2. Positioning
This screen capture still shows that this thriller has the sub genre
of action by using close ups that are positioned slightly off centre.
This shows the sub genre because it close which shows that is it is
mysterious. This also shows the sub genre because the idea of
something being up close and personal suggests that it is going
to be fast paced.
3. Lighting
This Lighting shows the sub genre of action thriller
because it is bright which suggests that something has
just happened which makes the scene exciting; full of
action.
4. Acting
The way this man acts in the movie makes the sub genre obvious
because he is sitting on a lift which arises questions as to why he is
doing that. This suggests an action sub genre because he is not
doing the obvious thing and usually in action films people are trying
to find their way around things. Furthermore he also looks
concerned, which would suggest he doesn’t know what is
happening and this would suggest the idea that something needs to
be uncovered.
5. Costume, Hair and Makeup
The hair and makeup in this film is rather what would
be accepted as normal. This shows the sub genre of
action because this shows they don’t have to do their
makeup up because they’re always in a rush which
would suggest the fast paced genre of action as they
don’t have time to focus on their selves.
6. Expression
This image still would suggest the sub genre of action because
his expression shows that he is concerned about something
this concern would like to the sub genre of action thriller
because it creates tension for the viewer as they don’t know
what the character is worried about. In addition this scene
doesn’t spend a lot of time on the screen so it would suggest
that it’s fast paced like and action film.
7. Setting and props
The use of the idea of a bomb thread for a prop suggests that
the film is an action film because it adds some pace to the
opening scene. This also suggests the idea of a action thriller as
most action films have bombs and weapons in them just like
this one does.
8. Setting and props
This still would suggest that the film has sub genre
of action because he is using not normal means to
get around. This would also suggest action because
he is using props that would be used in an action
film. Furthermore the setting of being inside a lift
would also suggest an action film because it is
mysterious setting to be in.
