Our Refined Narative

As a group we have decided that our thriller opening sequence will have a sub-genre of action with mild horror aspects, such as the murder that is witnessed. We have decided to portray this through by having our sequence dimmly lit with diegetic sound, giving the viewer an eerie feel. As our opening sequence draws to a close, the witness is back in his home thinking he is safe until he sees a masked figure (the murderer) in his mirror. The scene them cuts to black with the sound carrying on with a scream from the witness as the 'Hunted' title logo appears on screen. This cuts out the elements of a horror as you don't see the murder of the character that has just been seen but you have questions as to what happened making it fall into the Thriller genre. Our story progresses after the opening sequence as the main character escapes and tries to find out what happened upon knowing that he is being hunted by the murderers.
