The idea of Black and White

We had the idea of making the film in black and white, rather than in colour. We thought about this as it was a film technique commonly used in thriller films in the past. It would commonly be seen in Psychological thrillers, for example the film 'Noir' made use of it, they used it to create tension between the film and the audience.

A more modern example of black and white films would be a film known as 'Tabu', which was brought out in the year 2012.

We were discussing whether to go through with the Black and white, and tested it out with a black and white filter. In the end, we decided on keeping it in colour as we felt it would end up being too close to previously made films and would make our film seem like any other thriller film.
