How did you attract/address your audience?
I used a questionnaire to find out what people wanted from a
thriller film. I asked people of all age ranges and various backgrounds what
they prefer to see in a thriller film and what storyline and which settings
they preferred. I then decided that whatever genre of thriller was most popular
with people I would try and make a thriller in that genre. The two most popular
genres were crime thrillers and action thrillers so I have included elements of
both these genres in my opening sequence.
My feedback from questionnaires also suggests that music is
important in a thriller opening. I took this on board and thus used music as my
main method of creating tension in my thriller opening. Some people also
suggested that the killer’s identity should be kept hidden during the opening
sequence. They feel that this makes them ask questions and makes them feel the
atmosphere of the film.
