What Kind Of Cinema Would Your Film Be Released In?

Our film will be released worldwide in a number of different cinema's which are big companies such as Cineworld and Vue. It would then be released into Imax and smaller cinema's across the country including The Picture House in Cambridge.

Rough Cut

The rough cut of our opening sequence has our general plot included in it as well as a sample music track that we need to extend. We need to add more footage to our video as well as the credits we should be able to finish our final opening sequence by the 21st March.

Target Audience Expectiations

For our audience we are targeting people who enjoy thrillers that have many enigmas, where there are questions raised throughout and especially in the opening sequence which we have made.

The age of people we hope to target are older teens over 15 as the content in our thriller could be seen as unsuitable for anyone younger than that.

Vertigo Opening Sequence/ World Cinema Thriller

Vertigo was made in 1958 and is a film directed by Alfred Hitchcock. The opening sequence in the film is a close up of a women's face, it then zooms into her eye. The music used is a classic thriller soundtrack of a high pitched violin with a repeated loud distorted sound. When the camera zooms into the women's eyes her face looks worried and scared as if she was has just been kidnapped. The camera then zooms into one of her eye's, when this happens the background turns into a red blurred effect. The women's pupil begins to turn and move in a swirled motion this is done by multi coloured graphic effects. Throughout this whole scene credits have been flashing on the screen in all different transitions. Once the credits have been completed the screen turns black and it opens to a scene of a rooftop police chase of a mysterious man running away and a policeman and another man chasing him. The establishing shot shows that the scene is set on a rooftop in a large city. The only lights are the city lights. The music then speeds up into a more fast paced sound with the continuous repeated sound being longer. There are also guns shots. The victim then jumps onto a slanted rooftop and the policeman follows. The other man with the police man then jumps and falls grabbing onto the gutter. The police man sees this and tries to help the man however the policeman falls off the rooftop with the other man still hanging off the rooftop. There are many thriller conventions used in this opening sequence. The high pitched violin sound with the distorted tone makes the thriller engaging. The close up of the women's scared and worried face makes the audience ask questions. There are many enigma's in this opening sequence like "Why is the police man chasing a man in a white jacket?" and "Why the women is scared and worried". The police chase and gun shots are both thriller conventions that also extinguishes the difference between thriller and horror.

ideas for editing

in our editing we could try parallel editing so we have a contrast of something that could seem pretty and not at all off putting for the audience and something that is a bit disturbing.this is a way of editing that thrillers use and it seems to work well by doing this and helps stick to the thriller convention.

we could also use quick cuts which also help to disturb the audience as they can not tell what is going on very clearly and that puts then on edge and want the many questions they have to be answered.

the music for the film will need to be edgy and have contrast in pitches between instruments so then it does not sound right for a piece of music.

Blog Analysis - How We Are Going To Use Our Feedback

• With our feedback, we will go through our blog posts and look for ways of incorporating more technical language into our posts. 

• We will also target our posts which have quite a lot of writing in it and put more visual aids into it to break it up eg photos and trailers. 

This will hopefully make our blog a higher grade and include the best quality writing that we can do.

Finally, we will continue to post quality posts with variety and visual aids.
