The main
characters in my sequence are an unknown killer, a blond women and a husband. I
left the identity of the killer unknown as it leaves the audience in suspense
and makes them want to know who it is so they are more on the edge of their
seats which will engage the audience more to.
I used a blond girl as it is conventional and stereotypical and engages the audience into my film as they are waiting for something to happen to her as blond girls are stereotypically known to be stupid and vulnerable. I used this as it is one way to subtly show that she is vulnerable without actually saying it. This then creates suspense as they are waiting for her to be killed or injured. The girl in my opening sequence appeals to the audience as women can relate to her situation and think about how they would be feeling in her situation. She also appeals to the audience as anyone who watches a thriller out of choice wants to see someone being murdered and they know from the start she is going to be the victim.
These characters appeal to my audience, people aged between 15-30, as the killer makes the audience put themselves into the victims shoes and empathises with their situation. This also appeals to the audience as they do not know when the killer will pop up which then creates suspense.

Your analysis of question 2 shows a minimal understanding of the way in which your thriller represents social groups as you have briefly stated why you have chosen your characters.
ReplyDeleteYou need to explain why in further depth and discuss gender and social groups more.
