The sequence then starts to name the people who helped cast the film, as well as the director. It showed who was in charge of music, costuming, editing, photography, then the producers. Throughout the sequence, there was mysterious music, which is usually seen in thrillers. pictures on the screen changed as the titles changed. So there was a new title for every new picture. The setting seemed to be in a town that didn't have many people in it. We could probably say that this town is small or not very popular. There is a voice of a man talking about him and his wife. When he mentions her hair there was a scene of a woman with blonde hair laying down. From what the man is saying, we can tell that they don't have a normal relationship. This would definitely get the viewer's attention...

These images and the city clips may indicate where the entire film will take place. There could also be an important building that plays into the plot. Sometimes in thrillers, you find out that one of the previous settings had an important aspect to put the plot together. The opening could also be foreshadowing of what places will be important later on. The music used in the opening sounds very suspenseful. There were not many pictures aside from the building.

It showed who was in charge of music, costuming, editing, photography, then the producers.   The images used seem to mainly be about biology. There are multiple particles that seem to be cells. It then shows clips of a man and a few animals in what appears to be a lab. The sequence also focuses on words that were written by the man on paper. At the very beginning, there were a series of comic pages which tells us that the movie may be an adaption to the comics. We can conclude from these images that the man is performing experiments on these animals for a theory he may have. Based on the words written on the papers that were focused on, we can probably g...

Later on, it introduces some of the other characters. It builds the moment by showing background events that lead to the appearance of the next potential main character.  The first clip of the man speaking to the girls can allow us to assume that the man has some sort of psychological disorder. The way he is acting all calm and friendly in this situation tells us that whatever his issue is will be part of the main plot. The scen...

  https://www.watchthetitles.com/ Now, this website was incredible at the start and full of colors. It caught my attention instantly when entering it. I came to this website to learn more about thriller movies. There are so many great things to learn on this website from not only movies and tv shows but also video games and student projects. On this website, you can also watch the designers being interviewed which is really cool and helpful. There weren't too many designers for a thriller on this website bu with what it had was enough. After looking at thriller at looked at some other genres such as comedy and action. I also got curious and looked at the video games section. There wasn't too much in the video game section though compared to the other sections. I was here to mostly just research thriller but I ended up looking at more than just that and it was fun to learn about other genres.

  To start off this website obviously talks about movies but it goes into details with each movie and scene. I like how on this website there is a lot of URLs and links to not only videos but more pages with research. I trying to find thriller movies or pages with thriller movie information. In the beginning, when I first clicked on the website I was really confused about where to go and look but after a little bit of time I figured it out. I can't even tell you how many people this website describes because there are so many. Well over 100 people are on this massive list of designers. I learned about a few of the designers and what they do in order for movies to happen. I also learned about them and how they got to this career. This website was really helpful to learn about a few designers that work with thriller movies and other movies too. An overall great website to learn about the design world and about movies.

  This movies, “IT”, is about seven kids being haunted by an evil entity. “It” appears as a creepy clown, and uses people fears to terrorize them. He the feeds off of those fears and uses them to disguise itself. It’s main targets are children because they are easier to scare. What elements of the genre that you chose to base your final task on does this movie have?  In this film, the plot builds slowly and gets more intense as it goes on. We want are film to have a similar concept.

  Extraction is about someone trying to save a boy's life because he had been kidnapped. The boy had disappeared just like in our film where the mother had disappeared on the three kids. Our movie can compare to Extraction because it's all about the three kids trying to rescue their mom. Movies like these gives you more ideas for what to film in the future and better understanding of things. This is a really great movie to watch if you love triller movies. I feel like this is a mix between thriller and action with all the fight scenes and gun fire but then again, most thriller movies are like that. The fight scenes to this movie were amazing with the knife fights and the gun fights. This movie is one of my favorites from 2020. I really liked how at the beginning the main character made an action-packed entrance where he jumped off a cliff into the water and stayed down there for a while. There are a lot of unexpected twist to this movie and I like that about it. It's like t...

