Example Questionaires
These sample questionnaires show us that the majority of the people we asked were aged between 16-24 meaning that this fits in with our target audience for our film. It also shows us that what they expect from the beginning of a thriller is for it to have slow music and editing. They also want to be introduced to a few characters so they can get a feel for the film. For the setting of the film they expect it to be shot either in a Forest, Big house or hospital as these are usually shown as quite isolated places so that not many people would be around to witness anything that happens throughout the film.
Vox Pops
These are our vox pops which show's three different people answering our main questions. We asked these questions because they make it so we know how people feel about thrillers. They also tell us the key conventions of what people expect to see within this genre.

The silence of the lambs (1991) - own genre research
The silence of the lambs
We then see a character coming to the scene, as the person gets closer we can see that the person is a middle aged woman. We can see that she is climbing up a rope which means that she is putting herself in danger. Also we can see that she is alone which means that she is vulnerable to her surroundings. This shot of her climbing up the rocks is shot using a dolly/tracking shot to show the action more clearly.
The colours are mainly dark green, brown and blacks. This could reflect how she is feeling, meaning that she is feeling low and possibly depressed. It is also shot in a high angle shot to show that there is a higher authority present then her.
This is a close up of the woman where we can see her sweating. This shows her determination in the exercise that she is doing. She is running around on an assault course which isn't stereotypical of a woman as she is getting sweaty instead of shopping.
When the title comes up it is very bold and and is black with a white outline. The white could represent the purity of the girl whereas the black reflects the death of what is to come. This is also the same colour as the background of the image.
