Storyboard


after deciding to do a Crime Thriller genre for our preliminary film we made a storyboard. because we couldnt find a camera which was availiable at the time we scanned in the best copy of the storyboard we had.

Tuesday 2 March 2010

Yesterday i was researching the genre in which my group of Me, Elias, Jack and Ben B are doing. we will be attempting a crime thriller. so i foudn out a definition with some key features and some films along with directors of said films.

Crime thriller: This particular genre is a hybrid type of both crime films and thrillers that offers a suspenseful account of a successful or failed crime or crimes. These films often focus on the criminal(s) rather than a policeman. Crime thrillers usually emphasize action over psychological aspects. Central topics of these films include murders, robberies, chases, shootouts, and double-crosses are central ingredients. Some examples include The Killing, Seven, Reservoir Dogs, Inside Man, and The Asphalt Jungle.
Directors -
Se7en-David Fincher
Reservoir dogs – Quentin Tarintino
The killing – Stanley Kubrick
The godfather- Francis ford Coppola
Asphalt jungle- John Huston
Inside man- spike lee
Lock stock and two smoking barrels- guy Ritchie
Sin city – frank miller
Goodfellas- Martin Scorsese
