Independent Research 22 Sept

Today you will need start researching independently into Thriller films. Using the check list and other resources I have given you need pick a task and start work on it.
Remember that by 30 Sept you need to have the following posts on your blog:

  •  Definition of the Thriller genre (including your thriller recipe)
  • Narrative Conventions (both specific to thriller films and more generic narrative conventions e.g. the three act structure, cause and effect, conflict)
  • Character conventions (both specific to thriller films and more general character ideas surrounding traits, goals, obstacles, choices. flat, round etc.) 
  • Typical themes/ methods/ ideas in thriller films
  • Technical conventions (camera, sound, editing, mise en scene)
  • The work done in class on Shutter Island
  • Group Presentation on a thriller opening
  • Initial ideas about possible thriller films
  • One other research task
You can use the work we did in class as a springboard for your posts but try to delve a little deeper and don't just copy and paste from my powerpoint!
