 This image challanges the concenpts of dim lighting and confindment, yet the lack of society also means it would be suitiable. The menacing alley ways will remind viewers of those alleys in " The Third Man " If there was ambient ligting reflecting off the cobble stone walls would look beautiful in a follow sequence. An example of this is in the third man, where the non-ambient lighting and the winding coblestoned alleys create a feeling of confusion and panic. The great use of 'tilt' shots in "The Third Man" gives a feeling of distortion and confusion.

The Third Man directed by Carol Reed is one of the most credited thrillers of all time. Carol Reed uses a variety of tilts shot and vanishing points to achieve feeling of a labyrinth (Maze). Carol Reed also uses thriller conventions like

• Wet floors
• Claustrophobic spaces
• Tilt shots
• extreme close ups
• vanishing points

Also in The Third Man there is a great use of non-diegetic lighting to personify characters personalities. An example of this is when Lime is first revealed to the audience. There is a low close up of a cat lurking around his legs which connotes his sly secretive personality. The next shot is of Harry Limes face illuminated while the rest of his body is engulfed by darkness, this mise en scene helps emphasise his mysterious character.

This toilet is perfect! it is gritty, isoloated and clostraphobic. the dim lighting also adds a feeling of mennace and uncertainty. Also the toilet is like that in "Witness" by Peter Weir. viewers will make the intertextual link between our opening and the murder scene in " Witness". In witness the toilets are used as a representation of America, filled with scum, corruption and murder. In Peter Weir’s ‘Witness’ with the use of extreme close ups the toilet comes across as a death trap in which the small child is enclosed in. within our thriller we will pay respects to the toilet scene by using extreme close ups to crese a sense of claustrophobia.

This shot location contains common thriller conventions which are inclkuded in many thrillers. The distant vanishing points which is similar to the one in Essex boys. The use of Pathetic fallacy in Terry Winsor’s ‘Essex Boys’ was effortlessly done to address the audience Jason’s personality. The extreme vanishing points fused with the mist of the Essex marsh helps show that Jason is ruthless and has no moral boundaries. The smoothness of his actions shows he is experienced in the life of crime, also his overly flamboyant clothing helps address to the audience his confident nature.
