Post production: Soundtrack of our thriller

Introduction: Soundtracks are important in thriller because they set the atmosphere and tone for the thriller. The soundtrack gives the audience an impression of what themes the film will associate with.
 The audience will be filed with tension due to the effective frightening sound. It is crucial for sound to be used at different times, this is because it is decisive in making the audience connected or disconnected to the film.

The conventional soundtrack of a thriller is that the soundtrack will contain features of sound that will create fear, tension and suspense. In addition, Non diegetic sound is used with our soundtrack this creates a atmosphere of fear creeping into the audience. However, the non-diegetic sound didn't have to be specifically soundtrack, it could have been voice overs.

Within our thriller we used diegetic sound to so that the audience could have an idea what is going on in the scene. In addition, we used non diegetic sound with the soundtracks, this was to create a atmosphere of tension amongst the audience as the antagonist was approaching the female victim in her bedroom.
For our sound the film that influenced us was psycho in terms of the use of non-diegetic sound as the antagonist is appearing to the female victim.


This Image shows the software we used to create the sound for our thriller production. The software we used to create our sound was Logic pro.

Conclusion: In conclusion, the soundtrack we created along with our other sound has made our thriller really conventional.

Post -Production: Audience feedback

Audience  feedback and Importance:

Audience feedback is comments you receive from people in your target audience on the film production you have produced. This is important because it set aims of what you need to improve for your next film production

Before the making of our thriller production we carried out a questionaire to carry out a research for our target audience to see their liking and dislikings within the thriller genre. The questionaire helped us to make our thriller film very conventional. The questionaire was our foundation to create our thriller around. For Instance, our thriller mostly highlighted the antagonist character  as in the questionaire most peole said they found the antagonist the most appealing.

Focus Group:

In my group we chose ken to take screen shots of the focus group, since he has natural talent of taking good pictures. This was beneficial for understanding of thriller conventions and film making because it tells us how film production work functions.

Positive feedback:
For our film production, we received positive comments:

"The sound really matched up well with the action that took place"- Sean aged 17

"The editing in this film was excellent it really created more anxiety with the action"- Dwayne aged 18

"The cinematography was top standard every film shot that was taken had a contribution to the action" -Katie aged 17

Negative feedback:

Unfortunately, for our film production we also receive negative comments;

"I was confused a bit by the editing for it didn't add any significance to the action"- Ryan aged 18

"The sound at times didn't match up well with the action especially in the flashback"-Brian aged 18

" Some of the cinematography didn't add any significance to the thriller"- Laura aged 17

These negative comments give our film production aims for our next film.

The audience feed back has been very beneficial for us as it has given us aims to achieve  and aims that we can enhance on for our next thriller production. Even though there were negative comments they were constructive at the same time. Therefore, these comments should motivate us for our next film production.

Evaluation 6) What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this media product?

Final: It's not over

Evaluation 4): Who would be the audience for your media product?

Evaluation 2) How does your media product represent particular social groups?

Evaluation: Question 3) What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

What media institution would you use to distribute improved from Rex997

Evaluation7) Loooking back at your premilinary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?

 preliminary task:

The preliminary task was a short 30 second clip that we were to film in preparation for the real production. The aim of this was to be introduced to the process of filming and editing. Another aim was to find who would be suited in a role within the thriller film production. Most Importantly, the preliminary task was used to reflect on and see what we could improve on in terms of cinematography and editing for the final product.

Video of the preliminary task:

  

Technical filming areas I have now improved in:                                                                                   Within filming, I am now better at shooting from a range of angels. This was evident when a low angle close up shot was taken of the female victim as she is walking home and there is emphasis on her foot movement. This provides more analysis for the audience and allows them to understand that she is walking home alone. I wasn't really confident in taking close ups and angles in my preliminary this was mainly because we didn't understand the importance of low angle camera shots, during a conversation.

 

 

Also, I am now better at shooting film movement. A tilt shot was used to view the male antagonist as he comes into the kitchen to murder the female victim. The film shot shows more emphasis on the male antagonist as he enters the kitchen. For the audience the camera movement will create more tension and suspense as the tilt shot makes him more intimidating and superior. Again, in my preliminary, I didn't really experiment with movements. The tilt we used was more focusing on where the 2 characters were walking on rather than them.

