Individual ideas for a narrative-Miss Georgiou

Individual ideas for a narrative

Firstly there are different ideas which are in the thriller genres that have influenced me to enjoy a certain convention for example I like the use of mystery and suspense for example the Saw V clip that we watched expresses the suspense and mystery of the five characters after Jigsaw explained the game to them. I enjoyed this element because I like the factor of not knowing of what is going to happen next in addition this is a clever way of introducing suspense because we don't know as the audience to who is going to get their head chopped off.

Furthermore my idea for a narrative is a horror type thriller theme for example a family experience a the loss of electricity at the latter stage of the evening while watching TV and a child of around 12-13 who is getting bullied at school thinks that their is a thief in the house but no member of the family believes it and this child constantly believes and starts to feel the movement upon him but the electricity comes back on and the family of five think that he is not in the best mental state. As this continues the child becomes paranoid who hears voices in his head from the bullying of the teacher and throughout the week this keeps happening and everyone in the family thinks that he is crazy but when the family are sitting down for a candle lit special occasion dinner for the child's birthday and a teacher from his school who has been bullying the child appears and kills him out of no where and unexpectedly kills the child with a butcher knife. In addition this idea adds an element of complete shock to the family that is reflected on the audience as they didn't believe the child in the first place and they wasn't aware of the bullying that went on the their child.

This narrative idea would be very conventional to the thriller genre because I believe it would introduce the aspect of thrill, shock and tension into the sequence for instance the audience will be largely shocked by the ending and the suspense up the child's murder.
.
It would also be conventional to the thriller genre because it would keep the audience to the edge of their seat to see what happens to the family after the murder and the paranoia of the child. The target audience of the idea would be to the 15 rated certificate because it would show a great ordeal of horror and gory images at the stage when the child gets stabbed which includes the shock at this point which is conventional to the thriller genre also it wouldn't be suitable for people under 15 because of the violence that would be intended in the idea, the narrative may well upset children that are very sensitive to see someone getting killed in that manor in a film.
