This media blog post will analyze four thriller movie openings and three thriller frames to get inspiration for the author's own opening. It will also introduce genre and sub-genres of thrillers, the intended audience, and define cinematography.
This document provides an overview of argumentation and how to analyze arguments. It discusses the different types of persuasive and informative arguments found in editorials, essays, articles, and studies. It also outlines how to map arguments by identifying the issue, author's point of view, and supporting arguments. Additionally, it explains how to evaluate arguments by determining whether information presented is a fact or opinion, and assessing the type of support used. The document concludes by providing an example of mapping an argument in a newspaper article and evaluating the trustworthiness of the supporting points.
The document discusses four thriller sub-genres: action, psychological, crime, and horror. Action thrillers focus on physical action and stunts to create suspense. Psychological thrillers deal with mental and emotional problems and situations characters struggle to escape. Crime thrillers involve violence to build anxiety around a criminal's plans and motives. Horror thrillers feature mentally ill killers who aim to play with audiences' emotions by instilling fear and terror. While the sub-genres are similar in combining suspense, their key differences lie in their specific focuses on action, psychology, crime, or horror.
This mid shot shows a woman reaching out for help in apparent difficulty. She looks frightened with her mouth open while naked and showering, suggesting she was unprepared. Her reaching hand is meant to create sympathy from the audience as it seems she is about to be killed.
Eric's costume for the opening scene should be in black to convey his dark side and struggles in that moment of weakness. The other characters' costumes should be simple and normal. The theme is to show the dark side of someone like Eric who is struggling in the moment.
The document outlines a filming shot sequence, beginning with an establishing shot from a building showing the filming location for 5 seconds. It then describes zooming into a CCTV camera for 4 seconds before cutting to a 2 second black TV effect. Further shots include overhead angles of a character walking for 5 seconds, interspersed with 2 second black TV effects, and a close up of the character's back for 4 seconds as they walk. The sequence is left unfinished.

A female character appears to be asking for help in a mid-shot frame. She stretches out her hand toward the audience, intending to make them feel sympathetic since she appears close to death. Her distressed appearance is meant to trouble the audience by suggesting that if even an attractive person is not safe, then no one is. This creates suspense by implying other characters may die as well. The dark background adds an element of mystery, as the female is the only thing lit. She may either be saved by the light or absorbed by the surrounding darkness, continuing the thriller trope of endangering female characters. In a second image, half the face of another female is shown as she directly stares at the camera, appearing
This document provides an overview of the topics that will be covered in a blog about the thriller genre including an introduction to thrillers, the target audience, analyzing frames from three thriller films, and examining the opening and cinematography of a thriller film.
The document describes an outfit chosen for a main character to wear that represents how a typical London teenager dresses. It discusses selecting clothing for a character that fits within the style and fashion of teenagers in London. The outfit choice was made to portray a realistic and accurate depiction of dress for teenagers in that location.
This document discusses how the concept of "Britishness" is represented in films produced by Working Title from the 1980s to 2000s. It analyzes how their films portrayed Britishness through representations of minorities in the 1980s, exporting an image of Britishness through romantic comedies in the 1990s, and portraying heritage and history in period films of the 2000s. Specific films like My Beautiful Laundrette, Notting Hill, Four Weddings and a Funeral, Atonement, and Hot Fuzz are examined in terms of how they portrayed British identity, values, class, location, and history in relation to the social and political contexts of their eras.
Synergy refers to different entities working together advantageously, where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Media companies exploit various platforms like film, soundtracks, video games, and merchandise based on one property to increase profits. Vivendi Universal, which owns Working Title Films, benefits from synergy across its subsidiaries in film production, distribution, television, music, and other areas to promote its content on multiple platforms.
Here is a 5 sentence paragraph using terminology from the document:
Large companies like Sony benefit more from synergy and cross media convergence than smaller companies due to their size and being conglomerates. As a conglomerate, Sony owns subsidiaries across different media like film studios, record labels, and electronics manufacturers. This allows Sony to leverage synergies between these divisions to promote linked products from its movies, soundtracks, and electronics. Smaller independent companies like those behind Ill Manors lack this vertical integration and diversity of ownership, limiting their ability to coordinate synergistic campaigns. The uneven playing field advantages conglomerates that can utilize their portfolio of companies to maximize profits through cross-promotional opportunities not available to smaller firms.
There are two types of audiences: active audiences and passive audiences. An active audience actively engages with content by interpreting it based on their own experiences and background, rather than easily accepting the message. A passive audience passively accepts the content without questioning it or engaging critically.
Sevval is a busy 19-year old woman who balances two jobs. She discovers that food has been taken from her fridge and her bed made, indicating an intruder has been in her home. Later, she finds a homeless man named Ali hiding in her cupboard. Though initially frightened, she decides to hear his story. Ali explains that he is homeless. Sevval allows Ali to stay in her downstairs bedroom in exchange for him helping clean up after her hectic lifestyle. Over time, a friendship forms between them.
The document summarizes a day in the life of a woman named Sevval. It describes her morning routine of waking up, getting ready, and making a sandwich for breakfast. However, she realizes she is running late for work. When she comes home, she finds her bed made and becomes worried that someone had been in her house. She installs a CCTV system and discovers footage of a homeless man entering her home, eating the rest of her food and cleaning her kitchen. When she finds him in her cupboard, he begs her to listen to his story and they come to an agreement.
This document outlines a 53-shot storyboard for a short film. It begins with establishing shots of a woman waking up late and rushing to get ready. She notices her room has been tidied. Later, while reviewing security camera footage, she discovers a boy living in her apartment who has been cleaning for her. They have a tense encounter but eventually sit down to talk, where he promises to explain his presence and how he knows her preferences. The storyboard ends teasing a time jump of three months later.
The plot follows an older girl who sees a younger girl crying while writing in her diary at a park bench. When the older girl tries to comfort her, the younger girl runs off and leaves her diary behind. Intrigued, the older girl reads the diary and discovers the younger girl is being bullied at school. Over several months, the older girl searches for the younger girl by her bracelet but is unable to find her. The character profiles describe the younger girl dressing casually with a backpack and the older girl dressing more sophisticatedly to show their age difference. Key locations include the park bench, the younger girl's bedroom, and street scenes on Oxford Street.
While all thriller sub-genres are similar in some ways, each focuses on something specific. Comedy thrillers combine suspense and humor, action thrillers focus on suspense, adrenaline and tension with fear, and psychological thrillers center around characters battling their own minds based on plot details from their lives, whereas action thrillers emphasize violence and the feeling that danger is imminent.
The document lists examples of movies in different thriller subgenres: action thrillers include The Dark Knight and Heat; comedy thrillers include Charade and Silver Streak; crime thrillers include Se7en and Pulp Fiction; drama thrillers include Seven and Black Swan; horror thrillers include 31 and Sinister; and psychological thrillers include Fight Club and Oldboy. The document organizes popular thriller films by subgenre for reference.
Action thrillers use physical action and stunts to create suspense and tension. Plots often involve guns or weapons and keep the audience feeling danger and on the edge of their seats. Psychological thrillers focus on mental and emotional tension between characters and situations that are difficult to escape. Crime thrillers involve violence to build anxiety about what will happen next and focus on a criminal's plans and motivations. Horror thrillers feature a mentally ill killer who aims to play with audiences' emotions by instilling fear and terror through a frightening atmosphere.
