Whilst in the build-up to confirming our final idea, I decided to do some second hand research in the attempt to find some good concepts for our film. I used websites such as;
And search engines such as Google, Yahoo etc.
I found ideas4writers the most useful as it had hundreds of
rough examples of short thriller films. It helped us, to get more ideas flowing
within the group and we came up with new little things to add to our main idea.
We also looked at the opening few minutes of the thriller movie Seven. I have
picked a certain part to concentrate on and talk about.
We saw that in the opening of Seven, it used quite psychotic
themes throughout with a man using a blade to take off his finger prints, which
suggests that this man has committed a crime and is trying to get rid of
evidence (see below.) Also, the main colour was black which clearly has negative
connotations relating to death etc. The sounds and music used creates a scary,
eerie atmosphere for the viewer and really sets the mood and tone for the whole
film. The lighting and theme is dark which suggests to several things to the
audience for example, the unknown, hidden etc. All of these things come together and produce an unnerving mood for the audience, instantly giving them an idea of what to expect
