Thriller opening Draft cut

This is our group video for the thriller project. Please could you give us feedback on the quality of the editing, if a conventional "thriller" atmosphere had been achieved and if our soundtrack goes well with the atmosphere. thanks...

Plan for Monday 8th

1. Upload our rough cut video to our blog
2. Work on improving soundtrack
3. Edit our video to include our names and make it longer by adding blank spots to our video to give it more depth and atmosphere.

Mick . M

Today i (Mick . M) and Ben decided to take a look around the area where we would film our complete scene. From doing this we could figure out good vantage points to take the shot from, and yet again evaluate upon our ideas for the filming of this intro. We have been set the task of filming a thriller, in our thriller we have chosen to include the quite popular military man and his mental illness, which in cases of thriller is particularly popular.
