I think overall our idea translated well into the genre of the film. The rough film we created is definitely a thriller. We worked really hard on making sure we added a lot of tension and suspense into the film. The pace was ok for our first attempt but I think the fight scene will have to be a lot quicker and smoother, so this will need to be choreographed. I think our idea is clear to the viewer, however, we decided that the characters need to be made clearer and that the look of the actor/actress will be very important. I think tension has been created well accept we could definitely add more suspense and tension in with longer pauses. The camera angles we used weren't as varied as we would like. So when it comes to actually filming our thriller we should used a more diverse range. I think that close ups will be important especially for the audience to become closer to the characters. I think our idea of the men being police can taken away- mainly due to the fact that we forgot in our test shoot to add them in but we decided as a group that this concept wasn't needed as it might confuse the audience- therefore it doesn't add anything to the plot. The most important elements of our thriller idea is the actors and actress that will play the characters and the sound that will be used. We thought that we should have no dialogue in the thriller as that will take away from the mystery and suspense so therefore the soundtrack and sound effects are important. I think we need to clean up the idea a bit more as I think certain elements can be added to the story so the audience have a clearer understanding of what is going on for example that the girl who we are supposed to be liking is actually a brutal killer. Therefore, we will have to develop how we are going to show this in the real filming of the thriller. Overall, I like our idea and I am looking forward to filming it with my group. I also think that the action scene could be really realistic and cool if we find the right actress.
A good post overall. Good use of pictures (screen shots) to develop upon the points you make, though you could add more. Your reflection identity’s what has gone well, but also what hasn’t. Well done for offering early suggestions of how you would improve the elements you have identified. Though you could add more by explaining why. A good post, don’t forget key subject terminology, such and genre and conventions.
