Thriller mood board




Typical thriller shot 1:

James Bond is enjoying a serene life in Jamaica after leaving active service. However, his peace is short-lived as his old CIA friend shows up and requests for his help. The mission to rescue a kidnapped scientist turns out to be far more traitorous than expected, leading Bond on the trail of a secretive villain who carries destructive weapons. This shot is close up and portrays James bond’s mixture of emotions, being focused and confident to take action. He is preparing for take off in a fighter jet in this scene. This puts an effect of curiosity in the audience.


Typical thriller shot 2:

This scene is taken in a long shot in the tunnel which create suspense and suggests something will happen. The narrow and confined gives James bond limited options to go to. This build up more suspense in the audience. More over the audience gets engaged in the scene and want to find out what will happen.


Typical thriller editing sequences:

The pace is slow when there is not a lot of action however it becomes rapid once there is shooting and fighting. Bond and Leiter must rescue a kidnapped scientist from the hands of the Russians, a mission described by the movie synopsis as a "far more treacherous mission than expected," a hint that the duo will encounter great danger, and that Leiter may not make itEven if Leiter does not die, he may be seriously injured if No Time to Die follows Ian Fleming's novels closely. This time code 2:11 shows this likeliness.

CIA agent Felix Leiter is seen visiting James Bond while he is retired in Jamaica in the trailer. Leiter tells him that as time has passed, it has become more difficult to differentiate between the good and the badIn this case, the writer may be referring to Daniel Craig's role as Bond, who has shown greater willingness to do morally questionable things than previous BondsJames Bond does not know who to trust, which seems to be one of the main themes of No Time to Die.


Typical thriller mise-en-scene:

The era is the present day in modern times, although there is advanced technology used by the protagonist and which becomes more complex technology in possession of the villain. Moreover there are scenes of the past about how a previous villain killed a characters parent when she was younger. The locations vary in the trailer as there are different areas such as the city, cliffs as well as the Island.

James Bond finds himself trapped aboard a ship after an explosion causes it to sink. Previous trailers had shown a glimpse at an action scene taking place aboard a huge cargo ship, but the final trailer reveals Bond is trapped aboard the ship when it sinks. 


Typical thriller sounds: 

The atmosphere of No Time to Die is darker and grittier, full of suspense, as is the case with other Daniel Craig Bond filmsThe rhythmic augmentation, used to create the drawn-out versions of Bond themes,creates a great deal of tension.

 A gothic and rhythmic emphasis is evident on Zimmer and Marr's tracks, which are punchy (just like a good Bond opening sequence). The overall feel is minimalist. At times, we could be in a Glass opera, but then soaring strings enter, and we're back to Bond. 

To great effect, the tempo of Gun Barrel, which scores the franchise's famous opening credits sequence, is halved, building gently to a crescendo with brief glissando leading into the classic Bond theme.
