Task p12 the updated thriller pitch (1)
- 1. THE THRILLER PITCH ByAshley Ntumba
- 2. Intro • What Ihave done so far is put all my research on a blog and researched how I can make my product a successful thriller film. • This is based on the pre-production stages and how they will influence the production stage • It will also be about how I used all my research and how it affected the final product.
- 3. Brief • The researchtask we were assigned to do is complete a two minute introduction to a thriller film using titles and a soundtrack. • In order to do this and decide what title and soundtrack to have, the pre- production stage enabled me to further my research and my understanding of how to make a successful opening thriller sequence.
- 4. Ideas (The mindmap) • The mind map featured the 3 main ideas.
- 5. Target audience • Mytarget audience are teenagers aged 16-19 • Why? • I believed it was a good idea to target this age group as I am in the age group and most of my friends to I can be more able to relate my content with an age group that I am in. • From my surveys I found out that majority of people choose age 16-19 to be the appropriate target audience for my thriller film. • The message I wanted to get across through this thriller film is that sometimes being experimental can have a negative effect on an individual and how the conscious mind plays a huge role in our lives which I believe is very applicable to people this age (16-19 year olds).
- 6. Conventions of ThrillerFilms (in red are the ones I will use in my thriller) • Low-key lighting • Quick cuts and angle changes (this will be used after the characters hallucinate as they return back to their normal state) • The use of shadows (will be used towards the end scene as it will be set in the evening) • Music which helps to build tension (this will be used throughout the sequence) • The use of mirrors • Black and white shots • Flashbacks (at the end after the victims’ friend picks up the documents that the mysterious man had of his friends) • The theme of violence
- 7. BFI – feedback,discussion made +amendments • From the BFI I received a lot of feedback on our one of our ideas: • A woman said that it was not very unique as it had a typical plot and she believed that a lot of people have probably watched a thriller already like it. • A man said it was very simplistic and was not unique. • From all this feedback I decided to choose one of our other ideas as it would be more appealing to my target audience as they would of not heard a plot like it before and was an original idea which was stated later on in one of my audience research tasks as one of the people who gave feedback said that the new idea I choose was more original and not something you will have heard before.

- 10. Cast • The castconsists of: Kastriot – Mysterious Man (the antagonist) Sarviny – (protagonist 1) Kevin – (protagonist 2) Zeus – Victim’s friend I choose this cast as I thought it would be appropriate for my target audience because most of the characters are around the same age as my target audience and this will make it relatable to my audience and this will keep them engaged with the thriller sequence.
- 11. Locations & Riskassessment • Location choices • Paddington • Hammersmith • Risk assessment: • Most of these locations have busy roads which means extra care needs to be taken. • Make sure not to film near building sights as it will be very noisy and may interrupt the footage.
- 12. Music • The musicfor my thriller film was found off audionetwork.org • There is no copyright issues with any music involved in my product as the website I accessed them from had all non-copyright music. • Hacked – Luke Richards https://www.audionetwork.com/browse/m/track/hacked_1 36147?st=categorysearch&ref=23303 • Lair – David O’Brien https://www.audionetwork.com/browse/m/composer/Davi d-O'Brien_38
