The document discusses how the media product, a two minute thriller created by the student, uses and develops conventions of the thriller genre through its cinematography, editing, sound, lighting, mise-en-scene, characters, and narrative structure. Specifically, it challenges conventions by having a female protagonist portrayed initially as the antagonist, and uses techniques like high/low angle shots, fast/slow pacing, and diegetic/non-diegetic sounds to manipulate audience understanding and build tension. Comparisons are made to existing thrillers like Scream and Don't Say a Word to further analyze genre conventions.
