In our thriller opening we have lots of enigmas. This is a common convention used in thrillers. Most of our story line is surrounded by enigmas, and as we are only making the opening they never get solved. The cinematography helps to show these enigmas as most of them are about the ballet teacher, and you don't actually get a proper look at her. The sound we used is also an enigma as it is mainly ballet music and not speech. The editing of our opening sequence will also create enigmas as it will flicker between different images that do not always fit together, making the audience try to work out what is going on.
The mise en scene is another thriller convention that we used. Our antagonist is dressed all in black, which makes her look more mysterious, and the ballerinas are dressed in typical ballet clothes. These two outfits create another enigma between as they are opposite outfits which give of opposite thoughts. The dark outfit makes her seem quite scary and creepy, while the ballerinas look so innocent. The high camera angle add to this as it looks as if the ballet dancers are being watched and they don't know that they are.
