The document discusses conventions for openings in thriller films. It states that thriller openings aim to entice viewers to continue watching by establishing the genre, setting up main characters and landscape, and conveying the overall tone. Common techniques include panning shots, narration, title sequences, and flashforwards or flashbacks. Most thriller openings depict either a seemingly normal situation that has something "off" or an abnormal situation. They blend into the overall plot of the film so it's hard to determine their exact length.

Freytags pyramid
Freytag's Pyramid is a model for plotting a story structure. It consists of seven stages: exposition introduces characters and setting, the inciting moment sets the rising action in motion, rising action builds conflict, the climax is the turning point, falling action follows the climax, resolution solves the conflict, and denouement ties up loose ends. Freytag's Pyramid is widely used to analyze story structure in drama and other forms of fiction.
Plot and its parts
The document discusses the key elements of plot, including exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution. It explains that the plot is the sequence of arranged events in a story that has a beginning, middle, and end. It also defines the main parts of a plot as the exposition where the characters and setting are revealed, the rising action where complications and conflict emerge, the climax as the turning point, the falling action where events start to resolve, and the resolution where all conflicts are ultimately resolved and the story concludes.
Types of shots
An extreme close-up magnifies an object beyond what the human eye can see in reality, showing only a small detail like a person's mouth or eyes with no background. This very artificial shot requires careful lighting and setup to avoid noticeable errors. A close-up shot focuses on an object to blur the background and involve the audience. A medium shot contains a person from the knees up and is used for dialogue or showing some action. Background detail is minimal since the location was established earlier.
Plot Structure
The document outlines the typical structure of plot in stories, including exposition to introduce characters and setting, conflict as a problem arises, rising action as more problems develop, climax as the peak of conflict, falling action showing the results, resolution concluding the story, and sometimes a denouement with final events. It explains that plot is the order of narrative events, and these stages are generally where the reader is introduced to crucial information about the story.
Thriller conventions
Thrillers often use an enigma narrative structure where fragments of the story are presented out of order, leaving the audience to piece together what is happening along with the protagonist. Opening scenes aim to establish characters, particularly villains, and trigger mysterious events without revealing full details to generate intrigue. Technical elements like lighting, shots, and editing are employed to build tension and hide information while hinting at impending danger or violence through techniques like slow pans and abrupt cuts.
Freytag’s pyramid
Freytag's Pyramid is a model used to analyze plot structure. It consists of five parts: exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution. The exposition introduces characters and setting with little conflict. The rising action includes initial conflicts that build toward the climax, which is the turning point where the outcome is determined. Any subsequent action after the climax is falling action. The resolution ties up loose ends and concludes the story.
Types of shots
This document defines and describes various types of camera shots including extreme close-up, close-up, medium shot, long shot, wide shot, extreme long shot, high angle, low angle, slanted angle, eye level, aerial shot, two shot, over the shoulder, point of view, and oblique/cant angle shots. Extreme close-ups focus on small details like eyes or mouths. Close-ups show objects in detail or involve the audience. Medium shots are used for dialogue and interaction. Long shots provide background context while wide shots establish scenes. High and low angles make subjects appear smaller or larger, while slanted, eye level, and point of view shots provide different perspectives. Aerial shots provide overhead views
Freytag's Pyramid
Plot structure describes the arrangement of events in a story. Freytag's Pyramid models plot with five parts: exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution. The climax is the turning point of highest tension. Rising action involves conflicts that build to the climax, while falling action occurs after as a result. Modified Freytag's Pyramid extends before and after the primary rising and falling action. Key plot components include the inciting incident that begins the action, and the dénouement that concludes any remaining questions.

Shots and angles in horror films
This document discusses various camera shots and angles that are commonly used in horror films to build tension and manipulate the audience's perspective. Some of the techniques described include high angle shots to make characters seem vulnerable, close-ups to show reactions, tracking shots that imply movement or being followed, tilted angles that create dramatic tension, and point-of-view shots that put the audience in the place of the character. Overall, the document provides an overview of different cinematography techniques employed in horror movies to scare or unsettle viewers.
Camera Shot Types
This shot is a close-up of a subject's face, taking up most of the frame. The subject is looking slightly off-center, implying they are looking at something not yet revealed to the audience. Close-ups effectively convey a character's emotions; in this shot the subject's expression is forlorn and stony, indicating the feelings they are experiencing and allowing the audience to feel connected to the character. The background is blurred with a shallow depth of field to focus on the subject's face, drawing the audience's attention and making the character seem enigmatic in order to intrigue the audience.
Thriller conventions
Thriller films rely on suspense and anticipation to keep audiences engaged as the protagonist faces tensions that build to a stressful climax. There are six subgenres of thriller including action, crime, and psychological thrillers. Specific conventions include quick cuts, tense music, shadows, and changes in camera angles to generate suspense. Cinematography employs close-ups on protagonists to show emotions while hiding antagonists' identities through quick cuts and silhouettes. Editing uses jump cuts and cross-cutting to build suspense, and montages or flashbacks add confusion. Sound design incorporates tense music and diegetic effects to immerse audiences in characters' experiences. Mise-en-scene establishes themes through locations, costumes,

