In what ways does your media product use,
develop or challenge forms and conventions
of real media?
Our sequence is a thriller. Normal
thriller conventions include
mysterious shots, which is what
we have in our science
sequence.
There is a lot of low key lighting used in
thrillers to highlight the mysterious nature of the
sequence. This is done in our opening in the
science sequence. This makes the audience
anticipate whats going to happen to the
character as its not actually clear at first.
Using a male protagonist adds to the use of thriller
conventions. Also, the mysterious nature of the detective
adds to the idea mysterious atmosphere in the beginning.
The sounds are loud and weary which also adds to the use of thriller
conventions in our sequence. Again the sounds make the audience
wait for more and want more information. The voice over also makes it
seen mysterious however gives a slight insight into whats happening
In an opening sequence, a setting and character is
introduced to the audience. In the opening to a thriller, the
setting is normally mysterious and has a hint of danger. this is
communicated in the science section as we have and
interesting setting and the props used make it look dangerous.
