2. QUESTION 1
1.In what ways does your media product
use, develop challenge forms and
conventions real media products
3. My media product develops forms and
conventions of real media products
because contrary to normal convention of
romantic comedies my product involves
the idea of sexuality which isn’t a very
common convention in romantic comedies
and so this is to show how sexuality can
be a possible situation where romance
and comedy is concerned.
4. HOW I USED
CONVENTION
The film was shot using regular camera shots
like the establishing shot the long shot the two
shot and the wide shot. For the misc-en-scene
the costumes used were intended to show a
kind of college feel and create the appearance
of the characters as being students with the
use of hoodies and caps and jeans for the
guys and leggings and t-shirts for the girls..
For sound I picked a very comical song for the
sound track.
5. USE OF CAMERA SHOTS,
SOUND AND MIS-EN SCENE TO
DEVELOP CONVENTION
Particularly the use of two shots, these were
used inorder to show or create the level of
intimacy between two characters. And when
the two characters engage in conversation
the two shot makes easy for the viewer to
identify with who is speaking and what sort of
emotion is registered on their faces.
6. REASONS FOR DEVELOPING FORMS
AND CONVENTION
My group and I decided that normal convention was
obviously becoming boring and so a new tweak would attract
more viewers and maybe increase sales for our media
product. When viewers see the same story happening over
and over again they tend to get bored and may even
prejudge any other movies of the same genre prior to their
release this may cause a drop in sales because nobody will
be interested in paying for something they’ve already seen
happen before. Hence to keep our media product interesting
we incorporated the idea of sexuality into the mix.
