The document discusses the process of creating a two minute opening scene for a psychological thriller film. It outlines some typical conventions for the genre including a main character with a mental illness, mind games, a sense of danger and isolation, and dark settings. The student incorporated some of these conventions like a character with a mental illness and a sense of isolation. The opening scene builds tension and establishes characters and themes without revealing too much of the plot, conforming to typical conventions. It subverts one convention by portraying the female character as strong rather than weak.
5. how did you attract address your audience
Films like Super 8 attracted younger teenage audiences by advertising on Facebook and children's channels like Nickelodeon and Disney. To attract their target audience, the filmmakers created Facebook and Twitter pages to engage fans in discussions and provide updates on the thriller film. They chose piano music for the opening scene to build tension and mystery, as piano suited the thriller genre better than rock music, which is more for action movies.
Masculinity
The document discusses representations of masculinity in media. It notes that masculinity is typically portrayed through strength, power, attractiveness, physique, and independence. Additionally, media representations of masculinity have become more focused on men's physiques in recent decades. This increased focus has made it difficult for men to live up to unrealistic ideals portrayed in media, just as it has long been difficult for women. As a result, men are encouraged to aspire to look like media role models, but some grow concerned about an inability to achieve such standards, while others worry about perceived anti-male bias.
Feminism
The document discusses representations of women in media. It notes that while feminism has brought significant changes to women's roles over 40+ years, media representations remain largely the same. Women are predominantly portrayed based on narrow standards of beauty, size, and sexuality and tend to be emotional and focused on relationships rather than independence. They often take passive, helper roles in dramas and are victims more than active characters. Men are represented 3 times more in TV dramas and tend to be the focus of news stories. Stereotypical portrayals that conform to societal expectations are more common, and non-conforming characters are seen as deviant and face consequences.
Psycho part 2
The document discusses representations of crime in psychological thriller films. It notes that in Psycho, criminals are ultimately punished for their crimes with Norman Bates being arrested. Even though the focus is on Marion Crane, she is still punished for her crime by being killed. In Seven, the focus is more on the law enforcers but it also juxtaposes the law enforcer and breaker by highlighting the similarities between John Doe and Lieutenant Somerset. Unlike in Psycho, in Seven the criminal wins in the end and those who are killed seem to deserve it, with there being no true "good" conclusion as the "bad" guy triumphs in the end.
Psycho part 3
Seven features a varied racial representation with the main characters of Detective Somerset, played by Morgan Freeman, and Detective Mills, played by Brad Pitt. The film juxtaposes the black and white detectives as they work together to track down a serial killer who uses the seven deadly sins as their motives. Overall, the film's racial representation is seen as more realistic and correct compared to other psychological thrillers of the time period.
Psycho gender
This document discusses representations of gender in psychological thriller films. It analyzes the character of Marion Crane in Psycho, describing her as a flawed but strong female character that deviates from the typical "femme fatale" archetype. The document also discusses the male gaze in Psycho and the lack of significant female characters in Seven. It provides examples of how Jodie Foster's character in Silence of the Lambs and Helen Mirren's character in Prime Suspect take on traditionally male roles. The document also analyzes the contrasting characters of Somerset and Mills in Se7en and how Norman Bates is a complex character in Psycho shown through lighting techniques.
10 low budget thrillers
The document discusses several independent and low-budget films from the 1980s to early 2000s that were critical and commercial successes, focusing on how talented directors were able to achieve a lot with limited resources.
