Target Audience Research

Certification

Choosing Font

There are many different types of fonts used for thrillers. As the font need to relate to the thriller as well as attracting different audiences.
 The font we decided to use for our thriller title is freebooter Script. 

We thought that this was the most effective for our thriller as it is in red. Red is a significant colour as it is a sign of warning and danger. It gives the audience a head up as they should know that something wrong is going to happen in the film.

Thriller in the making: editing

This is a screen shot of the editing done after the rough cut towards the finished thriller.

Finding music

We used freeSFX to find the music for our thriller, so it wouldn't be copyrighted. We wanted ominous music so i wouldn't distract the audience from the action happening on the screen. 

Production logos

Animatic

Title sequences

The importance of title sequences especially in thrillers are that they include key elements that would appear in the film. It doesn't give the story line away although it relates to it. 

Saul Bass is one the greatest graphic designers in the 20th century. He was the master of film titles with collaborations with Alfred Hitchcock etc.

Rough cut of our thriller

Story Board

Our production company

We decided this would be a good production company logo. The words 'Happy Days' contrasts with the sad and dull picture that it is , this represents British rainy weather. As our production company is a small British independent one, that relates more to the production company logo. Although the red bench is the main focus of the picture which brightens it up the picture  and blocks out the grey background. This relates more to the words which Happy Days.
