Influence for our Thriller opening Sequence

Requiem for a Dream 


The techniques used in this film we like and think work well for our thriller are; 

  • Parallel Editing 
  • Split Screens 
  • Fish eye effect
  • Time lapse
  • Blurred shots
  • High angles shots 
  • Extreme close-ups of the face

All of these techniques would connote the thriller genre, and would give subtle hints in our opening sequence to the rest of the film, e.g close-ups of the face suggesting that she is taking something, and how it is changing her appearence (especially the eyes and the close-ups representing what the drugs are doing)
