Angles we were interested in, Some we used.



Point of veiw shot

This really grabbed our attention as it keeps the identity of the person whose point of veiw it is, minimal allowing us to keep the 'Villain' a mystery untill the very end! It also allowed us to create the Effect of someone being watched. To add to this shot we used a Hand held camera, Even tho this makes the shot quite shaky it also adds realism from the persons eyes.

Thriller Ideas

Ideas?

As individuals we all had ideas which we thought , "Wow", but as a group you realise that you have to work as a team, and each one of you have to have an input.


Schizophrenia, was one of our Big ideas and allowed a motive for the ''killer'', which could be hid from the audience untill the end, of even be left as a cliff hanger. We wanted to give small clues throughout. This was featured in a series of the Soap "Hollyoaks" and was very interesting and we thought would be perfect for a thriller.


We also took Inspiration from "The Sixth sense", which allowed the audience to be fooled by the camera angles by thinking the character was real, when in actual fact he was ghost.
