Image Control & Lighting

Image control and lighting was one of the most important parts of editing so that the correct atmosphere was created to portray the direct genre of a thriller. Each frame had to have dark lighting to create the unsettling atmosphere

  The opening frame to our thriller film shows a forest with police tape, clearly letting the audience know that it's a scene of a crime which fits one of the conventions of a thriller. The police tape shows that there is some sort of mystery to be solved and that a detective will be present, these aspects also fit the conventions of a thriller
