that are about to
land on earth
which suggests the
film is sci-film

is shot at a long
angle shot of the
council block.
This makes the
block big and
intermediating.

misty give it a
sense of
mistiness.
The tittle is very bold and big which
makes it very clear for audience to
notice it. ‘ATTACK THE BLOCK’

and they also
look like they

something as
there posture
shows this
The characters look like the
type of people who might
live in the block, they
represented as typical
urban youth.
The characters
on the far end
both sides seem
to look like the
adults.
The woman looks
higher class on
the end as she is
dressed more
casual, however
the man on the
end is dressed
like a mess.
Having two elderly white
people broadens the
appeal as more elder
would have a reason why
they want to watch it

appeal the target
audience by having the
children wear what a
young youth would
wear. For example the
boys are wearing
hooded tops and baggy
trousers and caps.
