Thriller Idea No.1
Here is my
feedback:
Response:
I would, try to
expand the sequence by adding another element before or after. For example, her
daily routine: brushing her teeth, drinking coffee; going to work. That could then
lead to the scene where she is sitting on the sofa. Or I could add a section
after showing the killer interacting with the victim. I need to add another
element in the opening sequence to make it interesting and engaging. I would
like to show the killer’s interaction with the victim, and perhaps use P.O.V or
interesting camera angles to give a distorted and uncomfortable feel to the
situation. From the classes feedback, I’ll try and explore the killer’s normal
everyday side and her dark and evil side in order to create an interesting and
original thriller sequence. In short, I need to add to my opening sequence idea
in order for it to maintain a tense and interesting tone across the two
minutes.
Thriller Idea No.2
Here is my
feedback:
Response:
I need to add more
conventions of the thriller genre from the start in order to make it more clear
that it is a thriller. I could do this with the use of non-diegetic sound such
as an eerie soundtrack or using diegetic sounds e.g. kettle whistling, to
create tension. In my original idea I tried to condense an entire film in to
the two minutes; the opening was very detailed and showed their relationship
becoming murderous; this doesn’t leave any more space for the film develop.
Therefore, I should keep my opening sequence simpler and dilute the amount of
information I give the audience. I should show the dysfunctionality of the
couple as an element to the film rather than the central focus, It would make
the narrative more interesting. I could alter the opening sequence, to show
that they are a normal couple and the man is talking to his wife, not realising
that she is dead the entire time. This would create tension and shock and would
allow for the story to develop from there. After taking the feedback into
consideration I could: simplify the opening sequence and add more thriller
conventions to make the genre more evident.
