How to film a Thriller

conventions which are typical amongst thrillers:

-Point of view shot: to enable us to be able to see what the character is looking at
-long shot: to show the scene where it's set
-high angle shot: to represent vulnerability
-tracking shot: to follow movement
-extreme close up: to show dispense and anxiety
-close up: to focus on a aspect of something
-fast editing: used to add tension
-cross dissolve: used to show quick editing of which someone walked a period of time instead of showing them walking whole way skips from beginning to the end
tilt shot: to represent uncertainty
match on action: cuts between shots on movement.
shot reverse shot: to show him walking through the cave to build tension but also anything could happen at any moment as he gets deeper within the cave
back light: silhouette is used to show a representation of the outline of the person within a black outline which also suggests darkness something bad could happen.
wide angle: to fit surrounding area in but also possible dangers
fast pacing: 2 second per shots to emphasise tension but also keep intrigued.
slow motion: suggests the panic & danger is over.
diagetic sound: breathing heavily natural but also suggests anxiety
deep focus: when your set on a specific object or place or person.
non-diagetic sound: typical music to build up tension slowly dependent upon the setting or where the person is within thriller as outside was birds singing whereas in the cave it's sinister music.]

But within a thriller there is not to much dialogue due to it can destroy the mood to which is trying to be presented but also most people are unable to act when being recorded therefore to anticipate upon a good thriller which can have all the aspects you expect is presented more thoroughly through fast editing & pacing, non diagetic sound but also the surroundings.