With editing, I have improved on using sound that is useful and appropriate to the scene. For instance, we used diegetic sound of rustling and breathing when the male antagonist approaches with the knife to murder the female victim. This use of the diegetic sound will make sense to the audience for they will hear dialogue from the antagonist that will contribute to the tension that has been created. In my preliminary, the sound we used didn't make any impact in any scene apart from natural sounds you expect to hear. This was because we didn't understand the importance of the use of sound.

Also, in editing, I have Improved the use of a reaction shot. In other words, I have made the use of a reaction shot more significant in our film production. A reaction shot is used when the female wakes up from a brutal dream(of the antagonist murdering her). For the audience, this will create a sense of relief from the tension they were having. But they are truly mistaken. In the preliminary, the reaction shot wasn't really valued as it was used only during conversations. We were not expansive enough with the reaction shot, in other words in other words the reaction shot didn't add any significance.

In our preliminary task we also lacked understanding in the importance of the use of background space in film scenes this is shown in our Image.

 

In our thriller, we eliminated unwanted background space when we filmed a mid-shot of the make antagonist coming into the kitchen to murder the female. This showed that we improved our knowledge on the significance of background space.

  ;                                                        Personal reflection:

The thriller was up to a good standard. The reason why I think it was is because it fulfilled conventions that a thriller is expected to fulfil. 

  

 I mostly enjoyed the editing that took place for the thriller production as we experimented for the  right sounds to use in this production. This was with the use of the software's final cut pro and logic pro.

Evaluation5):How did you attract and address your target audience.

Secondary research:

I used secondary research in order to help me attract and address my target audience. The reason is because secondary research helped me to identify the conventions that are used in a thriller to appeal to the target audience. For instance, secondary research helped me to identify the convention of a female victim with the colour of the clothes that she is wearing to connote her vulnerability.

Further from my research, I found the target audience of thrillers are people aged between 15-40, unisex, employed people, students or unemployed people. Also, the target audience are all ethnicities, it is not specific to one race.

The thriller audience enjoys conventions that are in the thriller genre, mainly the types of characters, especially the male anatgonist who is used to intimidate other characters in the movie and to be the person that the audience fears. Another convention, that is liked by the audience is the Iconography used. The iconography in thrillers is usually blood, weapons and money and all these conventions appeal to the audience into seeing what happens next.

The emotion that the target audience feel towards the thriller genre are tension, fear, excitement and suspense. These emotions among the target audience mainly occur when the action is taking place. Overall, the audience will have enjoyment in unique characters and plots that are twisted.
From my research, I decided that the target audience for my product should be:

Age/s: 15-40

Gender: Unisex

Ethnicity: Diverse

Occupation: Mainly students/employed and unemployed people

Hobbies/Interests: Socialising, watching thrillers and horrors, going out and being thrilled in many ways.

Attracting my target audience:

I designed a questionnaire to receive the expectations of my target audience and what they wanted for my media thriller product. The questionnaire results helped me to realise the elements and conventions that I needed to include within my thriller. This was good because the results were specific, relevant to my ideas and the feedback was from people I wanted to appeal to.


Four questions asked in my questionnaire:

One key question I asked was "What thriller character appeals to you the most out of a female victim ,antagonist and a protagonist? Most answers I received were for the male antagonist. This meant that I needed to make the male antagonist the main focus in my thriller film, to make sure that I was addressing my target audiences needs and desires.

Another key I asked was "What is your favourite sub-genre thriller? The options were out of psychological,crime,horror and action. The results showed that most people said that their favourite was psychological. This meant that I should use a psychological element within my thriller to appeal to the target audience and try to attract them.

Also I asked a key question of "What gender victim do you prefer?" between a male or female. The majority of the answers were in favour of a female becoming the victim. This means that I need to have a female as the victim, in order to make it more appealing.

Feedback from my target audience:

Positive: People in my target audience had enjoyed the thriller I made with my group here are the some of the positive comments I received:
"The thriller had carried out my expectations, in terms of making me excited but with fear at the same time. I found the characters very appealing in different ways".- Sean Mutiso 17 years old.
"The thriller lived up to the standards of the film genre, especially with the tension that was created"- Jordan 17 years old.

