Questionnaire

These are the initial questionnaires we created to find out basic expectations from a thriller, it uses both a combination of closed and open questions. We also used a variety of different ages and genders to get a good variety of answers to our questions.

Our Thriller Idea...

In todays lesson, we decided our aim was to come up with a final idea for our thriller. Coming away from our original thought of a 'horror thriller', involving a possessed girl, we came up with the concept of a man (and maybe a woman) in different places waking up to a world that has been deserted. At the end of the opening we picture a phone ringing to leave it on a cliff hanger...

Names Decision

For our thriller, we were going to use the idea of a little girl, but we decided it would be difficult to come up with an original idea. Yesterday, we decided on a different concept and now that our idea has changed we started to think of names to call the film. Our favourites are "astray" and "extinct". We're yet to decide, opinions?

Update (26.01.2015):
We are deciding to rate our thriller 15. This is because our idea so far means we won't have any sexual references or gore. However, there will be  moderate violence and strong language. The idea itself is quite psychological, and so it would not be suitable for a younger audience. The use of the 15 age rating means that we haven't limited our audience completely.
