The document discusses how a music video project uses camera techniques like different angles and dissolves to develop the storyline and convey meaning. Low angles are used to show one character's dominance over another shown from a high angle in an argument scene. An over-the-shoulder shot establishes who is writing a suicide note. Shadows and overlays are used symbolically. Cross dissolves allow the editing to flow with the slow music. Comparisons are made to real music products like magazines, albums, and digipaks in terms of typical layouts and elements included.

Six thriller openings
The document discusses conventions, titles/timings, mise-en-scene, sound, and camera techniques used in horror and thriller movies. It provides examples of how these elements set the tone and build suspense, such as using string instruments and dark colors in the score, having the male character wear dark clothing, showing clocks at night to suggest mystery, and employing jump cuts and zooms between characters and locations. The document analyzes how these techniques are employed in the openings of movies to immerse viewers and establish the psychological nature of the films.
Film title analysis
The document describes the title sequences and graphics of various horror films. It analyzes elements like font styles, lettering effects, color palettes and background images used to set sinister, bloody, and eerie atmospheres that match the horror genres and themes of the films. Elements like dripping letters, faded edges, and contrasts between light and dark or red and black are used to convey a sense of danger, mystery, and death. Religious symbols, forest settings, and vague fading images in the backgrounds further enhance the horror tones.
Crash. katy.
The opening titles of Crash are purposefully confusing to draw in the audience. Unclear images and patterns against a dark background create an ominous atmosphere. Slow, soft background music plays as unknown voices are heard. Close-ups of characters' faces are shown without context to further intrigue viewers about the situation. The distorted images and voices continue in order to engage the audience in figuring out what has occurred.
Video analysis killers
The video shows the band The Killers performing their song "Mr. Brightside" on stage. It is filmed in black and white and captures close-up shots of the band members singing and playing their instruments. Interspersed are shots of a woman (presumably the subject of the song lyrics) from old film footage. The lead singer appears distraught and vulnerable as he sings, looking off into the distance. The simple performance-based video aims to portray the band and the song's emotions in a mature yet heartfelt manner.
Real media research
The document analyzes the opening sequences of 5 thriller films - The Dark Knight Rises, Memento, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Se7en, and an unnamed film - to identify conventions used in thriller openings. It finds that thriller openings often use dark colors and lighting, ominous music, vague hints about the plot or characters to build tension and mystery, and stereotypical protagonists to set expectations for the genre. They aim to prepare audiences for danger and elicit feelings of fear, suspense and uncertainty through visual and audio techniques without revealing too much of the story.

Q1 conventions in my thriller
The document analyzes and compares the filmmaking techniques used in the student's thriller film and professional thrillers like Casino Royale. It discusses the use of close-up, mid, and long shots to show emotion and set the scene. Flashbacks were used to provide context and build tension. Care was taken to select royalty-free music to match the visuals. Shots were shortened during editing to keep the pace fast. Costumes and props like knives were chosen to symbolize victims and torturers. Limited lighting was used to create atmosphere and mystery around the torturer. Still shots from both films demonstrate their similar use of props, characters, and lighting to develop suspense.

- 3. In order to convey the power that Jack has over Claire in this argument scene, we used different camera angles. Jack is shot from a low angle, which means that he dominates the camera, and in turn Claire and the audience… …Whilst Claire is shot from a high angle, which shows her helplessness.
- 4. For our note writing scene, we made sure that we had an over-the-shoulder shot to establish who was actually writing it. We immediately followed this up by a close up of the note, where the audience can see about half of each of the 2 sentences, but it is clear what the note is intended for: a suicide note. We used the same camera shot for this computer scene, where Claire is reading through the abusive messages on Facebook.
- 5. The shadow we created on a white wall of Claire picking petals of a rose was used as we thought that this shot would be very symbolic. It is as if she is a ‘shadow of her former self’ and shows her isolation. The colours reflect her mood: grey and black = gloomy and troubled. We used an overlay in this shot as we found that it really shows the 2 sides of Claire in the video: dead and alive. We picked these 3 shots as neither were in colour and it almost looks as if the dead Claire is remembering how miserable her life was when she was alive and being bullied.
- 6. The use of cross dissolves was very important to the construction of our music video, as it enabled us make the editing flow with the pace of the slow music. If we had used cuts the video would seem very jumpy and would ruin the effectiveness and poignancy of the storyline. I think that the shot to the left is a very good example of a cross dissolve working very well. It fades from Claire’s dead face into Jack looking distressed and upset. This still shot I have captured reflects exactly how Jack is feeling: as if Claire lames him for her death and is watching over him, always there in his mind.
