Finished Product, Ring Of Roses - Casey,Megan and Dannielle AND The final Idea (:




This is my finished thriller product. I feel that the basic concept of thrillers are evident in my film and all the things i set out to do have been achieved.

Because our film was deleted off the system we had to start again so decided to change our idea a little bit. We still used the corridor but had the camera going towards the closed door to a secluded room. The camera went up to the actor, and zoomed into her eye where there was a flashback. The flashback was her and 2 friends when they were younger playing 'a ring a ring of roses'. 2 of the other actors pushed her to the ground resulting in her death. They ran away in fear. The flashback finishes and it ends with a quick close up shot of her face.

180 Degree Rule





The 180 Degree Rule is an important aspect of the film grammar. The Director's template has a tool for drawing in the 180 degree axis and it is worthwhile to get in the habit of drawing it in. Crossing the 180 degree axis can be very confusing since the directions established for the viewer is changed.
