Sound in my thriller (Miss Begum)

Sound in my thriller (Miss Begum) - Sound Planning - Sound is important in films because it is a micro element that provides atmosphere within a scene, and can cause a desired audience response. I believe it is important to think about the sound, especially in thriller films because it can help to build tension within the film, and provide the audience with an understanding of what is going on in the scene, or what to expect. Non-diegetic sound: Is represented as coming from the a source outside story space. Digetic sound: Can be either on screen or off screen depending on whatever its source is within the frame or outside the frame. Off-screen sound: for example footsteps of someone/killer who is approaching the scene to kill… The sound I plan to use in my thriller consists of the following: 1. (Non- diegetic) - Sound will be used in my groups trailer although the music is heavily related to the music that plays before the man attacks is only heard by the spectators viewing the film and not by the characters the man is about to occurrence. - Narrator's commentary - Sound effects which is added for the dramatic effect - Mood music - On Screen Sound - On screen sound is similar to (Diegetic sound). It is a sound that you can see what characters or object where it is coming from, for example in 'Transformers Darkness of the moon' the fighting scene you can see that the changing of ammunition and the noises of the gun shots are coming from the robots through out the duration of the film. - Off Screen Sound - Off screen sound is the opposite, it is where you cant see it where it is coming from. But you can hear it at the opening scene. It is existing or occurring sounds outside the frame of a movie or television screen, for example if the camera is on and you are walking down the road talking on the video that you are creating, and someone scream in the background. -Conclusion - Researching into the sound, that i'm going to use in my thriller has helped me a lot to decide to find what technique i'm am going to portray on the audience that watches my thriller opener. It has given an insight on what types of sound would i like to work with also where they should be during the hole opening start to the end.

- Cinematography Planning (Miss Begum)-

- Cinematography Planning (Miss Begum)- Cinematography is important in films because it helps the director pick shots to make the audience feel in a particular way. It also captures what’s going on in the scene in a way that causes fear in thrillers. I believe it is important to think about the cinematography, especially in thriller films because it is important to make your audience feel scared and show what’s going on. The cinematography I plan to use in my thriller is the ‘high angle’ this makes the actor or the actress look weak during the film (Small and vulnerable) also the ‘Low angle’ this can make the actor or actress (Dominant and strong) the director would use this shot to make the audience feel in a certain way. 1. (Close-up) will be used when the director wants to bring tension between the audiences, For example having a close up of the killer. I have chosen to use this because it causes a lot of fear on the audience this is conventional to the thriller genre because it is allowed to have this type of material during the film, E.g. Death, Killers and mind games.

2. (Extreme long shot) contains a large amount of landscape. It is regularly used at the beginning of my scene or a film to establish general location (setting). This is also known as an establishing shot.

3. (Long shot) covers a complete view of my characters. From this shot, viewers can take in the costumes of characters and may also help to reveal the relationships between my characters.

(Can use one type of cinematography more than once, e.g. Close-up, just discuss its use for the different action?) Planning: Editing Planning (Miss Begum) Editing is important in films because it plays a big part in them for example; slowing down a clip brings excitement between the audiences. I believe it is important to think about the editing, especially in thriller films because it brings excitement during the film for example, when someone gets shot the editor will then edited the raw clip to make the audience shocked. Some of the conventional uses of editing in thrillers are (Fade Out): A shot that starts at full exposure and gradually fades to black. The editing I plan to use in my thriller consists of the following:

1. Slow paced editing will be used when the director wants to slow down a clip to bring tension between the audiences. I have chosen to use this because it has a lot of effect on the views for example, it the actor or actress was to jump of a building I would or the director would use that clip to be slowed down. This is conventional to the thriller genre because when the victim is running away from her or is his killer they slow it down to make it look like the killer it catching up.

2. (Montage) Scenes whose emotional impact and visual design are achieved through the editing together of many brief shots. The shower scene from ‘Psycho’ is an example of montage editing.

3. (Rough cut) the editor's first pass at assembling the shots into a film, before constriction and improving occurs.
