In what Ways in which my media product uses, develops, or challenges forms and conventions of real media products?

Thriller films opening sequences are easily identified by the audience to be a thriller, through the use of conventions that almost stereotype it to thriller movies.

For example with the typical conventions that the audience expect to see like blood, rain, darkness, screaming, tears, weapons, heroes and psychological characters. However not all thriller opening sequences begin being very negative at dis-equilibrium but some start at equilibrium to portray a more positive image, and then the flow of the film changes to disequilibrium. My opening sequence had a lot of thriller film conventions like blood, darkness, and the "evil" character, therefore it supports the basis of thriller films opening sequences.
In comparison to The Eye thriller opening sequence;
The eye starts looking very scary, negative and unreal, this is similar to my opening sequence however The Eye also includes sounds like screams rather than music over it which I did in my opening sequence. Therefore both opening sequences portray fear in different ways, The Eye makes it obvious that something "bad" is happening to people but my opening sequence creates mystery in the audiences eyes as it is not that obvious of what is actually happening, however this may seem un-natural as music in circumstances like this would not be played at the background. The use of particular conventions in my opening sequence like blood, psychological character, empty space and darkness indicate that the film is a thriller and also shows it's similarity to other thrillers.
A complete change in mood occurs in The Eye opening sequence it becomes much more 'real' and positive, this completely contradicts the start of the opening sequence, however the use of pathetic fallacy restores the negative atmosphere portrayed at the start. This is also similar to my opening sequence as at the beginning it's at disequilibrium (which is the dream) and then as the character wakes up it becomes normal like any normal day a person experiences. This makes it much more realistic, the negativity is also restored as the character see's the setting she saw in the dream.
In comparison to Awake thriller opening sequence;

This opening sequence is very different to my opening sequence. It begins with text outlining a real life case, this is very different to typical thriller opening sequence as it usually starts with the action, text continues for the first 1 minute of the opening sequence. The text at the start gives an indication of what will be involved in the movie.

Slow negative music progresses after the text, this brings back the fact it is a thriller and is quite negative, i also used sound to create and atmosphere and negative/ mystery feel. After this it is all 'normal', with a natural atmosphere and you can hear characters talking.This thriller film sequence is completly at equilibrium, this challanges the typical conventions of thriller films, however this makes the story line less obvious and allows the audience to be suspicious of what could happen! Whereas my oppening sequence starts at complete dis-equilbrium, and then at equilbrium therefore both oppening sequences are very different.

Evidence of horror thriller conventions:

Black and white empty setting, with large old trees and black birds;

An empty quite road, with just one "random" character in the middle indicating danger. It is dark and looks un-usual for something like that to happen.

The psychological character, with typical features such as pale skin, subtle features, and long black hair. Also her clothes are plain.

A big, dark, empy setting that looks un-naturel, with a random person standing alone with no arms revealed.

A "special" buliding, it is a mental institute which indicates negativity and sadness. Also it is blury which is also dreamy and can seem super naturel, it can also seem haunted.