Negative: However, other people in my target audience had disappointing feedback to say about my thriller, here are some of the negative comments:
" In my opinion, the thriller was too typical and also it didn't create much tension as I had expected".- Samuel 18 years old.
"The narrative of the thriller was too complex for me, it was hard to follow the thriller, for it wasn't making sense".- Chloe 18 years old.



Focus groups:

These focus groups show the production and work of our thriller production in process.

Evaluation1): In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

THE TASK:

The task was to produce a 2 minute thriller opening, that fufills the conventions and expectations of it's film genre. This must be the result of the research and planning that we did before we started filming and editing.In additon, we had to use all of the micro-elements within our thriller productand ensure we were following conventions.

GENERIC CONVENTIONS OF A THRILLER:

In cinematography, conventions involve film shots,angles and movement. One convention, is a high angle which is used to show the inferiority of a female victim or a protagonist. Another convention for thriller within cinematography is the use of a low angle. Low angle shots is used to show the superiority of the antagonist during the film, it makes the antagonist more intimidating to the audience than the other characters. A close up shot is another convention as it is used to view  detail of Iconography and character etc. With editing, the generic conventions are slow paced editing which is used to build up tension amongst the audience. Fast editing, is a convention as it speeds up tension and suspense amongst the audience. In Mise en scene the generic conventions of iconography are gun, knife and blood. The types of characters are victims and antagonists.



GENERIC CONVENTIONS WITHIN MY THRILLER:



Cinematography: One convention that we used is a close up shot on the female victim. This will show the audience and give the impression that the girl has just had a disturbing dream, therefore showing the effectiveness of what this shot has on the audience. This uses and develops conventions because from my research I found close up shots that are used in existing thriller films create and influence the impact of any action that is taking place.

Editing: Slow paced editing, is mainly used to build up tension and suspense among the audience. This happens when the antagonist steps into the kitchen to murder the female victim. This will be effective in making the audience see what is going to happen next with the suspense that is building.

Fast paced editing is used when the female victim is attacked. This speeds up the action in the film and the tension within the audience as the victim is being murdered. This develops conventions.

Sound: Non diegetic sound is used in the thriller with the soundtrack. This gives the impression to the audience that the thriller would be haunting and the sound will have an influence in the tension that will later be created within the audience.

MES:

Costume: The main colours of the costume that we used were black and white, the victim wearing white while the antagonist is wearing black . This was to inform the audience the characteristics of the characters which the colours connote in the thriller. White will connote vulnerability and weakness of the female victim. Black will connote bad motives of any person.

Iconography:  The Iconography that is used in the thriller fits the expectation of the audience. A phone is used by the female victim to text the antagonist a message that is going to motivate him to murder her as a result of his obsession. This shows the significance of the mobile phone. This Iconography is used in the first movie of Scream where the girl Dru is being blackmailed by a masked killer on a phone. Even though, the phone has been used differently, it still has significance.

Knife, is another Iconography that is in the thriller used by the male antagonist. The knife will connote the bad and evil intentions of the male antagonists towards the female victim as he murders her or tries to. Similarly, in Scream the masked antagonist breaks into the house to kill the female victim. This develops conventions of the thriller genre.

Setting: The setting also fits the expectations of the audience in terms of convention. The setting is a house where the female victim is the only person living there. The house is isolated which is the reason why it fits with the conventions. The house is where the main action will take place making it significant. This shows the use of conventions.



CONVENTIONS OF A TARGET AUDIENCE AND OPENING CREDITS:

The target audience  like to get an emotional response that is being scared,anxious and frightened . In the case of thrillers, the generic convention will be a to appeal to an audience that is aged 15 and over. The reason for this age is because a target audience that is below the age of 14 will not be able to relate to themes of thrillers and they will also not be able to watch the content. This is what we took in consideration when we were making our thriller, to make sure our content used and developed that of the 15 certificate.



THE NARRATIVE CONVENTIONAL STRUCTURE THAT WE FOLLOWED:

The narrative theories we used for thriller were aristotle and barthes theories. The aristotle influence comes when there is a climax of the tension when the female victim is being tormented. The Barthes influence comes into play with the connotation of the vulnerability of the female character and the connotationsof the bad motives of the antagonist.

