What ways dose your media product use, develop or challenge forms conventions of real Media products?



My Thriller falls under he conventions of a Thriller, because it contains many aspects as a Thriller such as an aura danger, unexplained moments, a boy in fear and a untold mystery that need solving. My Thriller's theme is suspense and unknown. It is told through the eyes of the main character Kayleigh who is baby sitter, who is also the Thrillers protagonist, leading us through the story's lines. We have no human antagonist within the Thriller, but we do know someone has kidnapped the boy. kidnapping is a suitable start for a Thriller because it offers different types plots to allow the story line to flow further. Questions that will hit the audience whilst watching are 'Who is the kidnapper?''Did the boy leave on his own?''Did the boy really exist?'. The last question brings the protagonist mental state into doubt and is further put into question in the bedroom scene. In the Thriller we see the room, however we don't see the boy in sight, but we know he was in his room as his mum (me) sent him into his room well upstairs. The content suspense and plot twists make our Thriller true to its genre. Using this gives our thriller the original of most thrillers. Films that have influenced us is 'When a stranger calls' and 'Flight plan'. we used some of the clips from When a stranger calls as it fitted in well with our thriller.