Similar to Conventions of a Thriller Movie Opening
Thriller conventions 1
Thriller openings often establish the main character, usually the villain, and hint at their personal traits or role. A triggering event occurs that launches a series of mysterious subsequent events, without fully revealing details to induce intrigue. Technical features like lighting, shots, and editing are used to depict seemingly normal situations and build tension without giving away the full plot. Enigma codes that slowly reveal clues throughout also engage audiences in piecing together the narrative.
Thriller convention presentation
Thriller films often follow certain conventions in their openings. The openings may establish the protagonist and their role or a key aspect of the plot like a police investigation. While the opening events are not the main event, they are used to intrigue audiences and trigger a series of events. An air of mystery is usually portrayed through withholding key details from audiences. Technical elements like long shots, lighting, and editing are also used strategically in openings to set the scene without revealing crucial information.
Film openings AS Media
Film openings are used to introduce the main characters, set the scene, and reveal the genre. Most openings include opening credits and identifying the producer and director. However, some directors prefer unconventional openings to add mystery or artistic style by leaving out credits or not immediately introducing characters. Common types of openings include title sequences, flashbacks, establishing shots, flash-forwards, photograph compilations, close-ups of props, or narration over visuals.

There are four main types: title on a blank screen, title on a still image, title over a moving image, and title through animation. The group's favorite is the title over a moving image as it tells a story and gives audiences context without being as complex as animation. An example Resident Evil opening is praised for using imagery, music and camerawork to efficiently set the dark, creepy atmosphere and imply a mysterious global infection.

Thrillers tell stories of protagonists battling antagonists through suspense and excitement. They often involve plot twists and non-stop action. A psychological thriller was chosen as the sub-genre. Characteristics include jump cuts, camera angles, music to build tension, shadows, and montage editing. Thrillers are usually set in ordinary cities and suburbs and involve a protagonist restoring order against a secretly vengeful antagonist. Effective thrillers build tension through a chain of bad events culminating in a climactic resolution of justice.

David Bordwell is a successful film theorist and historian who earned his PhD from the University of Iowa in 1974. He has written over 15 volumes on cinema, notably collaborating with his wife Christine Thompson on books about film art and history. A narrative structure in film traditionally has a beginning, middle, and end, though some films challenge this by placing events out of order, like Pulp Fiction. Plots can be linear, running chronologically from start to finish, or nonlinear, unfolding events in a non-chronological sequence to increase intrigue.
Media pitch powerpoint

Both films would target teenagers and young adults and be distributed on YouTube or film festivals. Sample music and draft materials are provided.
Technical trailer elements for thrillers
Thrillers commonly use certain techniques in their trailers to build suspense and tension. Costumes are used to provide insights into the characters' personalities and roles. Settings are normally everyday environments that are disturbed by the antagonist. Props and lighting create dark and ominous atmospheres. Sound effects like screaming increase anxiety, while voiceovers directly address the audience. A variety of shots like canted angles, close-ups, and two-shots are used to demonstrate changes in situations and highlight emotions, surroundings, and relationships between characters. Editing techniques like reaction shots and abrupt cuts keep the audience engaged as the narrative unfolds.
Conventions of short films
A short film is defined as a movie with a duration that makes it distinct from a feature-length film. Short films typically only include 2-3 characters to allow for their quick establishment and understanding by the audience. Character theories, such as Goffman's, categorize characters into protagonist, secondary character, minor character, and comedic character roles. Most short films also contain a plot twist to make the story more interesting. Short films usually have low budgets, so they keep costs minimal through limited characters, locations, and sometimes unpaid acting. An engaging storyline can be developed even in an ordinary setting. Narrative theories, like Tzvetan Todorov's concept of equilibrium, conflict, and resolution, are also applicable
Technical elements

This document discusses various shot types including close-ups, two-shots, canted angles, and wide shots that were used in the film Inception. Close-ups emphasize emotions, two-shots establish relationships, canted angles signify distress, and wide shots show the surrounding context.

Conventions of an opening sequence
Conventions of an opening sequence discusses several common techniques used in film and television openings to engage audiences. These include using flashbacks to provide backstory, establishing shots to set the scene, and narration or action sequences to quickly inform viewers about key characters and events. Production logos and title sequences are also employed to identify the film and preview main actors. The purpose is to attract and keep the audience watching by providing context and clues about the genre.
Mise en-scene
Mise-en-scene refers to everything within the frame of a film, including the positioning of actors, scenery, props, lighting, costumes, and background settings. The settings and props are particularly important as they establish the environment, time period, and story. Lighting also influences the mood, with high key lighting used in lighter genres and low key lighting used in darker genres like horror. Costumes, hair, makeup, facial expressions and body language provide cues to audiences about characters' personalities, relationships, and emotions. Positioning within the frame draws attention to important characters or objects and can indicate relationships.
Sophia micro elements

Prominent props like a bloody photo, bullet, and glasses provide clues about the theme of death and revenge without revealing too much. These micro elements effectively orient viewers and encourage them to continue watching to understand the story.
