We wanted to include some of these conventions to make our thriller as much like an actuall good thriller as possible. We analysed scenes from the thriller 'Bourne Identity'. This gave us a true insight into what we should include to make a successful thriller opening sequence. We also watched a lot of thriller opening sequences on youtube to give us some ideas of what other thriller opening sequences include to give us some ideas.
