Thriller opening : creative process 1

Juxtaposition of themes: Relaxation/Thriller
Initial ideas: We decided to make a thriller around the idea of a serial killer and a victim using the tropes of a crime thriller and also some of our own ideas to create originality.

we made some notes and brainstormed our ideas/ drew out some potential frame shots

we want to base our thriller at a spa/sauna, somewhere which represents relaxation and peacefulness which will contrast with the death and the killer's motive. A spa has many elements that we can play with and incorporate into the thriller such as: steam/lockers.

We also made an aesthetic board which shows the type of mood/tone and lighting we want to portray in the thriller. This includes some pictures of the sauna and images from a video that is filmed underwater where the camera is angled towards the light. We want to represent quite an abstract series of short clips and is open up for audience interpretation. For example, the underwater image is quite blurred and shaky so we don't know which way the light is coming from but could also mean that the victim is literally going into the light.
