Portfolio post 2



For my film opening project, I’ve narrowed down my options to two genres: Psychological Thriller and Action. Both genres offer unique opportunities for storytelling, visual style, and audience engagement. Below, I’ve outlined the key characteristics of each genre, along with examples and how they might influence my project. Psychological thrillers focus on the mental and emotional states of characters, often exploring themes like identity, reality, and perception. These films rely on tension, suspense, and psychological manipulation to engage the audience.

Films like Gone girl, Black Swan, and Shutter island use psychological to create a better meaning to there character development.














I am considering this genre because It allows for creative storytelling and visual experimentation and the focus on character psychology offers opportunities for deep, thought-provoking themes.




Action films are known for their high-energy sequences, elaborate plans, and charismatic characters. These films often feature thrilling set pieces, fast-paced editing, and themes of teamwork and loyalty.




Films like Baby Driver, Ocean's Eleven, and Fast and Furious use action to create a scenes of high/ fast action that create a sense of trill.
















Why I am considering this genre-It’s visually exciting and offers opportunities for creative action sequences, the ensemble cast dynamic allows for diverse character interactions, and It has a broad audience appeal and is fun to film and edit.




Both genres have their strengths and challenges. A psychological thriller would allow me to explore deeper themes and experiment with visual storytelling, while an action film would be more dynamic and visually engaging. Ultimately, my decision will depend on the resources available, my team’s strengths, and the story I want to tell.