    What elements of the genre that you chose to base your final task on does this movie have?  For one, this film is a thriller like the movie we plan on filming. The first 2 minutes of 6 Underground grabbed the audience’s attention for sure. By the end of those two minutes, I definitely would want to keep watching. We want our film to also have that captivating experience to make the viewers not want to give up after watching the first bit.  What elements of the genre did the movie have that you like? The film was exciting. It immediately got us questioning what was going on as soon as it started. By the time the first part of the film ended, there was already a twist. It completely changed the mood of not just the movie, but also the audience. There were multiple scenes that made the audience pay close attention and keep up with what was happening. The quick scene changes and clips were really cool because they added to the anticipation of the audience. •What elem...

      In action films there is a variety of components that makes it fit into its genre. Commonly seen lighting in action films  include can range from low-key lighting to high-key lighting. Both of which creates a certain type of atmosphere depending on the scene. Camera angles basically make up the movie  whether it is to allow the audience to understand what is happening in the scene or the viewpoints of different characters. In many action movies there are establishing shots, which shows the audience what is happening in the movie. Whether it is filming a fight between protagonists and antagonists or it is to highlight the importance of the location in the film. There are also establishing shots, Ariel shots and mid and high angle shots. This is to also create a deeper understanding of what is being filmed below and creates a more dramatic feel to the scene.

Some camera angles used in Thrillers are close-ups: which are typically used to show a character’s expression or reaction to an event, point of view shots: which engages the audience in the scene by putting them in the character’s position, high angles: which could symbolize looking down on a character in thrillers, and the opposite, low angles: which could portray the character as someone more powerful of superior.   High Angle Low Angle Camera movements commonly noticed in thrillers include tracking, pans, and tilts. Tracking is used to build suspense. The camera follows a moving object or character and allows the audience to anticipate what the scene is leading to. Pans can be used to show a comparison between two or more characters, or just to show the scene’s setting more. Tilts are also used to showcase a setting, scene, or character. Tilts sometimes focus of one subject, and the camera moves vertically to emphasize the introduction of what the camera is facing. Thri...

     For this assignment, we were asked to choose and research a genre of our choice. This project was made to explain the different aspects of the genre we chose. We were then asked to make a presentation on the said genre, where we would show the information we got from our research. The genre researched here was a comedy. At the time, the reason we chose this genre was that we thought that comedies had a lot of film aspects. compared to other film genres, comedies were able to use the characteristics of any other genre and would still be seen as a comedy. In the PowerPoint, we mentioned types of film lighting and camera angles and movements. Generally speaking, comedies used all types of lighting and camera angles. Some camera movements used in comedies are pans, tilts, zooms, and others see in the PowerPoint. They use   We talked about some aspects of Mis en Scene, as well as different sounds. Comedies are able to use any type of costume, makeup, props, setting a...

    For this project my team and I came up with two mystery pitches. For our first pitch we came up with: A groom sets out to track down a bounty hunter after his bride is killed at the alter. For our second pitch we came up with: Three siblings come home from school to find their beloved foster mother missing. We all wanted to do something mysterious and suspenseful so that we were able to create more of a cliff-hanger by the end of the first scene. Esther had introduced the first pitch while I had introduced the second. All three of us went from there and really enjoyed both ideas because we though it would be fun and cool. However, when it came to the first pitch we were worried about the costumes and the location because it is based on a wedding day. In addition, the expenses would have been a little bit more costly and we would have to include a lot more people in the scene because it is a wedding. We are also currently in a  pandemic-Covid-1...

      My name is Isabel Vera and I am currently a sophomore at Fort Lauderdale High School . I play travel softball and I also play softball for the varsity team at my school. For this project I am going to work with my friends Esther A. and Jose R. I originally asked to work with another group of people that I knew, but their parents were very cautious about being around others because of the Corona Virus. So I then asked Esther if I could work with her and I joined her group along with Jose. I had also worked with Esther on a previous project for this same class as well. We did well on that one so I knew that her and I were able to succeed in this one too. I decided to work with them because I already knew Esther and I know that we work well together. I had met Jose through Esther because of this project and we had already got along. We created a group chat and Esther and I introduced some ideas for the project so that we were all able to talk and bo...
