Friday the 13th Presentation Friday The 13th, we will be showing you information on the followed film we believe it is a great film, one of the best in the slasher/horror genre. Friday the 13th is an American horror franchise that consists of twelve slasher films, a television show, novels, comic books, and tie-in merchandise. The franchise mainly focuses on the fictional character of Jason Voorhees, who drowned at Camp Crystal Lake as a boy due to the negligence of the camp staff. The first film was created to cash in on the success of Halloween!!!

Reviews Although the films were not popular with critics, Friday the 13th is considered one of the most successful media franchises in America—not only for the success of the films, but also because of the extensive merchandising and repeated references to the series in popular culture.The franchise's popularity has generated a fan base who have created their own Friday the 13th films, replica Jason Voorhees costumes, and tattooed their bodies with Friday the 13th artwork. Jason’s hockey mask has even become one of the most recognizable images in popular culture.

Production After the1st sequel, the movie became very popular and its own success led Paramount Pictures to purchase the full licensing rights to the Friday the 13th franchise. Frank Mancuso, Jr., who produced the films, also developed the television show Friday the 13th: The Series. This is important as films tend to do better when under major company's such as paramount pictures, as the film is under good hands, who have worked in the industry and gained a lot of success, this highlights the difference between independent movie and Hollywood.

Editing Editing is a important process to the final product of a movie, editing is the process in which bits of the movie and taken out or put together, adding special effects etc. Furthermore this movie is editing in a interesting way, the movie sets of with a calm. The fact that we do not see anyone for the first 21 seconds, builds a ominous film to trailer, suddenly the mood of the trailer the changes at there is a low angled shot of a car fly over, the music changes to a more up-tempo song, this is interesting as the begging tricks the audience to think something was going happen. Then as soon as they audience a relaxed with music, and exposed to young people with alcohol and sex, as there Is a short fade to black the transformation comes again, there is a ominous silence with a low score. There is they a scream a pale face in the dark, this informs the audience that something bad is happening, the pace gradually picks up, and the tempo of the trailer get faster and faster, and there are more screams and vision deaths. I believe the film was edited like this in order to deliver the story to the audience, as a before and after, showing the effect the “killers” have on the characters.

Representation: Poster T he poster is very unique, there is not much writing but there Is such and interesting long shot image that makes up for it, the image is Based directly in the middle, the image breaks the forth wall as it Directs it attention at the audience. You would expect the masthead To be directly on top of the main image, however in this Poster is placed at the bottom, with a red font colour, this helps it to Stand out from the wholes image. “Welcome to Crystal lake” the tag line acts as a mirror of what the antagonist in the main image is saying to the audience, this makes the audience film involved, as they are “welcome to crystal lake”. There is a knife in the antagonist this tells the audience the film is violent an that the antonymous is the bad one, the fact that he has a mask on his face builds a interest to his character, as the audience wants to find out who he is. there is a use of red writing on the masthead to illustrate that the film is a slasher, where a lot of blood is present

Representation: Magazine Cover This magazine is fairly interesting, the masthead uses the head of the main image to fill in the “o” in “Fangoria” this shows the creative though that went into the magazine, when looking a the magazine, the image is positioned as if its a hangman. There is a full image of the character, the audience get to see the character in Dept, unlike the poster its out of the dark, a shown with studio lights, making the image stand out, again there is a use of red writing on the masthead to illustrate that the film is a slasher, where a lot of blood is present
