Elements used in thrillers

Below are images that suggest different types of characters used in thrillers. These images all show to have various aspects in common in which this case is the lightening, setting, characters,camera shots and also the plot of the film. These are shown to be significant fetchers that need to be applied when making thrillers as it sets the mood allowing the audience feel involved and excited in what is going to happen.

Lightening:

The lightening is based around dull but bright colours that has been reflected upon the characters face to show the expressions perceived and also giving a clear representation to the viewers that they are the main focus. The background of most of these shots taken have been blurred showing that it is not important and that the focus is applied on the subject which is often based around the characters. 

Camera Shots:

Most of the shots that have been used make it clear what the main focus is. Close ups have been used to show detail upon the characters face allowing the audience to see the expressions on there faces. We also see wide shots of the area in which the scene has been set that is shown to take place when the action appears mostly in unexpected places.

Setting:Most of the settings indicated below show to be placed in atmospheres where the character is alone and isolated. The setting is the most important element when considering a thriller as the setting allows us to generate a mood as shown below. If the setting is empty and is usually represented in cold colours then we will expect to see something terrible whist we continue watching.

Researching images of characters that are used in thrillers helped me generate an idea of what i will need to use within my group for it to be as successful as original thrillers. Whilst looking at these it had also made me realise that using costumes is also significant as it also generates the mood such as within the first image we see the characters costume reflects the feelings that have been perceived on her face to give the viewers the connotations that she is angry and is about to kill someone.
