What is a thriller?
Due to the oncoming months of the brief set to create a thriller based opening sequence to a film, i have researched what the genre thriller actually is.
From what i have read and researched a thriller is a film that is to promote intense excitement, suspense and a high level of anticipation. The aim of a thriller is to keep the audience on the edge of their seats, to raise the tension towards a big climax at the end. The tension is raised when often the main character(s) is placed in a situation that the audience would be frightened in themselves.
Thrillers are most often about criminals, stalkers, murderers etc. That the audience would find abnormal and frightening.

Essay Rome
In a few previous lessons my media class has been studying the film title: Rome. Mrs Banks set the task of giving us a practice essay for the exam ahead to prepare us. We had watched the first four minutes of the opening sequence of the film around 4-5 times writing notes on the seperate sections to gain marks: Mise en scene, Editing, Camera/Movement, Lighting/Sound.
The task was then set to write the essay up to practice for the exams ahead.
If You would like to see the following practice paper, do not fret to ask.
