  • 1. Activity 1: In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms andconventions of real products? We have used many different media techniques in our thriller to incorporate genericconventions. For example, we used camera shots such as an establishing shot to buildup the tension in the scene when Michal was appearing from the horizon on his bike.The use of this shot created a sense of danger therefore incorporating a genericconvention. Similarly, we have combined dramatic music with movement in the chase scene tocreate a fast pace within the opening scene, hence creating a typical thriller mood. Inour research into other thrillers, we looked at chase scenes in thrillers such as driveangry. This influenced us to use some of the conventions used in this thriller.Therefore, allowing us to develop a thriller similar to a real product. Moreover, we have used lighting cleverly to create an eerie mood towards the endingof our opening scene. The red light connotes the dangerous environment aroundperson who has been kidnapped. Therefore enhancing our aim of developing a thrillersimilar to a real product. In conclusion, we have used many diverse types of forms and conventions of a realmedia product in our opening scene to create elements of a thriller.
