Before we started to create our thriller film we did some research on the conventions that a most commonly used within thriller films. We did this research to further our understanding on thriller films in general. Also, we did this research to generate ideas for our own thriller film. We watched films such as, 'The Taking Of Pelham 123', 'Psycho', 'North by North-West'. After watching these movies we all realised that the most common convention, suspense. The suspense was used to create an atmosphere that makes the audience feel vulnerable, which in-turn makes the audience extremely alert and immerses them further into the film. The suspense also creates the constant threat of danger and impending violence. from this, we knew that we should implement suspense in our film. Because we wanted to have suspense in our film, I did further research on how to implement it effectively.
After doing some research, I found that suspense is generated by clever camerawork., editing, soundtrack and even some parts of the mise-en-scene. From the movies that we watched we found that within many thriller films the lighting would also be very dark throughout certain parts of the movie.
