EVALUATIONIn what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms

and conventions of real media products?

• This picture from our opening sequence fits the conventions of a thriller film. This fits the conventions of a thriller film because it portrays a mystery person wearing a black hoody however we can only see the back of them. The mystery person is wearing black and black symbolizes an air of mystery, the hidden, the secretive and the unknown which is what this character fits into. Another way this fits its convention is; we cannot see the persons appearance leaving the audience to wonder who this person could be creating ambiguity.This also creates an enigmatic scene as we know this person is a villain who needs to be unveiled.

• This picture fits the thriller convention as it’s the very first scene and the character is running in the dark. She is running through a dark corridor and darkness absorbs negative energy which creates a gloomy atmosphere.This portrays her running away from danger which automatically informs the audience it is a thriller film. We can also tell from her face that she is not at all content with her current situation and that something drastic must have occurred creating ambiguity as well as an enigmatic scene. This creates mystery as the audience are not aware of why she's actually running which engages the audience even more as it leaves them thinking of possible reasons why.
