Thriller Interviews

We decided that we would do some interviews within the group, giving everybody a turn. We came up with some ideas of where to film our interviews and some kind of story lines behind them to make them with a touch a hilarity in them. We then edited the scenes together to show our interviews. Here is the final product of our work.

Opening Scene of: Shadow of a Doubt

This film was made in 1943 by Alfred Hitchcock, from the beginning the film shows contrast. We meet Uncle Charlie first, he is lying down but he looks tense and on edge. The lighting in the room is dark, a lot of shadows are shown. He is holding a cigar dressed in a suit, then the camera shows the money laying on the table and some dropped on the floor. This shows us that he can afford the luxuries in life yet he doesn't care about the money. The area in which he lives is run down, grim and looks like a deprived area. Then we see the contrast when we meet Charlie. Charlie is Uncle Charlie's niece. Charlie is laying on the bed the same as her Uncle earlier in the film, the lighting is brighter and the area looks more up beat, and happy like they are a lot better off. Charlie looks like she is wearing just a day dress but it could be classed as formal wear. Charlie looks a lot more relaxed on the bed. This shows the big contrast in the opening scene of Shadow of a Doubt.

Preliminary Exercise

My thriller - ideas

My group consists of Charlie, Rory, Joe and Me.
At first we sat down to discuss what ideas we had for the storyline to our thriller. We thought of three storylines; a child that has been bullied in the past and a result of this he turns insane and the viewer see's the world through his/her eyes and a teenager that went on a night out with friends but when he wakes up he is in a dark celler tied up and has flashbacks of what happened the night before trying to figure out why he is there. We think we are going to choose to use the second idea.
