Evaluation question 1



Question 1
In what way does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products? (i.e. of film openings)

Our media opening consists of many different codes and conventions. These include:

  • Creepy Voice over
  • Low key lighting
  • Gun
  • Victim
  • Psychopath
We used the creepy voice over because it shows that our main character is insane and feels pressured to killing the girl. It also suggests that he has no one else. This is typical in a Thriller film. The low key lighting when he loads his gun gives it a intense feel and makes the viewer realise he is dangerous.Low key makes it look creepy and twisted. The setting we used (Outside) looks old and Erie which is typical in a thriller. The kitchen scene is mainly black and white. This is because the white shows the innocence of the girl but the occasional black item shows that it has been tampered with and slowly being tainted. The super imposed editing in the kitchen scene gives a fast paced feeling and multiple points of interest. Shot 6 shows the aggressive nature of the psychopathic.
