We have decided that we want the genre of our film to be a 'Thriller". So I have researched the definition of Thriller Films.
Thriller is a broad genre of literature film and television programming that uses suspense, tension and excitement as the main elements. So we will attempt to use this feature in our two minute film opening. Thrillers heavily stimulate the viewers moods giving them a high level of anticipation, uncertainty and suspense. A thriller is a villan driven plot, whereby he presents obstacles that the hero must overcome.
The aim of thrillers is to keep the audience engaged in the film and keep them on the edge of their seats. The protagonist in a thriller film has to be likeable and create empathy in some way for the viewer, in order for the audience to pity them.
However there are common sub-genres of thriller, for example psychological thrillers, crime thrillers and mystery thrillers. Even through there are these new inciting sub genres, soon enough the horror and action genres will overwhelm and overtake the original thriller genre.
I want our 2 minute film opening to be engaging and inciting. I want it to portray our protagonist as vulnerable, but just like in the original thriller genre our protagonist will overcome some kind of obstacle that she will face.
