Task 3 - Opening Sequence Of A Thriller

Taxi Driver

Genre:

The close up of the eyes create mystery otherwise known as 'enigma' the smoke and the feeling of not knowing also creates a particular image typical of a thriller film.
The music is louder at times and quieter at others this creates a feeling of suspense and leaves us hooked for more which is needed in a thriller.

Characters:

We only see the main characters eyes which doesn't tell us much about the character. The only thing we know for sure through different shots is that he is a taxi driver and the name of the film tell us this.

Conventions:

Red and black coloured titles.
A heavily populated city which is easy to loose someone and hard to find people in which creates a good setting for a thriller.
Tense/suspense music.
A lonely character that holds a grudge against people/nations or organisations.

How It Keeps The Audience Watching:

The tension filled music which increases in pitch and frequency.
By changing from light to dark to change the moods amid atmosphere.

Question's We Want Answered:

Who is the man?
where is he going?
why is he a taxi driver?
Why is he looking out the window?
