My Genre Decision

I came to the conculusion to choose Thriller as my genre for my two minute opening clip. I reasons behind my decision is that thriller allows me to have more opinions when filming. It doesnt require a certain location such as action and lage amounts of gore like horror. the opening can included elements to make suspenceful while being an action packed opener. Thrillers are also known for making a good story and allows cliffhangers. The reasons for not choosing horror was the waste of time to apply the special effects make up and blood. Another reason was the lack of group mates, since i decidied to work alone I dont have access to the amount of actors require to bring the film to life. The reasons for not choosing the action genre was due to the lack of actors. Many famous action films normally have a duo or a group of four actors. This would highly effect my film, in addition to not having a location to film at. My. action films are known to be predictable and the actors acting arent good at making it seem real. With the filming loactions of many films being out  in the wilderness or abandon places with wildlife, I cants include that element in my film. My editting skills are not good enough to fit a elephant on the screen and make it seem realistic. There for making my genre for my final task thriller. I see thriller as the mix of action and horror with out the murder and animals. I can teach my audience something brand new while creating a plot with twists and turns. One of my plans is to do a fake out and make the viewer think he or she has the ending down. By doing that I can then leave them on an epic cliffhanger. The whole point of this assignment is to capture all of the skills that I have learned and make a two minute entry to a film. I want my film to capture my viewer in a trap and keep them on their toes. I'm so exicited to be working on this project and have big dreams.
