Movie convention blog: "What Happened to Monday"

     To research more about our genre we watched a few films based on mystery. One of the first films we watched was "What Happened to Monday," which we found on Netflix. The overall idea of it is a dystopian society with over population. To solve this issue in this world, they created a "one child" policy. The main characters, septuplets each named after a name of the week, go out into society on their corresponding day pretending to be each other so that they would all be able to live.     The first few scenes are one of the siblings walking out and doing their own stuff, once she got home there was a flashback which basically explained how they got to this point.

Short Film Research: Scruples/ mystery

A slightly insincere account of how policeman would actually have to act Is the approach that overall surrounds this film.        This short film has great similarities when it comes to appealing to an audience, including sounds. Commonly sound sounds in this genre include dramatic sounds that interpret exhaustion, or sudden surprise. As found in the short film, background noise is intriguing and allows the audience to feel a sense of suspense. The mystery genre often uses costumes that may make a character look overlooked, like in the short film where they were basic-colored coats. Lighting is often dimmed down during these genres, with cooler/ m...
