In a few trailers the
setting is sometimes
night or dawn and in
abandoned areas
leaving the sense of
isolation
The lighting
is sometimes
dark to make
the scene
scary.
Shadows are
used to
represent
the darkest.
In these thriller films camera
angles constantly change
and to make it more tense
thriller film tends to cut shot
constantly as well.
Characters below
which are
teenagers are
hardly used in
thrillers because
Adults are.
The more
faster the
editing
becomes the
more
suspence it
will built and
could have
the audience
on there
seat.
