A main thriller aspect we have planned to use in our
thriller openings is ambiguity. We want to portray the idea of ambiguity
through five character's body parts. During our product research we made the extension
to look at films other than thrillers to find wider ideas and further
inspiration therefore, researched the comedy "Breakfast Club". The
results of our audience research from our target audience "16-20"
year olds showed that 8/9 enjoy the genre of comedies therefore to respond to
our audiences preferred style we chose to take elements of this comedy, the
cast of five teenagers who are at first strangers to each other. Young adults
are also the main audience for franchisers such as "The Hunger Games"
in which there is a battle of the fittest between the characters; a theme that
we also feature in our film.
Another thriller element that we want to portray in our
thriller opening is a clinical effect. This idea reminded us of the horror
"Human Centipede". We researched this horror and saw that it related
to our ideas. The idea of a character acting in a doctor type role and the idea
of a group of people getting harmed were similar. We have chosen to include a
group of teenagers as our main characters - as in "Breakfast Club" -
who will ultimately have to fight for survival
We also decided to include match cuts within our sequence do suggest relationships between people and locations.Shot 8 matchcuts from the lead protagonists feet walking out of her house to Ben walking into the waiting room of the lab suggesting that our main character is also going to the waiting room.
