For Psycho, it describes the unsettling camera movements and sounds that create tension and suggest secrets. For Gone Girl, it explains how a tender moment is undercut by disturbing language to make the character seem untrustworthy. For Black Swan, it analyzes the cinematography, editing, sound, and mise-en-scene that establish themes of isolation and corruption through the protagonist's dance.

IDEAS FOR USE OF SOUND
The document discusses using sound in a trailer for a horror film called The Human Carvery. It explains that non-diegetic sound like music can be used to add suspense, tension, and scare audiences. The group plans to use slow then menacing music when the butcher appears, no music during murders to build suspense, and fast-paced music during chase scenes. An analysis of the film Scream shows it uses phone call music to build tension, stops music briefly for chilling lines, and mixes hacking/banging noises with eerie music for the scariest parts of the trailer.
Question 1
This document discusses how the media product of a student film thriller draws from and challenges conventions of the thriller genre. It summarizes the individual research members conducted on the thriller film "Taken", analyzing its camera work, editing, sound, and mise-en-scene. Though the student film uses elements like a flashback and non-diegetic music similarly to "Taken", it develops these conventions with different contextual uses that challenge thriller genre expectations. Specifically, the music in the student film conveys sadness rather than impending danger, and the film portrays hitmen as emotionally complex humans rather than "heartless".

Film opening analysis black swan
The opening scene of Black Swan establishes the psychological horror genre. It introduces the main character Nina, a ballerina dancing gracefully on stage in a white costume. As she dances with a male partner who takes on a dark role, the camera uses close-ups and movement to follow her intricate footwork. Strange unnatural sounds are added to create tension. The scene sets up the film's exploration of Nina's pursuit to play both the innocent White Swan and the sensual Black Swan in Swan Lake.

Question 1
- 3. USE OF NARRATIVE Analysis of my Thriller ‘The Last Dance’ Evidence from my Thriller ‘The Last Dance’ Comparison to an existing Thriller product My film is a psychological thriller that is about a dancer who is rehearsing for her upcoming competition. As she is rehearsing, strange things begin to happen, suggesting that there is a sabotage on the case. Throughout the opening sequence of my thriller film ‘The Last Dance’, in the titles we have used an image that is being drawn of the dancer with charcoal. This image is used to portray a very sinister feel to our thriller. As the pace of the music changes, so does the pressure put on the charcoal. This drawing is taken from the thriller film ‘The Black Swan’. This is where we got the inspiration and ideas of drawing the dancer during the opening titles.
- 4. USE OF NARRATIVE Analysis of my Thriller ‘The Last Dance’ Evidence from my Thriller ‘The Last Dance’ Within the narrative of our psychological thriller we have followed a range of narrative theories. We have embeded enigma codes throughout the sequence, by doing this we have followed Barthes's theory. The symbolic codes that we have applied make the audience on edge. They are purposely there to ensure that the audience are wondering what is happening and who is doing it. However, in our opening sequence the audience don’t ever get to see the antagonist sabotaging the dancer, therefore, by doing this we are going against our inspirational theme of ‘The Black Swan’. In our opening sequence we have also ensured that there are both Hero and Villain characters which are the typical conventions of a thriller film, this also relates to the conventions of Propp’s theory. For example, in our film we have an Antagonist and a Protagonist, however, we do not see the antagonist throughout the sequence, we only ever get to hear unusual thins happening, which makes the audience on edge and think that someone is sabotaging the dancer. Barthes- enigma codes and symbolic codes Todorov- equilibrium/disequilibrium Propp- character/theory Levii strauss- binary oppositions
- 5. USE OF MISE EN SCENE Analysis of my Thriller ‘The Last Dance’ Evidence from my Thriller ‘The Last Dance’ Comparison to an existing Thriller product Throughout my thriller opening sequence of ‘THE LAST DANCE’ the dancer is being sabotaged, by someone who we do not actually see. We decided to go against the typical antagonist conventions, therefore, instead of showing the antagonist do these things, we only get hints and cannot actually see who this person is. As a group we were inspired by the film ‘THE BLACK SWAN’, as you can see, in this film the antagonist is shown. In the film ‘The Black Swan’ the antagonist being Nina Portman is shown throughout. However, in our film the antagonist is not shown throughout, and we are only getting hints from what is happening.
- 6. USE OF MISE EN SCENE Analysis of my Thriller ‘The Last Dance’ Evidence from my Thriller ‘The Last Dance’ Comparison to an existing Thriller product As a group we decided to film up in the Drama Studio. This was because the studio was easy to access and included everything that we needed in order to film, from the sound board, AV screen to the lighting desk and the area for our Protagonist to dance in. We also liked the idea of using the studio as we could vary the lighting at different times of the sequence. For example, we were able to use the dark lighting, surrounding a spot light to create a tense atmosphere during the film.
- 7. USE OF EDITING Analysis of my Thriller ‘The Last Dance’ Evidence from my Thriller ‘The Last Dance’ Comparison to an existing Thriller product Our inspiration was taken from the opening sequence of the film ‘THE BLACK SWAN’. As a group we all were really intrigued by the opening sequence where the dancer is being drawn. We decided to use this within our piece and also use it for when the antagonist rips up the charcoal drawing to create not only a tense atmosphere, but another enigma code. This will puzzle the audience and as a consequence they will want to know what happens.
- 8. USE OF SOUND Analysis of my Thriller ‘The Last Dance’ Evidence from my Thriller ‘The Last Dance’ Throughout the opening sequence of our media film ‘THE LAST DANCE’ we decided to use a music soundtrack of which we found on the school music departments website. We chose this music as it was very suitable for Ellie’s dance. As a group we thought that the music made the whole film very dramatic. The musical soundtrack in the black swan happens to meet the typical conventions of a ballet genre, therefore, by using an upbeat soundtrack in our sequence, we are going against conventions.
- 9. USE OF CAMERA Analysis of my Thriller ‘The Last Dance’ Evidence from my Thriller ‘The Last Dance’ Throughout the process of filming ‘THE LAST DANCE’ we ensured that we took a variety of different shots of Ellie dancing. Throughout the film we included medium shots of Ellie dancing, Close ups of her feet and hands. One of the most important shots of the sequence was the extreme close up shot of Ellie’s face, the reason behind this shot being the most important was because within this one particular shot a lot of emotion and atmosphere is shown. This shot expresses Ellie’s feelings just after the door is slammed and the music is stopped. This creates tension to the audience.
