Ideas and guidance part 2



This video helped to remind, and teach us of the main ways to make a successful film. Combining all of the various aspects required in theory the finished production should be successful. The film outlines the importance of ;

- Fear factor
-Unique plot
-Have a good script
-Good crew
-Realistic actors
-Invest in the main 'villain' or 'monster' - film hangs on this
-Make a schedule
-Shoot the script
-Tense, frightening and creepy/scary

As well as video lessons and guidance, we were inspired by several directors whilst making our Thriller.

For example ;

Alfred Hitchcock - After watching both 'Pyscho' and 'The Birds' i picked up methods to build up tension and suspense within the audience. Hitchcocks clever use of black and white also temped the group to try a similar approach to give an eerie effect. Born in 1899 Hithcock's ideas revolutionised the film industry and gave the group many good ideas and techniques to making a good film.

Steven Spielberg - Creating films that dominated the market such as 'Jaws' and 'Jurassic Park' Spielberg was a huge player in the film industry and the methods and techniques he used helped us to develop our production and create the final piece.