Planning:Pre- production paperwork

PRODUCTION SCHEDULE:

In the production schedule, it states what is going to happen in the film production. Everyone in the film crew must be given this to be aware of the time and dates for the film production. This will help the film to run smoothly.

Location recce:

This form is for the location for the filming, to see if the location is perfect for the filming and the plot to take place. It is crucial for everyone to have this form so that everyone is aware of the location that the filming is going to take place.

Release and Consent agreement:

This form is for the actors mainly to neogotiate the terms and agreements made by the film producers the form must be signed and given to every person that is involved or part of the caast. This form will influence the film to run smoothly as there will be no disputes over the agreement being signed or not.

LOCATION RELEASE:

The location release is document that is legal and it gives the film crew permission to film. The terms and agreements are made and dicussed between the film crew production and the local company,councilor people who gives us the permission to film there. Without this legal document, the film crew will be ilegally prohibited for filming without a signed approval to film. But with a signed location release the film crew can prove that they have the right to film on the location.

RISK ASSESSMENT:

This is the most important form that everyone in the film crew should have as the film crew will crucially have to be aware of the risks that could arise during the filming of the real production. Therefore, the risk assesment form will help the director and producers to make plans to avoid the risks from ocurring on the location, which could be be hazardous in reality. The risks of the location should be known by every person on the film crew.

Planning: Storyboard

STORYBOARD:
Storyboard is the graphical representation of a narrative that is used to plan the plot of a film. The storyboard shows each movement that will take place in a film production. This benefits our groups because it prepares us for what we aim to film in our thriller opening. The story board has information that is essential to our thriller opening. For example, the nuber of shots, the angle were filming from, number of scenes in the thrilller opening etc.

 

This storyboard helps us to give a visual aim of what we want to happoen in our thriller.
The main features it has is:
.Lighting
.Sound
.Costume
.Editing
.Props
.Location
.Camera shot
.Narrative description
.Actor

CONCLUSION:
The storyboard represents the ideas of every member within my group. This is the format that we are going to follow when we are filming.

Planning: Sound

PLANNING SOUND:

In our thriller, it is also crucial for us to plan the sound we are going to use for it will create the atmosphere and mood of emotion etc .

One of the sounds we are going to use diegetic sound to make it part of our thriller. The diegetic sound will be shown throughout the film, as is actual sound will be recorded in our thriller. One of the actual sounds that will be recorded is the heaay breathing of fear from the female character this shows the audience that she is scared and vulnerable making them relate to her.

Another sound, that will be used in our thriller is non-diegetic sound. Non-diegetic sound will be used as we plan to use sound effects to create more tension amongst the audience especially. It will; be specifically used when the female character/victim opens her eyes from her tormenting nightmare. It will also create a cliffhanger and reminds the audience that it is only a dream. Non diegetic sound also creates connotations that are different and makes the audience anxious for the next scary scenes that are coming.

Soundtrack will be used to influence and enhance the theme in the thriller to raise the level; standard of fear, mainly amongst the audience.

Planning: Character representation

CHARACTER REPRESENTATION:

Character representation gives the audience more of an insight into the narrative, which is the reason for it being useful in the film production. In order for a film to be conventional to it's genre it is crucial for representations of a character to meet the audience's expectation within that genre.

Name:Unknown

Age:15+

Character Role: Victim

Gender Stereotype of role: Female and Beautiful

Costume: Light coloured normal clothes/Pyjamas

Hair and Make-up: Simple/Normal, Natural, Straight hairstyle

Body language and facial expression: Small/average size, Physically weak.
 Usually portrays a emotion of fear     
Represented as: Vulnerable, Inferior, and a beautiful character

Role within the narrative: To be tormented by the anatgonist in the thriller.

The audience will be in fear for this character as she is being tormented in her home. For they can relate to this female victim/character.

Name: Unknown

Age:15+

Character role: Antagonist

Gender Stereotype of role: Male

Costume: Dark normal clothes

Hair and make up: Natural.

Body language and Facial expression:  Strong-physique
                                                                Evil looking

Represented as: Intimidating, Superior

Role within the narrative: To torment the female victim inside her home.

The audience will be in fear of this character as he is tormenting the female character. Also, at the same time the audience will also be showing dislike towards this character (male anatagonist) as well.

