal Activity--including examples from his own screenplays. Participants will explore the importance of properly structuring and setting up scares, where and when to use the "boo" moment, and the importance of developing the "sense of dread."
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:
- Curious Fear--the instinct that draws us down the corridor
- The "Boo"--all the different ways to make an audience jump
- The Structure of the Horror "Gag" -- setting Up and Paying Off a Scare
