Thrillers! :O

Our group have decided to do our opening of a film to the genre of thriller, we choose it as we all enjoy the thriller genre and thought that it will allow various and interesting camera shots, we have also studied thrillers in detail and we are very knowledgable about them. We are also very interested in doing a hybrid of Tte thriller/horror genre.

introducing ... My Group

The people i shall be working with in the next few weeks in order to do my project are the Lovely Lucy Smith and the Just as beautiful Jessica Norris. Jessica Norris is very artistic and i hope this will bring to the group lots of ideas about art and will propel our creaitvity. Lucy Smith is very dramatic and will hopefully bring to the group plenty of ideas and again creativty and help with the script! and i am really looking foward to working with them.
