5. pre production
The document discusses plans for posters and a trailer for a film project. It describes three poster designs - an iconography poster showing a plague doctor mask and axe, a close-up of a tortured victim's face, and a bloodied axe in a sink. For the trailer, it outlines the film's plot about a man who tortures people after his girlfriend's death. It also discusses following conventions like dark colors and lighting for the horror elements and warmer tones for early romantic scenes to establish the protagonist's motivation.
OUR PITCH.
The opening scene of the psychological thriller takes place in an unknown dark room. A girl wakes up with amnesia and sees pictures of crossed-out people on the wall, including her own. She discovers a matching body on the floor, realizing she has killed people who have hurt her. A ghost helps guide her as she works to uncover her identity and past betrayals through flashbacks. Her journey leads her to burn the helper's body, resolving the ritual and gaining understanding.
Evaluation question 1
This document compares the media product created to the thriller films "Red Dragon" and "Perfume: The Story of a Murderer" in terms of genre conventions, plot, characters, action, title design, editing techniques, and camera angles. The created media product uses many thriller conventions like low lighting, nonlinear storytelling, close-ups of the killer and their obsession. However, it challenges conventions by featuring a younger killer and focusing on their painting obsession rather than the killings themselves. Overall, the created media product draws from but also distinguishes itself from these thriller films.
Pitch presentation media
This document outlines Aleks' idea for a TV drama/thriller show. The show would follow a teenage boy who receives a text message saying he has 24 hours left. It would start with him running through the woods and then flash back to him in a classroom with another text. The show would have three main characters portraying the boy at different points in time. Aleks discusses the look and feel of the characters, as well as branding the show through colors, text, and graphics to convey the message that manipulation is wrong and there is always a way out of trouble. The opening would start abruptly and use flashbacks backwards in time to slowly reveal information and intrigue audiences.
Evaluation Question 4/5
Thomas Hope conducted research to determine the target audience for a thriller film project. He decided to focus on a young female audience after debates. Through questionnaires and interviews, he gathered feedback that helped narrow the audience and determine what themes and elements the audience preferred, such as a female lead and themes of torture. For his film, Hope aimed to make the protagonist relatable to the target audience and included conventions of the thriller genre. He also used sound and cinematography, such as diegetic sounds and music, to build tension without dialogue. Additionally, Hope planned to promote the film online to engage the target audience.

Media questions
This document contains an essay response from Clarissa Shulungu discussing their opening film sequence and characters. The key characters are a little girl presented with a demonic toy and a mysterious man of unknown identity. The little girl represents innocence corrupted by evil influences, shown through close-ups and changes in behavior. The mysterious man embodies mystery and evil for providing the toy. The characters are compared to those in the film "The Possession" for similar portrayals of possession. The intended audience is ages 15 and older, targeting females for their ability to relate to challenges faced by young girls. Elements like mystery, suspenseful music, and unnatural occurrences align with audience expectations of the thriller genre.

Tv drama pitch
- 1. TV Drama Pitch Sam Leah
- 2. My initial mindmap of ideas
- 3. Rough plot synopsis/idea • Detective themed drama • Main character is a detective who has a negative, unmotivational mood after a run of unsuccessful events • Discovers a new case that could lift his mood, however finds out a prime suspect is someone the main character is friendly with, sees every day, good friends. • He must then take the risk which could put that friendship in peril • A redemption arc/disillusionment arc type story.
- 4. Characters/character ideas • Main character (detective) is visibly unhappy and is mean to those around him. Redemption arc, this case makes him realise his personality and it helps him to improve. Could be that he presents, or tries to present, a more positive image of himself, and then non- diagetic narration from the character tells us how he really feels. His unhappiness has almost a comedic nature to it • The opposite occurs with the suspect, whose relationship with the main character and those around him deteriorates as he descends into crime. Creates the protagonist/antagonist battle and it helps the main character to improve • Perhaps also an assistant to the detective, who the main character enjoys teasing, audience side with him • To balance out, perhaps a no-nonsense, tough superior to the detective, who in the long run helps him to improve as a person • Potentially a millennial type secretary who is more interested in social media than her job
- 5. Opening sequence • Opening is a shot of the main character, in an office scene • Reveal of the crime on a TV or in a newspaper placed on his desk, with a sketch of the suspect (who the detective recognises) • Opening title with names of actors • Realisation that he recognises the face takes the detective out of his office and into a different location • Perhaps an awkward run in with the suspect, and the detective is shocked into saying nothing about his potential crime. • Then returns to his office, and discusses the event with everyone else
- 6. Branding • A detective style font, maybe a typewriter font like Courier. • Red, white and black colour scheme. • The website would match this typewriter theme, kept relatively simple. Idea for the show title image style, perhaps with blood splatters or something similar
- 7. What will my opening aim to achieve? • Hopefully my drama opening will be a mix of drama, to fit the TV drama brief, but also with a hint of comedy or mildly comedic scenes which would help retain the viewing of the ‘fun loving 16-25 audience’ • I would also aim to clearly establish the roles and personalities of the characters so that from the first 3 minutes the audience know what is happening.
- 8. What will my website design aim to achieve? • Similar to the Killling Eve website I analysed, I think a large header front and centre featuring the title art would be great, with the main characters surrounding it • A fun feature I could add is a character screen where you could look at profiles for all the characters (perhaps in a detective file theme), vaguely similar to the islanders tab on the Love Island website. I would take similarities from the Love Island website, for example the large image header
