Powerpoint

We have used powerpoint to help with our thrillers. This helped us to talk and explain our ideas to our group and our class when we had to pitch our ideas. Above is one of the pages when we were creating this powerpoint, we talked about the location, main plot of whole film, characters in it and the 2 minute sequence.

This is our powerpoint that we used to pitch our ideas. When we were talking through our ideas I think it made it clear which ones we liked and which ones we weren't to keen on. Our first idea is called 'underwater'. One thing that we decided to do whilst talking was not to make it supernatural and just make it a psychological thriller. I was not keen on the supernatural idea at the beginning as I didn't think that that would make it a good thriller, and that it would be must more thrilling if it was to do with the mind instead of the supernatural super powers affect. Our second idea was to base it on the news story 'man jailed for faking own death'. When we were talking to the class we decided not to show the man walking past his own death as a) this would make it too obvious, b) because it wouldn't be realistic as if it was true he would not risk getting himself caught. Also by talking through the idea we decided how we needed to talk more about what the main plot was going to be as we had just focused on our 2 minute sequence instead of the whole film.
Our third idea was Human Artwork, this was an idea I quite liked but I feel we should have not shown the meat and that we should have just made it look like a normal artist but make it suspenseful by going really close to everything and have music quite has an eery and thrilling aspect to it. I think we could have done it not very gawry and more about the psychological problems of the artist. This would have quite a thrilling aspect to it. Our fourth idea was about a man collecting valuables from the women he has killed. We felt this was a good idea, but the eBay was not, as the reason a murderer would keep the possessions is to keep the power he felt when he took those womens lives.
