-Figure 1 shows a summary of the answers of Two Main Questions i will be focusing on to form a suitable plot to my opening scene, from my questionnaire.
Figure 1
-These results show that the most popular topic for Psychological Thrillers to be based around is crime therefore a couple of ideas i have developed involve crime so that it is suitable for the target audience's likings. When it came to preferred conventions (things the film should include) of a psychological thriller "seeing the world around from one Challenged Individual's point of view" and "a story revolving around Crime" were the most popular. As i have already noted that my opening scene should revolve around crime, the other main aspect i am concentrating on when planning, filming and editing is the perspective of the film. For example, in this instance the film will seem to be filmed, and the story will seem to be told, from the main character's outlook. Examples of my first ideas which apply to this convention are 'Padlocks' and 'Disarray'. Storyboards of these two ideas are presented in the two previous blog posts.
-Figure 2 shows another question i have chosen to focus on because even though the answers aren't as clear as the other two, i can still take inspiration from the responder's answers.
Figure 2
-Clearly, the most popular answers to the question "Which film is your favourite Psychological Thriller? and Why?" were Silence of the Lambs and Shutter Island. Although "Mentally Challenging or disturbing" was not one of the most popular conventions in a previous question, it is implied that this genre is liked as the responses favoured Silence of the Lamb which obviously involves disturbing scenes. An idea i have based upon disturbing happenings is shown is at the bottom of my mind-map in a previous blog post. This idea is based on a man dissecting a brain in a eerie room. What i gathered from the favoured film Shutter Island is that the audience like intellectual film that confuse you. Furthermore Shutter Island is filmed around one character and the story is told from his point of view-this is the reasoning for my ideas 'Padlocks' and 'Disarray'.
