Student thriller analysis :Easy target



There are many ways in which "Easy Target" follows the codes and conventions of a thriller. It uses fast cuts to help the narrative move along, whilst not revealing to much of the plot. The props used show details about plot, with the gun showing possible plot details. The fear of the unknown is created by never revealing the murderers face, with it being out of shot or otherwise obscured. However, we the soundtrack used doesn't fit with the footage shown. It is not contrasting enough to qualify as contrapuntal sound, but it is still illfitting for the piece. Also, it drowns out the dialogue to the point it can't be understood at all.
