Thinking About Fear

In this task we were to write down what we fear, why we are scared of it, and how it has triggered to fear the stressful stimulus. I learned that my group's fears are drowning, heights and Slender, but I don't think there's ways of linking them together to form a very good story for my upcoming horror trailer. I could look at a single fear and dig deeper to find out ways to turn the fear into a story, but I don't think I'm quite ready to move onto this stage because I'll need some research and even before that I'll need to have everything planned out.

I can use the information we have written down about why we fear to interpret the reasons into the story so I can gain the effect of fear in my horror trailer. I can also use the ways it has triggered us to be scared of our fears because usually in horror trailers you build up the fear and something has to trigger it at the beginning so if I get to understand the ways people are caused to fear the stimulus, I'll be able to achieve a better storyboard.

We decided to put down any films or games we could relate to our fears to perhaps look at for ideas and inspiration.
