Final idea for thriller

As our final idea we chose to go with the idea where there are two best friends that go to school and one of the friends has turned to the use of drugs and the girl's friend is trying all the ways she can think of to her help her but in the end it doesn't take a good ending. This is because one of the friends ends up owning money to the drug dealer and can not pay him back. 

We decided to go with this idea because its more to do with a thriller and we all agreed on this in our second production.

Audience Research On Three Initial Ideas

On this idea this audience thought that it was a good idea but doesn't meet the brief and the task that we had to do.  We should also try to make it more with a plot and to show that its a thriller. -Stefan Sarkodie

 


This is a good idea you should combine this idea with the third idea to make it a really good thriller and it looks like it will have tense moments that will create a good atmosphere to the audience. Dennis Vandi

Three initial ideas for thriller


FIRST IDEA
Our first idea was to have a drug scene where two of our actors. This climax for this story would be that two friends need money and they are not having any luck getting jobs and their parents are not financial  stable. So because of this reason they decided  to turn to the use of drugs. They met a girl that gave them a free sample and it made them hooked on the drugs so they know starting selling drugs to make money for themselves.


SECOND IDEA

Our second idea would be that two friends were best friends then one of the girls got herself caught up in mess that she couldn't get out off and she owed people money. So for her to get out of this she started doing drugs and then she her friend found out what she was doing and didn't approve of it so she thought she would speak to someone about it instead she found out what she was doing they had a big fight and it doesn't end so well. 


THIRD IDEA 

Our third idea would be that one of the girls was secretly crazy and she didn't want anyone to be close to her best friend so every time that someone would get close she would go on a mad rage and kill them. The best friend finds out what she is doing and is scared that she is going to be next so she tries everything to get away from her , but she keeps coming back.

Preliminary Task & Evaluation







In this course work thriller we told a story about how a girl who owes money to a woman is being chased down by her because she isn't able to pay her back which resulted in her death.




This gif here shows the match on match action with her opening the door on the outside and shows her going inside

This gif here shows the shot/ reverse shot which is used for conversations or arguments between two characters and is very effective as it shows the emotions of both characters as they both talk.

This gif here shows the 180 degree rule bring intact and not being broken. We see both characters on the same sides of the character not being moved from their previous position therefore the audience do not get confused. 



This gif shows the eye line match. Where it shows the message on the phone then cuts to her looking at the message on the phone.



I think that we used and followed all the techniques that we could and i do not see anything wrong with the work.


The positives about this is that we were able to include all the editing techniques that were told to which is the main priority of this coursework. 


However what we could have done to improve this course work is the camera work that was done, other than that I think we did a good work seen as this is the first time
