Evaluation Question 3
The document summarizes feedback from audiences on a student film group's short film at various stages of development:
- An initial questionnaire provided feedback on the storyline, genre, music, and rating which helped the group improve the film.
- A second questionnaire on a rough cut also provided positive feedback on understanding the story, enjoying the plot twist, and suggestions to improve the final film.
- The final film questionnaire indicated the film was successful, with most rating it highly and saying they would recommend it due to its originality.
Evaluation Question 4
The document discusses the use of new media technologies in the production of a short film. Various online tools were used for research, planning, filming, editing, and evaluation. Google, IMDb, YouTube, and BBFC helped with initial research and inspiration. Blogger, Facebook, Word, and Celtx supported planning and organization. Filming utilized a Canon camera. Adobe Premier Pro was the primary editing software, and Photoshop created the film poster. Evaluation involved slideshare, prezi, and blogger, though these platforms occasionally crashed or had navigation issues. Overall, the document outlines how various online tools facilitated each stage of the short film process.
Final Film Questionnaire Results
The survey results showed that most audience members (17/20) understood the storyline of the film. While 15/20 said they would recommend the film to friends due to its interesting plot, 5/20 said they wouldn't due to their preferences for different genres. Ratings for the film ranged from 3 to 4 out of 5, with comments noting that it was well-made for a student film but could be improved by adding more scenes. Overall, the entire audience enjoyed the experience of watching the short film, despite some misunderstanding parts or typically disliking the thriller genre.
Research into title sequences - Matt
A title sequence introduces a film or television program by presenting titles, credits, and other information at the beginning. It typically includes opening credits over visuals and music to set the tone. Thriller title sequences often feature high-speed action shots in low-key lighting with greyscale colors showing key characters and blood or bullet holes. James Bond films sometimes integrate the title sequence into the film itself by pairing credits with scenes and characters. Deadpool similarly introduces characters through action shots of their faces.
Misplaced rough cut questionnaire results
A survey was conducted of 20 people who viewed an unspecified film. The survey included questions about the film's genre, appropriate age rating, fitting music style, understandability of plot, enjoyment of plot twist, and potential areas of improvement. For the genre question, 40% thought it was a thriller, 35% a comedy, 15% an action, and 10% a drama. The majority felt the appropriate age rating was 12A. Rock music was selected as the best fitting style by 45% of respondents. 85% understood the plot and 75% enjoyed the plot twist, citing it was attention-grabbing and original. Suggested improvements included adding more music, increasing dialogue volume, and filling black screens with more content.
Editing in thrillers
Elliptical editing removes irrelevant shots to convey the passage of time or speed up journeys. Parallel editing cuts between two interrelated stories happening simultaneously to build suspense. Flashbacks and flash-forwards insert scenes from the past or future to provide character backstory and motivation. Match on action continues actions between shots to maintain continuity and suspense.
Storylines & Characters
This document discusses common storylines and characters in thriller genre films. It notes that thrillers typically involve a protagonist facing an unknown danger or problem, with tension created through emphasizing the threat. Action scenes like chases and fights are used to generate excitement, and plot twists keep audiences engaged. Main characters usually include a strong male protagonist on a quest and an antagonist opposing him, often with additional antagonists making his problem more difficult to solve. Women tend to have smaller side roles in thrillers.
Thriller genre research
The thriller genre encompasses films and literature that elicit feelings of suspense, excitement, and anxiety in viewers. Thrillers take place in a variety of settings and usually involve life-or-death situations. Some popular thriller subgenres include crime thrillers, mystery thrillers, and action thrillers. To achieve thrills, these films employ suspense, plot twists, shocking imagery, and point-of-view shots to isolate characters and intensify danger. Over the past 30 years, the thriller genre has evolved with technology and culture, expanding to include disaster and mystery subgenres beyond its realistic roots in 1940s-1970s films that played on actual societal fears.
Pre Production questionnaire
Based on a questionnaire given to 20 people about an upcoming film:
- 16 people understood the storyline and thought the genre was thriller, while 12 thought it was thriller, 5 thought it was crime, and smaller numbers thought it was action or comedy.
- The music that would fit best according to respondents was ambient (9), orchestral (7), rock (3), and rap (1).
- Most (11) thought the film should be rated 12A due to violence and swearing, while others said 15, PG, or 12A.
- The most preferred genres were thriller (7) and action (6), while smaller numbers preferred comedy or horror.

The majority (8) said they enjoyed the film, while most (7) said they would watch it if it was a full-length film. When asked about emotions while watching, 7 people said they felt scared. Most (8) thought the appropriate age rating would be 18+. Positive feedback included the film being easy to understand and interesting, while criticisms included a lack of effects fitting the genre and not having the genre clearly defined until the end.
