question 1

My OTS followed a large number of conventions demonstrated by some of the sequences we watched and analysed. 

One of these conventions acquired in our film was to do with the 
credits shown in myOTS. During the credits I tried to make the main characters known first by the audience, which portrays them as the main characters within the film. Our main character was seen straight away as he was dragged in but he was covered to keep the audience wanting to know who he was, this will make them want to carry on watching the rest of the film. 

The title of our film was also larger for emphasis which is done by many other thriller films such as 'The Dark Knight' which we did for our prelimarly task. 

We thought of the idea seen in many of the thriller films I analyzed as where they used pan shots commonly on a group of people the audience is interested in, we used it on locations of importance combined with a high angle. 

Furthermore while many thriller films zoom out or in of locations so the audience may focus on an object or person of interest during the film and our film applied and developed this idea on focusing on a character of interest and zooming out of them so, while it in the beginning shows barely any of the character and they are shown to be mysterious, the zoom out slowly unravels the character to the audience and their intentions.
