Plot Synopsis

Before I could continue in the making of my media product I had to distinguish a synopsis to help me story board my trailer. The plot synopsis for The Terror is as followed:

Isobella is a girl who never had the chance to grow up. Her paranormal spirit lives in envy of her older sister Francesca who survived the fatal car crash. Ever since her death, Isobella has wanted revenge on her sister, as she feels she has been forgotten. On Francesca’s 18th birthday, she celebrates with a group of friends by having a camping trip. Isobella follows and plans to take her revenge whilst alone in the forest.
I didn’t want to give too much away in my plot synopsis because I wanted to keep ambiguity within my project, as I found through my research that many horror films use ambiguity in their marketing strategies and sometimes in promotional material to do well as the potential audience for the film are not aware what the film is about, this could mean that they will see the film because they are curious about what happens.
