Camera angles.

For our thriller opening we have decide to use different camera angle to create different effents.

• Low angle shot - we use this when the girl walks out of the room after an argument with the boy, this shows her vunrability.

• Over the shoulder shot - we use this when the couple are having an argument to show reactions to what is being said. Also to look over the boys should to have eye line match on his research.

• Shot/reverse shot - We do this when the couple are arguing to show each of them and to establish which one holds the most amount of power in the conversation at the time.

• Framing shot - we use this twice. The first time is on the boy at his desk doing his work to show his importance. The second is on the girl when the couple are arguing this shows she is important throughout the entire thriller opeing.

• Panning shot - We do this to follow the boys movement so the audience can follow what is going on and the task that the boy is doing.

• Zoom in/out - this shows what the audience must pay attention to and also allows us to show more detail.

• Point of view shot - we use this when the gilr is reaching for the boys shoulder, this shows the audience her intentions and what might be about to happen.

Costume analysis.

Audition script.

We chose to write up a draft script for auditions of our characters fighting. This is due to how vital it is to establish the on screen chemistry and flow of our actors as it is the only part of our opening where we see both our characters interacting with each other - so these auditions gave us an idea of how the real thing could/should look.

Music choices and analysis.

Daughter 

We have chosen to use 'run' by the band Daughter (the first 34 seconds). As we feel the tone and pace appropriately captures the atmospheric mood to our thriller. we feel it sets the scene as the use of guitar comes across as mellow yet hauntingly eerie. it also matches the theme of normality to our opening as the segment we plan to use has been created by a basic acoustic guitar and nothing electronic or artificial. This reflects on the normality of our setting and location but creates a tense contrast because of the characters' situation. Then, half way through the opening we will use the first 13 seconds of the song 'love' (by Daughter). This song creates a really eerie and uncomfortable ringing noise that fades into a violent silence and fits perfectly with the scene where the dead girls hand appears. Nearing the end of our thriller opening we will insert the song 'landfill' (also by Daughter) as the drum beats really create tension and an aspect of the unknown. 

Asking Alexandria 

We have decided that Emily will do a piano medley cover to re-create the piano bridge from the song 'not the american average' by the band Asking Alexandria. We feel this piece suits our thriller opening when we show the couple fighting (but the dialogue will be cut out by the piano medley) as the chime of the piano keys hover in an echoey hollow-like silence.
