AWhen looking back on the final product of the finished thriller film opening, I have made a fair few criticisms about the film which could have been improved. If i had to select one main criticism it would be attention to mise en scene when relating to character clothing. As you can see in the finished product, the clothing of the protagonist and antagonist is very basic and not thought through as thoroughly as is could have. The antagonist was wearing a black coat with black jeans on. This way meant to convey that he was in fact, a mentally ill being who has escaped from a psychological prison and is unsafe to be in the eye of the public. However, the clothing in which we selected was not thought through anywhere near as well as it could have. In agreement with the rest of the group, we decided that the costume of the antagonist, is not suitable for the character that he was meant to be playing. Attention to detail on this kind of character is something we must get absolutely right.
When we look back on this error, we have re-thought of what the antagonist should have been wearing. The conclusion that we had come to is that he should have been wearing an orange/blue jumpsuit, something that you would stereotypically find in prison. This would have been far more suitable as it would have given a far greater understanding to the viewers of what was happening in this film, to a more precise degree.
