Evaluation Part 1

The conventions of a thriller genre are crime at the core of the narrative which leads to murder most of the time,a complex narrative structure, with false clues and sometimes resolutions.Also thrillers they always have extraordinary events happening in an ordinary situation, thrillers show themes of identity usually too so they give you an idea of who is the antagonist or protagonist. Titles often reflect on an aspect of an antagonist/protagonist's psychological state.  In our thriller we used many different thriller conventions such as a crime happening in our thriller of someone about to be murdered,this recaps back to crime at a core of the narrative which leads to murder, we have used this convention of a thriller very well as the music builds tension to the time when someone gets murdered.

Also in our thriller we give many different clues as to what is going to happen e.g. psycho having a secret pathway to where the innocent person is going. In this thriller there is also extraordinary events happening in an ordinary situation as an innocent person is at the park being watched without noticing and in our thriller we show the identity of the different characters as the psycho is wearing a long black jacket which shows elements of power. Our thriller is similar to the film when a stranger calls so therefore these screen shots show the similarities of walking through the door not knowing that you are being watched or followed. When a stranger calls influenced me because it shows you how stalking can affect a person and how it always turns out to be bad as the innocent people are not aware of it so therefore they are in trouble and they don't even know it yet until the stalker strikes.

In this thriller what is different is that the antagonist doesn't look scary at all so therefore the audience  wouldn't expect him to be the bad guy as he doesn't look like one. We used this idea because in the film the audience may know who the bad guy is from the beginning but the characters in the film wouldn't as he just looks like a normal person in the street so therefore he wouldn't be suspected at all, this is very smart because it shows the audience that he may get away with his crimes which would make them watch it more so they can find out if he's going to get caught or get away with all the murders/crimes his committed but he is wearing black which symbolizes dark and mysterious.
