Learning about the Thriller Genre (independent study)

You will conduct research into the Thriller genre and give a presentation in class about it. Start with this:

 

Genre theorists from reigatemedia

Now investigate the conventions of thrillers - with examples / clips / screengrabs.

Explore the different types (sub-genres) of thrillers, identifying their specific conventions (characters, settings, typical narrative and iconography) and giving examples. (Don't just copy the same old PPT that does the rounds every year)


YOU CAN WORK IN A PAIR BUT BOTH OF YOU NEED TO FEATURE THE WORK ON YOUR BLOG. YOU CAN ALSO PRESENT IN CLASS TOGETHER.
