P2-38 : THRILLER PROJECT 2007/8

Surface- Great example



I think this sequence is very good and interesting, it has thriller conventions in it but could also be portrayed as a horror. What makes it a thriller is the suspense and erieness to give the audience a thrill.
The structure of the sequence- while the titles are coming up there is some sort of murder going on and it keeps cutting back, the audience is not sure what is happening which makes it a good thriller. My guess is a vampire film because you can sort of see a man bitting a girls neck.
The lighting is very good and works well, it is quite dark, and with the blood moving with a black background is very effective, when the murder is happening it is dark but with a white light shinning on the two characters, which makes a sort of grey, this works well and makes me think she is being murdered somewhere dark and eerie. From what i can see there are no props and cant tell what clothing apart from the close up of the girls jumper.
The camera work is very good and suits the genre, it starts off quite calm and focuses on the blood floating, which i'm guessing was food colouring in water, then as the sequence goes on it gets faster and there is a lot of rapid camera work and quick imagery. There are a few close ups of the girls face, one being of her eye, which at first glance i couldn't tell what it was, there is also close ups of her body, which you can see a white jumper. The framing is very gd and works well.
I think the sound is very good in this sequence, goes extremely well with the setting. It starts off very quiet and erie but by the gets very loud and fast. At the end it makes you feel quite uneasy
