In what ways does your media product use
The document summarizes how the media product uses and develops conventions of psychological thriller films. It introduces two characters in the opening, which follows conventions. While it breaks convention by introducing a problem in the first two minutes, similar to "The Ring." It uses a female victim character, as most psychological thrillers do. Symbols of the eye and window are used to get inside the character's thoughts and signify the genre, as seen in films like "Vertigo" and "The Ring" by focusing on these elements. Looking down on the victim character conveys vulnerability, relating to the conventions seen in "Misery" but in a more subtle way.

Order of Titling
The document discusses three orders of titling films based on the status of those involved. Order 1 lists the director first if they have the highest status, followed by main actor and film title. Order 2 lists the main actor first if they have the highest status, then director and film title. Order 3 lists the film title first for films with lesser known stars and directors, followed by actor/director. The conclusion recommends orders 1 and 2 for films with big name stars and directors to highlight them, and order 3 for independent films with lesser known people involved.
The Sixth Sense
The title sequence of The Sixth Sense is unusual in that it begins with the titles before any footage. The black and white color scheme uses black to represent danger and death, and white possibly hints at the supernatural. If white represents innocence, the increasing presence of black suggests innocence giving way. The sequence follows a typical hierarchy, listing the main star first. Non-diegetic music builds tension and signals the thriller/horror genre. The instrumental climaxes on the title, scaring viewers and highlighting the film's importance. Footage appears three minutes in, starting with a long shot of a woman emerging from darkness.

Who is the target audience?
- 1. Who is the Target Audience?
- 2. Our Target Audience To make up our minds about who our target audience was going to be we had to look at other films in the same genre this can be difficult as every film is different but I found that pure psychological thrillers such as Memento and The Sixth Sense have a much older target audience mainly targeting the working class, between the ages 24-45, and films on the boundaries also known as hybrids which can fall into the branches of psychological thriller and maybe in to horror or action such as hostage and Dawn of the dead are aimed at younger audiences. As we wanted our film to be a “pure” psychological thriller I think it is conceivable that this be the criteria for our target audience:
- 3. Men and Women Working Class AGE: 25-45 Who like to go and watch movies which keep them on the edge and with high levels of excitement as the plot thickens.
