Thriller is a broad genre of literature, film, television, and gaming that includes numerous and often overlapping sub-genres. Thrillers are characterized by fast pacing, frequent action, and resourceful heroes who must thwart the plans of more-powerful and better-equipped villains. (Wikipedia)
I have created my own mood board (as seen above) from a combination of images that I believe convey the characteristics of the thriller genre. Most of the images are posters or DVD covers of thriller movies which are intertwined with images of shots that have been taken from within the films. I think that I already posses a good knowledge of what the conventions of thriller films consists of, however once I analyze a variety of thriller film trailers I will expand this knowledge, this mood board will also help me achieve this. The thriller genre has common characteristics with other genres, it can often reflect other genres within its own such as horror, action, drama and mystery.
