Thriller Planning: Characters, Costumes and Props

Ideas and Details:
  • Name: Detective Furnace.
  • Nationality: British.
  • Hat/Suit - Formal.
  • Duffel Bag - Enigmatic/MacGuffin.
  • Locket - Enigmatic/Chekhov's Gun - Picture of wife inside - tells audience about the past of the main character/gives hints about the past. 
  • Wall of 'stuff' - tells the audience about the character being organised due to the amount of information and how he is keeping track of the possibilities about who murdered his wife.
Connotations and Effects:
  • Enigmatic/Mysterious.
  • Formal/Authoritative.
Suitability for the Genre:
  • Suitable; suits the genre because it is enigmatic.
  • Takes influences from Se7en, detective/enigmatic film with similar style to our film/characters.
Logistics:

  • The character we have created is very accessible. Clothing is easy to get, only needs to wear a suit/shirt/hat. Personality is easy to achieve too.
The First Shot:
  • The first shot we see of the character is an establishing shot of him walking towards his house and opening it. However we do not at any point see the main characters face in the opening shots.
