Genre and Theme

23 Best Psychological Thriller Books That Will Mess With Your Head | Reedsy  Discovery

The genre of the film is psychological thriller. In terms of props, this would be something that people have everyday, such as food and drinks. There would be some other items, including bags and coats and notepad as we would want the audience to relate to the character.

The costume would subvert from the genre, with people wearing school uniform as it takes place in a school. In terms of the situation, it would be based on a real life issue that has affected a lot of people, which would differ to other films with this genre which would have a plot that includes situation, which are far from reality. 

The situations would use a convention of a psychological thriller. This would be through how it would follow how someone may feel after finding out that they are the only one there, including how their thought process would be after a few weeks of being isolated from everyone. 

The convention of having recurring characters will be used in order to present the main character's mindset in which he would see people who are not actually there. 

There will be sound effects, such as clear audible used to convey where the character is and what scene is being depicted. There would be a voiceover put in place, which will be used to let the audience know what is currently happening in the narrative, along with explaining what the character is thinking and how he is feeling.

As for the cinematography, there will be some clear shots that would be conveyed in a normal psychological thriller film, in which the day would be passing and there also would be clear emotions of the main character presented to convey his state of mind. 

The lighting in a film with this genre tends to be quite dim and changes within the atmosphere. For this film, we will be following this convention. 

The film will take on a psychological theme. This will be covered through the visual representations of the emotions and the behaviour of the main character and the slow detoriation of him.
