Firstly in the pre-production stages of making my thriller I carried out research into the genre and the target audience, having done this I was then able to confidently create a storyboard that would show the right conventions, themes and attract my target audience. As I hadn't done this for the preliminary task I am able to identify areas that didn't work in the preliminary task and analyse why. The answer to which being that I didn't have a full knowledge of the audience or genre.
The major change I have made from filming the initial preliminary task to the final edit of my thriller, is that I am more confident and comfortable when using the equipment and software. Also I have developed my knowledge on how to best use the technologies within the filming and editing processes in order to convey the themes and the emotions to the audience.
Another noticeable difference in the tasks is the way in which my camera skills have evolved, as in the preliminary task the images were often out of focus and the lighting wasn't used effectively.
In comparison to this the images within my thriller opening sequence are clear, show good use of lighting but also good knowledge of how to use settings on the camera to improve my work and help portray the right themes. As within the example below we used the rule thirds on the camera to have foliage in the foreground of the shot, as this illustrates the theme of voyeurism.
