Martha Marcy May Marlene is a 2011 Thriller/drama directed by Sean Durkin. Before entering the site, an image of the protagonist appears, within the letter M. Representing all the alias' she portrays in the film. Below the image the names of the main cast are listed, This is used so the audience can see who is in the film. We want to include this within our website. On top of the image, reviews flash up, giving the audience a hint of what the film is about, and what critics think of it. This will persuade the audience to go and see the film. We are planning to use this for our film website.
As you enter the site, the background changes to black, which creates a sense of mystery and suspense, conforming to the Psychological Thriller genre. The white stars on the black background, move into pictures of the Antagonist, further connoting a sense of suspense to the audience. The white stars also spell out the themes explored within the film, such as "Possession" giving the audience an idea of what happens in the film.
The user is able to click on certain parts of the image, which leads them to another picture, which was likely used in the film. The image is shown to be slightly distorted, conforming to the Psychological Thriller genre, as the audience is not given all the information of the plot. At the top of the page, the website has a sidebar, linking to two social media websites, Facebook, and Twitter, therefore appealing to a wide range of audiences.
