Thrillers originated from ancient epic poems that used similar narrative techniques to modern thrillers. Alfred Hitchcock directed some of the earliest thriller films in the 1920s-1930s. Popular thriller film companies include Hammer Film Productions and Warner Bros, while directors like Hitchcock, Nolan, Spielberg, and Scorsese regularly make thrillers. The genre focuses on suspense, danger, and building tension to a climactic ending, exemplified in films like The Silence of the Lambs, North By Northwest, and The Great Escape. Thrillers often use plot twists and cliffhangers, and subgenres include action, comedy, crime, horror, psychological, and spy thrillers.
Thriller title sequences typically use dark, eerie lighting and imagery to set the ominous tone for the rest of the film. They represent the film's narrative through cryptic or unsettling visuals that hint at the story's themes without giving away plot details. Overall, thriller openings aim to build mystery and suspense right from the start through disturbing or unexplained visual elements.
This document discusses various theories of narrative analysis that can be applied to different media. It defines narrative as a chain of causally linked events with a beginning, middle, and end. Narrative theory analyzes how media texts communicate events. Several theorists are discussed, including Propp, who identified common character archetypes in folk stories, and Todorov, who proposed a 5-stage model of narrative structure. Other theorists mentioned are Barthes, Levi-Strauss, and Cameron. The document also discusses postmodern narratives and how narrative analysis considers elements like editing and sound to create meaning for audiences.

The skills gap exists due to several converging factors:
- The changing nature of work and pace of innovation require continuous reskilling and upskilling of workers. Jobs are becoming more technologically advanced and specialized.
- The knowledge economy demands higher levels of STEM skills that are lacking in many current and potential workers. Digital skills are increasingly necessary across many industries.
- Rapid changes in business strategies, markets, and technologies outpace the abilities of many organizations to reskill their existing workforces or find new talent with the needed skills.
- Multiple generations now coexist in the workforce with different skills, and retiring baby boomers will take decades of experience and knowledge with them unless it is properly transferred.

This shot list outlines 63 shots for a music video taking place in New York City. It begins with establishing shots in an alleyway in Ringwood and then follows the protagonist as he walks through Times Square, a nightclub, and atop the Empire State Building, observing the sights. The list then cuts to the protagonist witnessing a shooting in another alleyway and seemingly being shot himself. After fading to white, the shots pick back up with the protagonist waking atop a building with views of the skyline. The video then loops back to the beginning alleyway, with the protagonist looking confused about what happened before walking away.
Rory Giddings was cast as the protagonist due to his mature look and acting experience. Ross Cogdell was cast as the gunman because he is a media student who can assist with filming, and the director envisions the gunman as emotionless. The director cast himself in the small role of gun victim to avoid risks to others and save time.
The protagonist will wear a grey hoodie throughout to reflect his initial misery. The gunman will wear a suit to seem inconspicuous and pull his gun from his coat. Printed signs, a movie poster, a briefcase, and a gun will be used as props to further the story.
