Rationale- 

Thriller genre is something that i love watch and associate a lot to it. I also have written many thriller story which i like. I have a good experience with camera and how to operate them. I also have a good sense on lighting. The skills i would learn from this process would be how to edit properly and also help me to improve my skill set.

Research-

There are two types of research which is primary and secondary research. For my opening sequence i chose to do a primary research as it is more reliable and all the data collected in up to date. I did an interview with teenagers to see what do they expect or think abut thriller movies and the other method was a online survey. 


Constrains and contingency-

There are many problems with getting a permission to shoot at a particular spot. If the shooting there denied then keep a back up plan where there is s location where there is no need of permission. Many times some actors can't make to the set so i my opinion have many buffer(additional) days of shooting. 

Legal and ethical consideration-

I have chosen Netflix as my distribution company so would have ti give it proper credits as if i don't give proper credits that would be going against the leagl rules and regulations.  

Budget-

I didn't really spend a lot of money in spend a lot of money in renting or buying additional equipment. So i spent 500/-RS per day for daily expenses which covered the transportation cost as well.
