This is an example of a teen thriller. The clip contains conventions of the teen thriller genre, for example:

• A Darkened secluded area.
• A protagonist of teenage years.
• The clip also creates enigmas as you are wondering why he is there.
• The non-diegetic music would have been popular with teenagers of the time period.

These are the types of codes and conventions that we will need to consider for our film.
