Evaluation task 6 - How have I used digital technologies?



1. We used the internet to help us research films similar to ours as we looked at different film websites such as IMBD. On the website we searched the genres that were similar to ours and came across several crime and mystery thrillers. This is where we found films such as Silence of the Lambs, Drive, Identity thief and The Long Kiss Goodnight. After finding these films that we thought were suitable we looked at their opening sequences and trailers using YouTube to see how we could relate our thriller to them.
2. We used the internet to research real life incidents similar to our thriller by looking at different newspaper online such as The Mail Online. We also Google searched real life incidents relating to stolen and fake identities; we came across many on peoples personal and daily blogs.


3. Our online research helped us come up with locations and costumes because by the research we had carried out previously we noticed a theme in the films similar to ours, as they were made realistic with little effects and were just filmed in normal, suburban settings. For the costumes we researched what FBI would normally wear and tried to recreate this costume with what we already had. Our inspiration for the costume was mainly from Drive and the TV series Intruders- which we discovered from our previous research online.
