Wallender! (Fire Wall, BBC)


We usually watch opening sequences to Thiller movies in the run-up to the our assessment however today we watched an opening sequence to a BBC programme called Wallender. Although it still fits the opening conventions for a Thriller.

- It still had eerie/tension building music.
- It still made us ask questions about things happening.
- Costumes (Red) = Danger; Common in Thrillers.
- Used Hyperbolic sound to scare audience
- Used intriguing camera shots like P.O.V & Close Up to hide infomation.


All of the above are common in Thriller movies and their opening sequences; however their still imminant in a TV programme which is showing that this Thriller genre has coventions that can be wide-spread across the media board!
