Evaluation

Part 1- The Brief
The brief of the open sequence of my thriller was to produce the titles and opening of a new thriller fiction film, to last the maximum of two minutes. In the opening sequence of my thriller the main character and protagonist is walking to meet some one however she is being followed, she senses this throughout her walk so she looks back to make sure that she is not being followed. When she gets to the train station we see who has been following her it is a man dressed in all black with his face concealed. While she is waiting for her train the man is on the other plat form watching her when she looks back the train rushes past. We see a flash back of the girl and a man arguing very violently, it seems like they are some how emotionally evolved some how. The girl catches the train to the next train station however the man is there waiting for her it seems like he is going to make his move to her, moments before he does this she interacts with some one which stops this from happened the other man that she is with seems to be her new boy friend.
The sub genre of our thriller is a stalker thriller, in a stalker thriller there is always some one desiring some thing to a sick extent however they may not be able to obtain this thing or person that they are trying to get to. There are also elements of romance; the themes around romance in thrillers are obsession, lust, love, jealousy. A

Part2 -Who the target audience of my production is and why
Our target audience for our opening thriller sequence is ages 15-20, because all the characters with in the movie are between those ages. Also this film is more about the average urban young person’s life style because the opening setting is in a train station which is not a common place for a story to start in rural areas. It will also appeal to both genders and all races however this opening sequence would more relate to women because it touches on how some women may feel venerable when walking down the street and waiting for a train at night.
This whole film would also relate to people that have been in a relationship and know how it feels to break up with someone that means a lot to them. (Treatment) In finding our target audience the research we conducted was a (Questionnaire) we conducted this questionnaire in order to find our kind of people we were going to try to appeal to with our target age group. With (Results) from the questionnaire we were able to see what kind of genre of thriller that we were going to produce also what type of themes that were going to come up. Due to the results of our questionnaire we decide we were going to do a romantic/ stalker thriller with some action in it, the different themes in our thriller would be basketball and dancing. The themes of our film were made apparent through our opening sequence.

Part 6
I feel that we have reached our target audience well because we showed our thriller opening sequence to some of our friends and peers, and they felt that the film reached my target audience. We made our protagonist a young, beautiful girl. We also made that character a strong woman who is in control. This would appeal to both a male and female audience. I felt that the pace of the editing especially during the opening 30 seconds as the girl was walking down the street to her destination. The time and location that the opening sequence was set in was good because it appeal to a larger audience ok young people that live in cities; however this may not appeal to young people living rural areas. When the two teachers that were evaluating our work looked over and when our pears evaluated our work thought that the flash back did not fit to the rest of the opening sequence and the transition between the flash back and the real present time in the opening sequence I think that this happened because we did not allocate enough time to produce the best that flash back that we could. Also our peer thought that our backing music was very repetitive. We need to improve the last shot so it makes sense and connects to the narrative.

I feel that the most successful part of our preliminary task was the use of the research and planning because so many people filled out our questionnaire we had so many results to work with to shape the best most successful thriller we could and I feel we did that. The less successful was the use of technology spinally with the ITunes /I movies I was unable to use garage band so some of the music on our thriller is out of time with the thriller. I fell that thing I mostly improve upon from my preliminary exercise were the camera works by adding a wider range f camera angles and shots, show various things like emotion status and power. I also improved on use the technology required to produce the piece of work because I was able independently use I movies and add effects such as fades and black and white.

Alfred Hitchcock's powerful, complex psychological thriller, Psycho (1960) is the "mother" of all modern horror suspense films - it single-handedly ushered in an era of inferior screen 'slashers' with blood-letting and graphic, shocking killings (e.g., Homicidal (1961), The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974), Halloween (1978), Motel Hell (1980), and DePalma's Dressed to Kill (1980) - with another transvestite killer and shower scene). While this was Hitchcock's first real horror film, he was mistakenly labeled as a horror film director ever since
