Thriller

Of all of the genres that we learned about in film the one that most interests me is the thriller genre. One of the reasons that I like the thriller genre so much is that it the excitement keeps me on the edge of my seat. I like this because it can create a feeling of excitement which allows me to be absorbed in the story. This is the main reason why I love Alfred Hitchcocks films. They all create some sort of suspense or anticipation during parts of the film. I appreciate the suspense created by uncertainty and excitement rather than fear. This is why I prefer action-thrillers, crime-thrillers, and sci-fi thrillers over horror. The fact that I am drawn to the thriller genre displays that I am intrigued by excitement but also tension and anticipation. Some of the directors that I would like to emulate would be Alfred Hitchcock, Quinten Tarantino, Denis Villeneuve, James Cameron, Ridley Scott, and Stanley Kubrick.

The biggest challenge that I faced in this project was making the plate. I wanted a particular look to the plate that was proving to be a challenge. I wanted the curve to go up and then out in a smooth and natural fashion. This was a little difficult to accomplish with the bezier curve because I was working with multiple curves in a slim area. It created difficulty because the curves were almost overlapping and made it hard to see which curve was which. I overcame this challenge through trial and error. I used trial and error by seeing what happened when one curve was adjusted and then I would undo that action. I kept doing this until I achieved the result that I wanted. That is how I overcame the challenge of forming the curves for the plate.

Why Music? Music is an essential part of film. It can be used to set the tone for a scene or to drive the action. When used correctly in conjunction with visuals, music can transform the emotional experience of a film. Some of the most memorable moments of a film are because of the score. Film scores can be used to build tension, fear, or any emotion. For this investigation I will be learning about how to create a film score. The Psychological Effect of Music In Film 1 during our study of film history we discussed what is known as the Kuleshov effect. The Kuleshov effect is an analysis of how the audiences interpretation of an image changes in relation to the next image. So if you have a man with a neutral face and you cut to a hamburger and back to the man he looks hungry. Similarly, music creates a tone for the visuals presented to the audience. This tone is what allows the audience to understand the emotions they are intended to be feeling while viewing the film. A grea...
