To give us an idea of we are intending to make when we are filming and editing our Thriller opening, we were shown in class past examples of thriller openings that past AS level students made. We were asked to critique them on several categories namely:
- Idea
- Cinematography
- Sound/Music
- Performance
We were also asked to comment on what we liked and disliked about them and also what grade we thought they would get.
This is very good example of a thriller opening and personally the best I saw out of those shown to me.
The idea of a boy who seeks revenge against a hitman to be quite interesting as it leaves an enigma, which I want desperately to be solved. The music used also adds to this already mysterious tone and the performance made the actor playing the hitman is almost perfect as he is the typical antagonist, cold, cunning and powerful.
This to me, was quite dull compared thriller openings I saw.
The idea of revenge was good although the way it was carried out was poor, the black and white scenes looked really amatuer and didn't match the tone of the cemetery scenes. I also disliked the fact that one pieceof music was used as it gets quite boring after a while.