As you can see, there are two characters in total within the thrilller production, This analysis of the roles for both charactders helps me more to understand how the narrative is going to play out. In additon, this would benefit the audience in understanding the narrative and characters much easier. This analysis will help my group to think about our characters more carefully and to see how we can improve them in our thriller. My group will now know how the characters should look and act in the film production, due to this analysis.

Planning: Mise en Scene

MISE EN SCENE:

As I explained in one of my earlier posts, mise es scene is setting,lighting,body language, facial expression, costume and Iconography.

MIS ES SCENE IN MY THRILLER:

In my 2 minute thriller, mis es scene will be crucially used every time and to make conventional to a thriller.


LIGHTING:
.Natural lighting  will be used when the girl arrives home from work. This will help convey the atmosphere and the mood that is taking place for the audience to watch. Also, lowkey lighting will be used when the antagonist is introduced in the thriller, this is used to make the antagonist make more intimidating to the audience as well as the film.

SETTING:
.The setting will be a Isolated house where the female character lives by herself. We chose this setting because it is very convetional to a thriller, since it is a Isolated location .The female character is living by herself,making the audience fear for her.

BODY LANGUAGE/FACIAL EXPRESSION:
.The body language of the female character will associate with fear and vulnerability, therefore her body language will be tensed up as she fears for her safety since she is physically vulnerable. Her facial exppression will be similar in terms of her fear, her face will portray a emotion of fear to the audience that are fearing for her as she sees the antagonist. As for the antagonist, the body language will portray intimidation to the audience as well as the female character, with the way he stands in the female character's bedroom . In other words, the body language of the antagonist will associate with their character through Intimidation. Facial expression of the antagonist will be a expression that strikes fear into the audience as well. It will be portrayed when he's in the girl's bedroom and when he stands in the kitchen of the female character.

COSTUME:
. The costume of the female character will be clothes of bright colours or white to connote her mental and physical vulnerability and innocence, in other words it will associate with the other mise es scenes that are being portrayed in the thriller.
 .As for the antagonist, he will have a dark costume in order to connote his dark motives and to portray his intimidation to the female character and the audience.

ICONAGRAPHY:
. The Iconography that we will use will help determine the action that happens in the thriller. For instance, when the girl has the keys to open her front door it is clear to the audience that the action will take place in the home within the 2 minutes. The Iconography will influence tension amongst the audience, to summarize the point  I am making on our use of Iconography and the impact that we intend it to have.

Planning: Editing

EDITING:

In our thriller, editing as well as cinematography will also be crucially used.

 We will use fast editing when the female character is seen and attacked by the antagonist this is in order to build up tension amongst the audience as well as suspense. Slow editing will be used when the female character falls to the floor this makes the fall more dramatic towards the audience, meaning that more tension and suspense is created.

A fade to black editing will be used when the viewing target audience sees the antagonist, this creates a good effect on the film, while it will create more suspense and anxiety amongst the audience.

In addition, a reaction shot will be used when the female character first sees the antagonist, this is for the audience to view her vulnerability throught the emotion she shows on her face. Most Importantly, it will influence a chilled response from the audience.

Lastly, a shot reverse shot will also be used to show the full view of the attack and torment, tension and fear between the antagonist and the female victim, creating more suspense among the audience.

Planning: Cinematography

PLANNING CINEMATOGRAPHY:

A close up shot will occur in the thriller when the female victim opens her eyes. This is because we want to show the audience that the female character has been having a nightmare making them think that the female character will be safe but that is only for a split second.

Also, extreme close up shot will be taken of the glass as it shatters to pieces to show the affection of the glass and it creates more fear and tension amongst the audience. This will enhance the audience's thought that the female character is in great danger, as the extreme close up of the glass shattering will represent the result of the

 In addition, a tilt shot will be taken of the female character's body to show that she is vulnerable this shows the audience that there is a great chance that the girl will come to harm due to her physical vulnerability.

 Further more, a mid shot would taken of the anatagonist standing outside the window of the female character this is in order for the audience to be introduced to the a new character that they will be unsure of therefore creating more tension.

A point of view shot will be used will be used when the victim wakes up from her nightmare, this will be used to petrify the audience with what the victim sees making them Imagine that their the female character in the film.

Planning:Opening scene narration

OPENING SCNEN NARRATION:

Our opening scene is of the thriller genre, that is based on a psychological element(sub-genre).