Evaluation question 6
The document discusses technologies used during the process of creating a film project. During research, online resources like IMDB, Rotten Tomatoes, YouTube and Google were used to learn about film genres and psychological thrillers. Blogger and SlideShare were used to reflect understanding and share work. In planning, Celtex was used to write the script efficiently and social media helped with questionnaires. A word template created a shot list and risk assessment. During production, a Panasonic camera captured high-definition footage and a tripod kept shots steady, though only having one camera slowed filming different angles. Adobe Premiere Pro, while challenging at first, became an efficient and easy editing tool once basics were learned.
Evaluation question 2
The document discusses how social groups are represented in a film. It portrays college students as average but the main character Charlie is an outcast, as shown through his dark clothing which hints he has a secret dark personality, challenging stereotypes of cheerful teenagers. The film also shows three friends sticking together, supporting the stereotype of sociable teenagers. While one male character Tom is talkative and headstrong, fitting a male leader stereotype, the main character Charlie is quiet and stays out of the way, subverting typical expectations of outgoing males. The female character Gemma is friendly but passive, fitting a gender norm, but her swearing also challenges expectations of passive women.
Evaluation Question 4
The target audience for the media product is young adults aged 18 and older who are interested in psychological films and thrillers. Pre-production research in the form of a questionnaire found that most respondents were between 18-20 years old and thought an 18+ rating would be most appropriate. The genre of the film was also finalized as a psychological thriller based on the questionnaire results that showed 20% preferred horror films and 20% preferred action films.
Character Features with Thriller/Drama Films
The document discusses character features that are common in thriller and drama genres. For thrillers, protagonists are often brave male leads, while antagonists seek revenge from past events. Psychological thrillers focus on the mental state of characters who rely on intelligence over physical strength. Crime dramas feature crime solvers and criminals, with victims of crimes. Dramas contain relatable characters who experience real-life emotions and conflicts internally or externally, with an emphasis on character development.

Thriller genre research - Matt
- 1. Thriller: Genre Research MATT LEESLEY
- 2. What is the Thriller Genre? Thriller is a broad genre of literature, film and television, having numerous subgenres. Thrillers are characterized and defined by the moods they elicit, giving viewers heightened feelings of suspense, excitement, surprise, anticipation and anxiety. Today, thrillers provide a wide variety of worlds - the law, espionage, action-adventure, casino underworld, medicine, police and crime, romance, history, politics, high-tech, and religion. Thrillers are usually about life and death situations.
- 3. Examples Of Thrillers Blade Runner 2045 War For The Planet Of The Apes Batman: The Dark Knight Inception Jaws Gravity
- 4. Sub-Genres Of Thrillers A sub-genre is a type of genre in another genre whereas a hybrid is two types of genres in one. Thriller films usually have sub genres or hybrids, such as… Crime Thriller Mystery Thriller Action Thriller Thrillers also go well with horror films, for example… IT Saw
- 5. What does a thriller film use to achieve the “thrill”? A good thriller includes intense excitement: building up suspense, tension and anticipation of things to come. As a movie genre, it provides thrills from various circumstances presented in the story, where a character encounters certain types of menacing, mysterious or dangerous situations. When making a thriller movie, you need to keep the question of what comes next for the viewers' minds as the movie keeps them guessing. Some of the popular elements a thriller story holds include suspense-filled chase scenes, "whodunit" plotting that allows the audience to wonder who killed a character or who committed the crime in the story, shocking sounds and visuals that surprise the audience every now and then, and unexpected twists and turns in the story that provide adrenaline rush to both the characters and the audience. Usually, the plot of a thriller intends to isolate a character from his or her surroundings as the danger intensifies. Usually, thrillers use the point-of-view shot where the camera works like the eyes of the character. This allows the audience to share the same view of the scenes the way the character sees it. Lighting the scene in a puzzling, strange or curious way provides a more atmospheric mood to further evoke the thrill needed in the movie's various scenes. Putting emphasis on the pacing of the movie during editing. Use variations of tight and long shots, short and long takes and moving and stationary shots to visually provide an effective succession of images, emotions and ideas.
- 6. History Of The Thriller Genre Over the past 30 years the thriller genre has changed a lot, this may be because of the advanced technology, special effects and our evolving culture. The thriller films that were produced during the 1940's - 1970's were based on peoples actual fears. These films were considered realistic. The modern thrillers have many sub-genre's such as disaster, mystery and crime. Old thriller examples… Armored Car Robbery Side Street
