The Initial Idea we had for our thriller was based around a murder. As a group, we thought about the conventions of this genre and what we typically expect from one when we see it. The idea of someone running through a deserted location came into play and we decided this matched the expected criteria well. A chase scene creates excitement and suspense for the audience so we thought this would be a good start to the sequence. It was decided that the murderer would stay anonymous as although it ended up as an obvious murder, it ensured there was still a sense of mystery and allows the rest of the film to develop and unfold who did it and why. We discussed several methods of how the murder would happen, the location, clothing, props, dialogue and camera angles. Our initial plans changed slightly as well due to difficulties with the location. We expanded gradually from the starting block of what a murder involved and had to work on more detailed ideas along the way. We also drew inspiration from "No Country For Old Men" which we had viewed in class, for example, the countryside location and the costume and props.
