We used a range of different shots. Each shot was used for a different reason. We used a long shot of the killer and the girl walking, this was used so that both the characters are in the same shot at the same time, this creates tension and makes the view feel sorry for the girl because she is getting followed and we don't know what is coming next.
We used point of view shots from both the killer and the girl so that we got into the mind of each of the characters.
We used a establishing shot to show where the thriller is set, and also in the corner of the establishing shot is the killer so it shows that he is there.
We used a high angle shot to make the girl look like she needs help and is in danger.

The type of editing that we used was a fade in and out at the beginning and end of the thriller. We also used other types of transition between the different scenes.

The way we held a steady shot by using the tripod to hold the camera, but at some points we just used our hands because we didn't have the space to use a tripod, so we just tried to keep our hands a steady as we could.

The thriller was set in a school, so all the mise-en-scene had to be to do with the school. We set some of the thriller in the class so that it was clear where it was set.

We decided not to have any dialogue in the whole piece because we feel this would ruin the tension that we had tried to build up in the piece. Also we are only having me and Chris in the thriller and at no point do the killer and the girl meet, so there would be no need for dialogue. Therefore we are going to play music all though the thriller.
