The document discusses how the media product develops conventions of real psychological thriller trailers and films. It analyzed trailers like Gone Girl, Shutter Island, and The Machinist to understand common conventions. It aims to create suspense through a 1 minute 43 second run time, continuity editing showing desperate search for a missing person, montage editing showing time progression without revealing the plot. It uses fade to black transitions between clips to create intensity. Dialogue is used instead of voiceover to explain the narrative. The female protagonist's identity is kept mysterious through an establishing shot with her back to the audience, in contrast to Gone Girl revealing the protagonist. Props are shown ordinarily but their location creates intrigue. Overall, it challenges

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence.

1. In what way does your
media product develop
or challenge forms and
conventions of real
media products?
2. Teaser Trailer
The genre of our media product is a psychological thriller, with it being a sub genre of a thriller, it
meant that it had its own individual conventions, in which we conveyed through our media
products. Influenced significantly by psychological thriller 'Gone Girl' and various other trailers like
'Shutter Island' and 'The Machinist', we looked closely at the elements featured within them, in
order to get an idea of what the common conventions for this particular genre are and of a teaser
trailer in general.
Once watching numerous trailers, and analyzing the micro and macro elements of 'Gone Girl', I
noticed several features in which were demonstrated throughout each trailer. By firstly
discovering that the majority of the teaser trailers had the duration of 1minute 30seconds, we
decided to create our trailer of a similar length. By doing so, it meant that the audience aren't able
to view too much of the film, giving too much of the narrative away. Instead, having our teaser at
1minute 43 seconds, it ensured that the audience saw an outline of the film, in which allowed
them to see important 'snippets', that if they liked, they would go and see the whole film, creating
enigma.
3. Editing
An important element featuring in teaser trailers is the way in which it is edited, often through
continuity, montage pace adjustments, filters/colour changes and typography, editing is used in
order to highlight key parts of the narrative, resulting in the audience being enticed towards the
anticipation of the film.
When researching psychological thriller teaser trailers, we found that they tended to feature a
combination of montage and continuity editing to be as informative as possible within the short
amount of time, yet in a way that is effectively capturing the audiences attention. We decided that
following these conventions within our teaser would achieve a similar effect.
The sequence above demonstrates the use of continuity editing , generating a fast pace within our
teaser trailer . Our general idea behind this certain sequence was to emphasize the anticipation ,
desperation and speed in which our antagonist has in order to find the missing protagonist,
illuminating a feeling of suspense and triumph within the audience. A similar mood was produced
through the style of contiunity in ‘Gone Girl’, as the male character searches frantically for his
missing wife.
4. Editing
As well as continuity, we included montage editing, a convention for this particular product. By
doing so, we established a progression in time, allowing the audience to understand the narrative
briefly through a variety of shots, without exposing too much of the plot. Above, the audience can
see that as the trailer develops the missing protagonist is still alone, suggesting that she is never
found. Although, this isn’t entirely clear, therefore creating a sense of enigma and enticement,
resulting in the audience eager to view the rest of the film.
Likewise, ‘Gone Girl’ features montage editing within their teaser trailer, conveying various stages
of the two protagonist’s relationship with each other as the trailer progresses. This again, is
showing the development of time and information on key characters, however through the use of
the continuous switch between past and present, achieved with flashbacks. We also incorporated a
flashback within our trailer, as it is a common technique demonstrated in the psychological thriller
genre to highlight the characters state of mind. However, we portrayed ours simply through a black
and white filter added within the editing stages of our product, which appeared to be not as
effective, obvious and dramatic as ‘Gone Girls’ way of intertwining it within montage editing.
5. Editing
A conventional technique displayed within teaser trailers is the use of ‘Fade to black’
transitions, as they reinforce an element of intensity and suspense between two clips.
Within our trailer, we introduced this specific transition between almost every other clip,
resulting in a contrasted and dramatic flow throughout. In some parts, we timed them
in sync with the repetitive, loud ‘booms’ heard, as a dark, mysterious, back screen
would accompany a fierce, powerful noise, demonstrating parallel sound.
Additionally, we applied the ‘fade to black’ editing style towards the end of our trailer to
subtly present the title of our film, slowly drawing a close to all of the tension and fast
paced action previously shown. By doing this, a contrast is created, making the title of
the film one of the most impactful and memorable moments of the trailer. Again,
following the conventions of general teaser trailers, this successfully enables the
audience to remember the film name, therefore more likely to go and view it in cinema
and/or do further research of it on social media, film posters and magazines.
This is hugely similar to ‘Gone Girl’s’ teaser ending,
as they too feature a fade to black in order to softly
yet beneficially present their film title.
6. Sound
In teaser trailers, sound is something in which is used to set the genre and atmosphere of the trailer, adding to the
action taking place. Either non-diegetic or diegetic, sound within teasers is featured through various forms,
commonly as voice overs, sound effects and music, all in which go towards establishing the genre. For example,
in ‘Gone girl’ the sound in which is displayed is mostly through a non-diegetic soundtrack and voiceovers, both
distinguishing genre conventions, making the trailer more interesting and tense to watch. The voiceovers are of
the characters involved, and are all about the missing protagonist Amy, linking to the psychological thriller / crime
genre. By including voice overs, it reinforces the face pace of the trailer and makes it easier for the audience to be
narrated through the brief storyline, demonstrating a fearful and guilty tone within the character’ voices. The music
Soundtrack is played in coordination with the voiceovers, through the use of a slow and calm pace, emphasizing
the tension evoked through contrapuntal sound. There is a small amount of diegetic sound included through
dialogue, but only short exchanges of words, in order to avoid giving too much of the narrative away to the
audience.
Unlike ‘Gone Girl’, in our teaser trailer we didn’t include a separate voice over, instead we used dialogue to explain
key elements of the trailer, such as where the missing protagonist was last seen. However, to create a stronger
sense of enigma and suspense within the audience, we firstly began displaying the dialogue diegetic- ally,
demonstrating parallel sound, which we then, as the dialogue progressed, displayed non-diegetic – ally over
visuals of the protagonist. We found that this was an extremely effective way of producing the dialogue, as it
portrayed a contrast significantly within one vital speech, emphasizing the importance of it. It also made the
audiences imagination and interpretations of the protagonist come to life visually, as the use of the diegetic
dialogue meant they were unable to see the character in which the detective was describing, but did allow them to
see who was talking, something in which voiceovers in gone girl potentially didn’t do.