In the narrative, a girl will be going back home appearing to have a normal day(to the audience).There will be a lot of use of cinematography, as different film shots will be on the girl as she is walking home. As well as the sound which will be natural, with the sounds of shoes and wind when she is walking home.

The use of iconography will occur, when the girl arrives home. The girl enters house, that is in a Isolated street. At this point, she is the only person in the house. The audience would feel tension, for it is conventional in a thriller for a suspected female victim to be home alone, before harm comes to gher. So far, a realistic element has been shown portrayed in this 2 minute thriller opening. When the girl goes to bed, the audience will realise that she has dumped her boyfriend through a phone text, texting "It's over". A extreme close up shot will be shown of the phone text, to make more tension amongst the audience for the girl's safety.

Afterwards, the female character goes to bed, she then wakes up for a drink of water, in her kitchen. But as she takes her glass, she sees a haunting figure staring straight at her, this causes her to scream and drop her glass.When the glass drops, the girl wakes up and realises it was a dream to her relief and there will be less tension amongst the audience at this point feeling that the girl will be safe. Suddenly, the same haunting figure appears right in her bedroom making her scream fo her life... Lowkey lighting will be used on the haunting figure to make it more intimidating to the audience.

The audience would be terrified for nthe character as they will not view the continuation. The audience will also suspect the boyfriend she dumped, for there is no other logical reason for the girl to be suddenly tormented.

Planning:Final Idea

Our Final Idea:

The Idea my group is going to pursue is a thriller opening that has the sub-genre of psychological. The narrative

NARRATIVE:A girl is coming back home from work appearing to have a good normal day, until she dumps her boyfriend through a phone text.She clearly has no regrets about it as she goes home,  changes,eats and goes to bed. She then wakes up to have a drink of water downstairs, but as she opens the fridge she turns and sees a dark haunting figure she screams, when her glass drops she wakes up. To her relief it was only a dream but then she when she sits up in bed she find the same haunting figure right in her face which makes her scream again...

 Title: "It's never over"

Sub genre: psychological

Characters: Female victim,  Male antagonist.

Narrative structure: Aristotle and Barthes

MES:

Location: House
Iconography: Glass, keys,Phone
Costume of characters: Normal clothes with bright colours. (For the female character)
                                       Dark hoodie(For the male anatgonist)
Lighting: Natural lighting, Lowkey lighting
Body Language of key characters:
Female Victim: Small, physically weak, vulnerable
Male anatgonist:Physically strong, Intimidating

Advantage of this Idea: This is a simple narrative, that could easily be acted out by 2 people. Also, it would be easy to find a location for this thriller opening.

Disadvantage of this Idea: Actors may lack commitment to this film production. We may not be granted permission for the location we intend to film in. This naarative may be too typical for a audience to watch.

 This is my group's final Idea.

Planning: Premilinary task

Premilinary task;

PURPOSE:

The purpose of the premilinary task was for us to be introduced to the aspect of filming. In terms of cinematography and editing.

SCENARIO:

 The scenario we created was 2 students that are having a conversation about school work, with one of them being stressed and depressed due to deadlines coming up.  

GROUP ROLES FOR THE PREMILINARY TASK :
I had the group role of being the cameran for this premilinary task, I used different shots to film eanch scene in the premilinary task. This means that for the real production I am 99% likely to have that same role of being the cameraman, doing the film shots.

Ken had the role of being the editor of the premilinary task. With the use of final cut pro, Ken was able to put each film shots in order and make the video end on the amount of second that was assigned to us. Since he achieved the task of editing for the premilinary task.

Abdullah and Javel both acted in the premilinary task, but for the real production Javel will be the director and location manager and director. While, Abdullah will be the storyboard planner and producer.

DIFFICULTIES:

The difficulties in the premilinary task was that were pushed for time,  In other words we had to finsh filming within the short amount of time we were given. Also, we had to make our video land on the amount of 30 seconds, this was difficult because while making the video land on the assigned amount of seconds we had to delete sections where perfect aspects of cinematography was shown, therefore not much good use of cinematography would be shown in 30 seconds.

BENEFITS:
 The premilinary task has been beneficial for it has given us knowledge of how to use cinematography, everyone in the group has taken part in learning and gaining experiecne of use in filming.
