The sub genre of our film is going to be a crime thriller, the overall narrative of our film would be about two farmers that find a body whilst harvesting their fields.
The characters in our film would be two male farmers with their dogs, we would use dogs as they would be the first to discover the body and this enables us to use diegetic sound of the dogs barking.
The location of our filming would be in a deserted feild in one of our nearby villages, this is to show an erry atmosphere.
The lighting of the sequence will be dull to show a more gloomy atmosphere, and to make it more realistic so it reflects every day farming lifestyle.
We or the actors we will be using will be dressed in the streotypical farming manor, so it is clear to the audience what characters we are trying to portray. The costumes will consist of items such as , wellies, hats, checkered shirts and dungerees.
The chosen tittle of our film will be
There would be a non diegetic soundtrack towards the end of the sequence when the body is discovered this would correlate with the editing as it would be fast paced to build tension making the audience aware that something will happen.
Our editing will be contiunous throughout except from when there is the scene where they found the body , in this part of the scene it will be montage editing produce an exciting atmosphere.

What equipment will we need?
We'll need, a camera, a tripod, farming cosutmes and simplistic farming props.
Our thriller film is now finished. In order to complete the film from it's last stage, we took on board the comments that our fellow peers put to us. They said that we needed to make our title sequences longer and also we needed to make the lighting in our clips darker in order to provide a more eery feel so that it would add to the thriller conventions. We also had to change the music so that the beat kicked it when the girls body is displayed on the screen. Another constructive criticism that we got was that the title clip for our fill, Rake, was in the wrong position and that the colour and font weren't appropriate. We then researched some better, more effective fonts and changed the background colour to black and the font colour to white. This made the title page stand out and look more like a thriller film. After changing these minor problems, our film was complete.
