Evaluation for preliminary

During the filming of our thriller preliminary task we learnt which camera shots looked effective for this genre, which shots add tension and which ones looked less effective which we could improve on. We learnt what looks good onscreen, and how to portray the character in a conventional thriller.

We tried different locations to find the most appropriate place to portray anxiety and the fear of the unknown amongst the audience. Also, we learnt how lighting can play an important part in mise-en-scene because it sets the atmosphere. As well as lighting, props are useful when conveying realism in a thriller opening sequence.

The sound plays an significant role in mise-en-scene but unfortunately we were unable to put a soundtrack in as we were short of time.

The difficulties we faced during the filming process consisted of shooting the quality required during the given time period. Another difficulty we came across was the lighting around the college. In most areas the lighting is very light, so finding the right location was difficult. as wanted a dark location to portray the evil of our opening scene.
