For our final two minute thriller opening piece, we decided as a group to change certain shots by darkening using them Adobe After Effects as they were far to light and because the lighting wasn’t very good during filming. We did this by giving them a darker, red colour.
The group decided that this looked much better and improved our piece as we think the effect helps the footage meet the codes and conventions of a thriller genre. The red tint added to the footage symbolizes blood, which reinforces danger, which is common to thrillers. Consequently creating an impact on the audience and creating a tense setting. Overall it links very well with the setting and the narrative of our opening.
This darkening effect was used in our final opening and the colour for example it is used to make the outside woods scenes darker, to give the effect that the film is set a night.
