Chuck Jones - Looney Tunes

The cartoon sketches with Coyote and Roadrunner follow rather strict rules. One of the rules is that Coyote always has his contraptions and plans turn on him, also his parts and contraptions are always from the company called ACME as you can see in the picture on the left. Another one is how Coyotes is always beating by his contraptions in a way where gravity is his worst enemy. For Roadrunner his rule is that he can only say "Meep Meep".

Audience Research

Before filming our thriller we did some audience research to find out what aspects of thrillers people prefer.

The questionare above asks a question which tell us three words which best sums up a thriller. We then gathered the three words from all the twenty questionares and put them into wordle which give us the most common words used lager than the least used words. Below is the wordle we got.

Script of our Thriller

In our Thriller opening there is no script due to there being no dialoge. But intead we will use many diagetic and non-diagetic sounds, The non-diagetic sound consists of music which we have gained from an unsigned band called The 99's, the image below shows one of the members of the band conferming that we are allowed to use one of their songs. 

If there is any other additional music we will require we also signed up to Mobygratis.com so we will have and music from there at our disposal. Below is a screen grab from the Mobygratis website.
