Paint rules.

I can't use GIMP! It's too difficult to use! I'm trying to make my film posters and DVD covers and I can't because there is constant errors with GIMP. Pasting an image seems to be too challenging. Cropping a pasted image seems to be too challenging. Scaling a pasted image which has been perfectly cropped seems to be too challenging.

I DON'T LIKE USING GIMP.

Codes and Conventions of a Thriller

Thrillers heavily stimulate the viewer's moods such as a high level of anticipation, ultra-heightened expectation, uncertainty, anxiety, suspense, excitement, tension, and terror. Literary devices such as red herrings and cliffhangers are used extensively. The cover-up of important information from the viewer, and fight and chase scenes are common methods in all of the thriller subgenres, although each subgenre has its own characteristics and methods.
