Here is my document analyzing the conventions of Severance episode 1
In class we watched Episode 1, Season 1 of the Apple TV Show ‘Severance’ This is a thriller show and follows the narrative of a man named Mark who lives a split live between his personal life and his work life.
In this episode we see typical thriller conventions of suspense, plot twists and cliff hangers. These are shown through Petey coming back to find Mark to reveal the truth about the workplace and Mark’s boss being his next door neighbor. When we begin our coursework we will have the choice of creating a thriller film opening, therefore we are doing research into the genre to help make decisions.
