- Uses a large amount of close ups to create tension and suspense.
- Use a large amount of facial close ups
- A large amount of thrillers are 'Good' VS' Evil
- Is in the protagonist POV to help the audience empathize with the protagonist.
- Is either fast pace and action happens reoccurring or is slow paced and lets then tension build up from every scene until it reaches the peak.
- The change in camera angles
- Foreboding sound that makes the audience assume something bad will happen later on
- Pitch of the music, fast paced, high pitched music makes everything seem like it is happening very fast whilst low pitched music helps to build up tension and gives off a ominous feel.
