Create a promotional package for a new film, to include a teaser trailer, together with a film magazine front cover, featuring the film, and a poster for the film.
Narrative:
College student Alex and her friends go into the woods on a rafting trip. Her friends are killed by the mutant cannibal 'Three Fingers'. She is left to fend for herself, but not for long. Two days later a most dangerous Mexican prisoner, Carlo Chavez, and group of prisoners are being transferred by Nate Wilson, a prison guard, on his last day before leaving to become a lawyer. On the way, Nate meets up with an old friend, Sheriff Calvin Carver, making viewers aware that Nate has been in these lands before. During transportation their bus is attacked by Three Fingers and they escape. While being chased through the woods, the prisoners led by Chavez, use Nate as a guide to lead them to a watch tower to issue an SOS. Officer Walter, now a prisoner, encounters Alex and an abandoned armoured truck filled with cash. The money quickly becomes the prisoners' sole motivation for escape and survival. Chavez commands Walter to pick up one of the bags of money, but Walter refuses because of his injury from Three Fingers. Walter pulls out a gun and tries to shoot Chavez. Unfortunately, the gun was not loaded and Chavez kills Nate's friend.
During the trail, they stumble upon a booby trap. The prisoners escape the booby trap set by Three-Toes. They then catch the son and behead him, leaving a trophy on the spent booby trap for Three Fingers to find as a message. They soon realize it only made Three Fingers even more fearsome. One-by-one, Three Fingers hunts and murders every prisoner and kills the sheriff and his deputy. During the killings, Nate and Alex manage to escape. They are able to find the watch tower, which was badly burned years ago (first movie). Chavez decides to get rid of Nate, but instead promises him another way to get out. They find Three Finger's truck and Chavez uses Alex as bait. Three Fingers kidnapped Alex and Nate rescues her. Floyd steals the money and Chavez chases him down only to see his money burning and Floyd gets killed by Three Fingers. Three Fingers goes to another location to find the rest, until he is face to face with Chavez and battles him with a Hatchet and a meat hook. Both beat one another, but Three Fingers eventually kills Chavez, hangs his corpse in a tree, removes his scalp and eats part of his brain. Nate finds Three Fingers' house with the help of the sheriff's dog and frees Alex. Three Fingers hides behind a door and ambushes Nate. The dog attacks Three Fingers to save them, but is killed by the hook. Alex stabs Three Fingers using the large stake that held Three Toes' head and believes she killed him. Nate and Alex take his tow truck and drive away. Thinking it's over, Three Fingers follows them and gets on top of the truck. Nate crashes into a tree and Brandon the prisoner, sees the whole thing and decides to help them. The truck catches fire and is about to explode, when Brandon gets Alex out then Nate. Three Fingers attempts to attack them but something goes wrong and he is finally killed when Nate stabs him in the head with his own meat hook.
Sometime later, Nate returns to collect the remaining cash from the truck. But Brandon, who is one of the convicts that Nate let go, kills him with an arrow through the chest, with the retort, "Never trust a con". A cannibal appears holding a crude weapon dripping with blood and walks towards Brandon, as Brandon's scream and a hillbilly laugh is heard over the ending credits.
Sound:Camerawork:
The beginning of the trailer shows establishing pan shots looking over the West Virginia forest. This sets the scene for the location of the film. Fast cuts showing people running through the forest, this could indicate they are being chased, therefore giving the audience an insight into the characters and the storyline. There are then short and quick shots of the cannibals using weapons, causing tension and fear for the viewer. Shots taken in the dark signifies dander and horror, typical of this genre. Close up facial shots of the main character, Alex looking frightened, close up shots of the weapons used, possibly in the film. Title sequences in black with a voice over to it adding fear and tension to the film. A short dolly tracking shot of one of the mutants victims being dragged across the floor, then cuts to a night time shot showing one of the cannibals laying over its victim stroking her in a sick yet seductive way. She is screaming while he is licking her face dangerously. This then cuts to a wide shot showing 2 men standing joking around laughing, and 2 women laying in bikinis on a small beach within the forest. This gives the audience the impression something sinister is about to happen, given the storyline and there vulnerability. It also shows there young ages and immature nature. This then fades out close-mid shot of one of the girls taking their bikini top off, then cuts to another voice over and title sequence adding even more tension to the storyline. We then see an over the shoulder shot looking onto one of the young men touching the young woman's breast. Another title comes in as a continuation of the previous title as one sentence, then a fast fade out showing the topless girl being shot at with an arrow, which impales through her back, her breast and stabs through the mans hand. This then switches to a very fast shot lasting less than a second, showing the arrow through the nipple and the hole in the mans hand. Another over the shoulder shot in used on the same girl, showing the arrow through her nipple and the sheer horror on the mans face as he looks at his hand. It then cuts to a flashing title ‘UNRATED’, which we continue to see throughout the trailer. After this, we being to see the booby tramps the mutant cannibals have set out, and very quickly using short and fast shots, we see each victim fall to their death in the booby trap. Towards the middle to the end of the trailer we begin to see more group shots as the characters begin it gang up and work together, then finally stops on a high and shows the end title which is the name of the film, ‘Wrong Turn 3’.
The type of sound used in the trailer of the film uses little non diegetic sounds, the majority of the sounds used are diegetic. The beginning of the trailer uses a screeching sound, them the pitch and pace gets higher and faster as it builds up to the diegetic voice of the girl. We then hear a voice over from what could be a narrator, speaking about the film. Mainly throughout this film it is peoples voices we hear most, and the pitch and pace varies throughout as it builds up to different places throughout the film
