Sound.

I have been experimenting with different uses of sound in my product.
Initially I thought that a voice over would be most effective because then the audience would feel a strong connection with Emma, the protagonist. Also, a convention of a psychological thriller is the focus on the human mind and I think that a voice-over could give the audience a deeper insight into the protagonist's minds.
I have also tried different pieces of music in the background by creating music with suspense and emotion on a programme called 'GarageBand'.
I have also tried using this piano cover of Ellie Goulding's version of 'Your Song', originally by Elton John:

However, I think that the simple voice-over was the most effective as the silences inbetween gave the opening an eerie tone, which emphasizes the thriller genre.
