Being able to fully define what is deemed as being an 'original' media product is different - and depends upon people's personal tastes. I attempted to experiment with the Thriller genre depicting it with my opening - I wanted it to be unique and different. For example I chose very simple locations/ settings - with what seems to be basic shots - yet entice the audience as to the possibilities of what is actually happening. I used a variety of creative shots - different close-ups and varied editing such as slow paced - yet the increasing in the pace as tension builds emphasised the thriller aspects. I contrasted between the sound effects and silence to create an atmosphere - stopping in abruptly; I also did this with the moving images. Metaphorically the content was similar in the two (different) shots - where the bath scene is also similar to the lake - for obvious reasons. I believe that I was creative , provoking interest with a simple yet enticing mise-en-scene and locations and the contrasts of sound, silence and alternating footage.
