Created Media Components (P4)

The following is the first trailer for Umbra Hominis. It is short in the hopes that people won't skip it, but that it will give them enough information for them to want to learn more about it.

The following are the two Spotify adverts that we have created. The aim of them is to show how distressed the main character is and to show the progression of their psychosis by making them sound more and more desperate for help.

These adverts would be run with a 4 month gap between them. This is because a gap of 4 months is a reasonable time-frame for somebody who has run out of medication to progress to the point where they are desperate for any help at all.

Due to the adverts being on Spotify they would be unskippable and would only play for people who don't use the premium version. This means that we will be doing general advertising to a large range of people as their is no way of knowing if people are interested in horror movies or not.



We have limited funding, meaning that we can't spend a huge amount of money on our advertising. We will be releasing our movie worldwide on streaming services but it's still undecided as to the locations that we will be paying to run this advert in.








The following are the Reddit posts that we would post on r/nosleep 

My life is starting to fall apart, and I don’t know what to do

I really need your help with this.

I’ve been prescribed antipsychotics for the past 10 years of my life; since I was 7. That’s when this all started. While I was on them life was great, I had friends, I was doing well at school. That’s all changing now.

Last week I went to go and collect my latest prescription and was told that they no longer produce the specific type of antipsychotic that I take. Normally this wouldn’t be a problem, but I’m allergic to most of the common ingredients in other antipsychotics. I can only take the medication that has aripiprazole or ziprasidone as the active ingredient, anything else causes me to suffer from the symptoms of my mental illness; paranoid schizophrenia and psychosis.

They say that they won’t be able to get any medication with those ingredients in it for at least 6 months. I can’t make my remaining pills last that long. I have a month of pills left, maybe more if I take half of the amount that I’m supposed to.

If I don’t get more soon, I’m afraid that my mental health will deteriorate, and I will lose all the things that I’ve worked hard on since my condition stabilised. I’ll lose all my friends, I’ll have to skip school. I have exams coming up that I need to revise for if I want to get into my chosen university. This situation may mean that my life as I know it will come to an end.

I don’t know what to do and I’m terrified that this could have an effect my entire adult life.

I’m running out of medication and things are starting to happen to me

I tried halving the number of drugs that I take, but I started to see things that weren’t there… shadowy figures at the edge of my vision.

 I started to take the prescribed amount again, and now I’m running out… I only have a week of pills left and I still can’t get more. I’m worried that the things that I started to see will get worse. My friends noticed that there is something wrong with me, but I managed to convince them that I was just feeling a little bit ill. I don’t want them to find out and treat me differently.

Luckily, I’m ahead on my school work so I won’t fall behind on it too quickly, if I can’t get any more pills soon then I’ll start to fall behind and then people will begin to see what I’ve been hiding for years. If that happens, then it will change my life forever. I just want it to be as normal as possible.

Please, I need help...

What should I do? Where can I get more medication? Why is this happening to me? What will happen if everybody finds out?

Please…please…please…
