Thriller introduction

Thriller is a genre of fiction in which tough, resourceful, but essentially ordinary heroes are pitted against villains determined to destroy them. Part of the appeal of thrillers comes from not only what their stories are about, but also how they are told. High stakes, non-stop action, plot twists that both surprise and excite and audience, settings that are both vibrant and mysterious, and an intense pace that never lets up until the climax.
In our first lesson to the thriller genre we looked at a lot of Alfred Hitchcock openings and how he presented them, he used camera angles, sound, and lighting to make a staring that is tense and buts the audience on edge. We then looked at other film openings such as “se7en” to get started on our thriller opening reviews.
