Keegan's Evaluation Q1

In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

Throughout the thriller project, we have been looking at a range of different thriller openings such as Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction and Inception. I noticed that in the wide range of films, that a large number have a sense of darkness or very low lighting.



The Low lighting helps create the sense that a thriller should have, that being the deep suspense thought of anything could suddenly happen at any time and the mystery behind the story of what has happened. The suspense helps keep the audience involved with the rest of film by keeping them asking questions which cannot be answered straight away. 


We added a sense of darkness into our thriller by having low lighting on jake's face when he opens the box to find his father's possessions. The use of low lighting makes the audience wonder on how the character could possibly react and how it will have an effect on all the other characters in the same sequence. We also added a piece of music to this shot which has a dark atmosphere feel to it which helps create a sense of confusion and anger.
