    Generic Conventions

    Uploaded by

    Zoia
    The document discusses generic conventions commonly found in thriller films, including characteristics of lighting, sound, music, and characters. Specifically, it notes that lighting in thrillers is often desaturated or uses high contrast to create mood and tension. The sound and music can be either diegetic or non-diegetic and is meant to be synchronous with the images. Character types in thrillers generally include protagonists, antagonists, and characters that fit Joseph Propp's roles like the hero, villain, donor, and princess.
