Genre suggestions, pt. 3

Although Hammer horror wasn’t the right sub-genre for us, horror seemed to stick in our minds.  The next sub-genre was ‘shaky camera’ in the style of ‘The Blair Witch Project’, ‘REC’, and more recently ‘Paranormal Activity’.  Shaky camera gives the viewer a first person view of what is happening, and makes them feel as if they are in the film and situations the characters are in.  We all agreed that it was realistic to shoot, with little or no production costs.  We then agreed that ‘The Blair Witch Project’ was the best for example for us as there is no CGI or clever filming tricks like in ‘REC’ or ‘Paranormal Activity’.
