Overall Plan

We now have a good idea of the production of our thriller title sequence.
The aims are to keep the spectator interested and involved in the sequence. The purpose of a title sequence is to establish the mood and the visual charactor or the film, to introduce the spectator to some of these elements:
  • Characters
  • Locations
  • Narrative
  • Plot
  • Themes
  • Genre
  • Visual style

Looking back at thriller conventions we have A complex narrative structure, with false paths, clues and resolutions. Extraordinary events happening in ordinary situations. A narrative pattern of establishing enigmas which the viewer expects to be resolved. Protagonist with a ‘flaw’ which is exploited by the antagonist. Titles reflect an aspect of the pro/antagonist’s psychological state.

We plan to film like our storyboard, but in more detail. We hope that our sequence goes to plan. We will have soon uploaded images of our loacations and actual props.
