It then shows clips of a man and a few animals in what appears to be a lab. The sequence also focuses on words that were written by the man on paper. At the very beginning, there were a series of comic pages which tells us that the movie may be an adaption to the comics. We can conclude from these images that the man is performing experiments on these animals for a theory he may have. Based on the words written on the papers that were ...

Later on, it introduces some of the other characters. It builds the moment by showing background events that lead to the appearance of the next potential main character.  The first clip of the man speaking to the girls can allow us to assume that the man has some sort of psychological disorder. The way he is acting all calm and friendly in this situation tells us that whatever his issue is will be part of the main plo...

I came to this website to learn more about thriller movies. There are so many great things to learn on this website from not only movies and tv shows but also video games and student projects. On this website, you can also watch the designers being interviewed which is really cool and helpful. There weren't too many designers for a thriller on this website bu with what it had was enough. After looking at thriller at looked at some other genres such as comedy and action. I also got curious and looked at the video games section. There wasn't too much in the video game section though compared to the other sections. I was here to mostly just research thriller but I ended up looking at more than just that and it was fun to learn about other genres.

Extraction is about someone trying to save a boy's life because he had been kidnapped. The boy had disappeared just like in our film where the mother had disappeared on the three kids. Our movie can compare to Extraction because it's all about the three kids trying to rescue their mom. Movies like these gives you more ideas for what to film in the future and better understanding of things. This is a really great movie to watch if you love triller movies. I feel like this is a mix between thriller and action with all the fight scenes and gun fire but then again, most thriller movies are like that.  The fight scenes to this movie were amazing with the knife fights and the gun fights. This movie is one of my favorites from 2020. I really liked how at the beginning the main character made an action-packed entrance where he jumped off a cliff into the water and stayed down there for a while. There are a lot of unexpected twist to this movie and I like that about it. It's like ta...

What elements of the genre that you chose to base your final task on does this movie have?  For one, this film is a thriller like the movie we plan on filming. The first 2 minutes of 6 Underground grabbed the audience’s attention for sure. By the end of those two minutes, I definitely would want to keep watching.

The quick scene changes and clips were really cool because they added to the anticipation of the audience. •What elements of the ge...

This is an embedded Microsoft Office presentation, powered by Office . For this assignment, we were asked to choose and research a genre of our choice. This project was made to explain the different aspects of the genre we chose. We were then asked to make a presentation on the said genre, where we would show the information we got from our research. The genre researched here was a comedy. At the time, the reason we chose this genre was that we thought that comedies had a lot of film aspects. compared to other film genres, comedies were able to use the characteristics of any other genre and would still be seen as a comedy. In the PowerPoint, we mentioned types of film lighting and camera angles and movements. Generally speaking, comedies used all types of lighting and camera angles.

Pitch 1. A groom sets out to track down a bounty hunter after his bride is killed at the altar.  Pitch 1. Three siblings come home from school to find their beloved foster mother missing. The reason we came up with these two pitches is that we decided that we wanted a thriller or mystery. The first pitch was just a random idea that came up while brainstorming. Since we wanted a thriller or mystery, it was a little harder to think of any other idea that didn't involve those two genres. Those genres made it easier for us because we thought they may have caught the viewers' attention better. We wanted the two minutes we were going to film to have an element of mystery. We wanted the viewers to be able to create their own scenarios based on what they've seen. Ultimately, we chose the second pitch, where the kids came home to their missing mother because it was the most convenient for the three of us. we wouldn't have to spend much money on things like costuming and props. A...

Hi! My name is Esther Ariseloye, a sophomore attending Fort Lauderdale High School. Fort Lauderdale High For this project, I will be working with Isabel V. and Jose R. I chose to work with these two because of the Corona Virus Pandemic. It's more convenient to work with people I know rather than the other students, which I've never met or hardly know. I think working with someone is better than working alone in my opinion. Working alone would be a little more challenging for me because I don't have a strong creative process. I believe that working with other people would help when coming up with ideas for our film. I also think that more people just means more eyes to point out mistakes or factors of the film that needs improvements. Another reason is that I haven't been able to meet many people, other than my family,  since the pandemic started.  Virus This film was an opportunity to change my setting and finally get outside of the house. This assignment makes up a hug...
