Synesthesia is the production of a sense impression relating to one sense or part of the body by stimulation of another sense or part of the body.

Sound, is vital to a thriller, through appropriate use of sound it can completely change the tone and mood and representation within the sequence. by adding sounds such as a non-diegetic drone music to build tension or diegetic crow sounds to add an underlying theme of fear.

theses sounds were implemented to make the audience react and feel a particular way, for example, the drone sound represents the fear that the protagonist goes through day in day out.

I made this wordle to show the kind emotions that I initially wanted to portray through sound, using the wordle helped me visualize my idea of what different sounds can make different themes be portrayed.

Above is a piece of non-diegetic sound that I came across on youtube, I liked the themes it made me think of, I would like to use something similar to this as connotes themes of isolation and deprivation, it is also increases tension which would make it generic of a thriler.

Below is a copy of the running order soundscape this is what we used to plan out our sounds within our thriller and to know what foley sounds we needed to record.

Below is the feedback left on our Draft 2

What we need to change to improve our thriller:

• Move ‘The Wanderer Title so it’s in the center of the screen
• Include more diegetic Crow sounds
• Change the sound perspective of Dylan’s feet
• Change the colour or the font of ‘The Wanderer title
• Remove the white screen that what used for spacing

Within a thriller, titles are very important. Titles help to portray certain emotions to the audience through font and positioning, it is also important that  the titles are parallel with the themes of the thriller, I did some research on different colours, animations, and fonts for our thriller “The Wanderer”

This is a list of fonts we found that we could potentially use for our thriller, the green ones are more appropriate to the thriller genre and the red ones do not reflect themes of the genre.

When we found the font we thought was most appropriate for the genre we imported them into Adobe After Effects to start working on the construction and placement of titles and then later, placing them onto our thriller. we also scrolled through lots of animation carefully selecting one that feel would reflect the themes within our thriller. Using After Effects helped me to further my knowledge in using the software in terms of how to animate different things and how to make titles fit with the themes of the thriller.

^ This is an example of a transition that we have decided that would work best for our thriller.

For the main title of ‘The Wanderer’ we decided to add an animation that would represent the protagonist, we used an animation that looks like it is being blown away by the wind, this represents the protagonist’s environment that he lives in which is outside in a park.

This is a timeline of our titles placed in the thriller each title is renamed and moved into order of significance within the film and the production of the film.
