Question 1: In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

Our title sequence is Mystery thriller based on a couple, that seem to not live happily due to their lifestyle shown in the film. The husband then begins to call his wife for more food, he doesn't find her, but before hand there was a phone call taking place, involving weapons and guns and meeting location. The door then swings open a person with a covered face walks in and kills the husband. The mystery is who did that, and why.

A usual storyline for a film of this particular genre (Mystery Thriller) where it can be about a murder scene, in that case the plot centres around the detective who is the protagonist, and this protagonist is unravelling the crime by piecing clues together. My film resembles this genre but the only difference is that the audience has no Idea who killed the man and that is what keeps them on their toes wanting to find out who and why.

Typical storylines

Identity- Throughout mystery thrillers films, the main idea is not create a sense of mystery for the audience, a puzzle for the audience to unravel. This interacts the audience and engages them by causing them to anaylse and think creating scenarios of all the possible reasons of the situation.

reality- characters are usually trying to figure and solve a problem. One of the most popular mystery thriller is Scooby doo. This type of genre has a very interactive and fun but spooky theme, based on mystery and the person at the end turn out someone you were never expecting which is somewhat disappointing but a surprise to the audience generating conversation.
