Overall, which thriller opening was your favourite and why?

Seven- because it had good editing

Immersed-because it looked like it has a cool story

Rhapsody of the moth-great editing techniques

I would like to include similar editing techniques from rhapsody of the moth as there were positive responses. Also I like the idea of some shots being upside down

shoot schedule

This is our timetable of when we went out to film. On Wednesday we managed to get a few shots done. We got more done on Thursday as we had more time.

things that inspire me

This shot from The 1975's music video robbers inspired us to make our blood hand shot. I like the effect of the shot and the contrast of the white and red so we decided to make something similar.

This was our shot. We were pleased with the outcome as we believe it is an effective shot.

We also got inspiration from Macbeth where she tries to wash the blood off her hands. This shows guilt and symbolises murder.

W listened to the jaws theme tune and really liked how the simple low frequency notes helped build a massive amount of tension and how it keeps the audience on edge. Me and Rhiana have added some low frequency piano notes into our music to build the tension right from the beginning.

props/costumes

costume
The costume is important as the audience will judge the character as soon as they see them. We hope when the audience sees our character they will see that she is young and innocent. She will be dressed as a student.
doc marten boots

These boots are for our second character. We want them to seem masculine and a threat.
black jeans

The jeans show that the person is serious and practical.
 short doc martens
 
These look like school shoes which can suggest that the character is young.
black tights

The tights could suggest that the girl is uncomfortable.

checked skirt














This skirt can also suggest that the character is still in school.

turquoise shirt



















Turquoise isn't usually associated with bad things so it is a contrast as this is the colour the victim is wearing.

green jumper

The jumper represents that it is cold outside.

navy blue blazer

The blazer shows that the girl is possibly in education or work.

props
bin bag

This bag represents the unknown and that what is in the bag is hidden.
fake blood



 The fake blood represents danger and could foreshadow the rest of the opening.
