1. The antagonist looking straight at the camera
and is challenging the audience.
Impression of what can you do to
the audience?
Dark setting a typical
convention of thrillers.
A male is the
‘villain’ which is
another convention
of thrillers.
The male looks scary,
dominate and threating.

2. Showing the girls as victims –
typical conventions of thrillers.
Manipulating the girls showing how
‘helpless’ they are – No Power.
Female looks
vulnerable, typical
of thrillers.
Another high angle used
making the girl look small
and innocent.

3. Over the shoulder, high angle makes the male look even
more dominate in this frame with him looking down at the
girls. The high angle also makes them look small and
unimportant.
Dark lighting makes the whole situation
“scary” obviously typical of a thriller with
dark settings.

4. Dark lighting which suggests the
antagonist is in touch with his
dark side.
Low lighting doesn’t give
much away and typical of
thriller genres.
Leaves audiences imagination
high active.
Keeping the audience
engaged and “edge of the
seat” feeling.

5. The male antagonists is picking wax off his finger nails –
representing him and dirty and unclean which is typical
for most males represented in thrillers.
There’s also dirty
bandages with blood
and mud stains
adding to the effect
of him being dirty.