GONEGIRL
Our first shot features a close up shot
of the male protagonist,
demonstrating diegetic sound-
dialogue. The use of dialogue results
in the character explaining key
aspects of the narrative, allowing the
audience to figure out what genre the
film is going to be and instantly
capturing their attention. Often, in
teaser trailers a Voice over is used to
achieve a similar effect, but as 'Gone
Girl' featured dialogue instead, we
decided to do the same.
This particular character is shown
numerous times throughout our
teaser trailer, similarly to 'Gone Girl''s
male protagonist who is the first
character in which we see properly
through the use of a low angle shot.
Compared to our female protagonist,
the male's face is clearly visible and
exposed, allowing the audience to
understand his facial expressions,
establishing a connection with him. In
this case, he is represented as being
stressed and under pressure,
common conventions of portraying a
detective.
8. CameraworkBROKENHISTORY
GONEGIRL
Whereas, our female protagonist is
first seen through the use of an
establishing shot, positioned central
within the frame, yet with her back to
the audience. By having her placed
central, it emphasises the fact she is
an important character within the
narrative, though her identity remains
covered , with the audience are
unable to see her face. This connotes
an element of mystery and suspicion,
challenging the audience's first
opinions on the character. As well as
this, it evokes a distance between the
protagonist and the audience,
foreshadowing the fact she goes
missing.
Contrastingly, the female
protagonist in 'Gone Girl' is first
seen through an close up, point of
view shot, which instantly exposes
her expressions and emotions. We
do in-fact later demonstrate this,
though decided to include it later on
within the trailer, in order to keep
the mysterious tone generated and
to build suspense within the
audience.
In this case, our trailer follows and develops the
conventions of a psychological thriller substantially
more than ‘Gone Girl’ as the idea of a hidden
identity is something in which appears frequently
within this particular genre.
9. Props
Props are a vital part of mise en scene within our trailer, and also signifiers of the narrative. The use
of keys, a diary and a necklace indicate that they belong to a female character. Although they are
ordinary possessions, it is where they are located and how they are portrayed in which is significant.
Located in an empty woods, a sense of enigma is illuminated, with the use of close up cuts, extreme
close ups and pans signifying they're important props in the narrative. This works effectively, as it
follows the conventions of a psychological thriller. Props are often displayed as misplaced, reflecting
the character's state of mind, and urge to escape their reality.
'Gone girl' also does this, by displaying props, labeling them as 'clues'. Similar props such as a
diary, missing posters and police tape are featured, again in order to symbolize the female
protagonist has gone missing and a detective is attempting to figure the problem out. Although,
within 'Gone Girl' the 'clues' are shown less prominently, and for a shorter shot duration. We
decided against this, and wanted to feature our clues / props as often and for as long as we can,
emphasizing the significance of them, enabling the audience more likely to recognize and
remember them. For example, the diary within our teaser trailer is reoccurred throughout, which is
then is portrayed within our magazine cover, effectively demonstrating a form of synergy and
establishing a strong brand identity.
10. Texts and graphics
To begin with, following the conventions of a teaser trailer, we included the green age rating screen, ensuring
that the audience were aware of the appropriate age in which can view the teaser trailer. This is common in
most teaser trailers, in particular American, mainstream ones. Following this, we featured the two company
idents ‘20th century fox’ an ‘Regency’ in which appear in Gone Girl’s’ teaser trailer
The titles within our teaser closely follow the conventions of a teaser trailer, as they appear striking, eye-
catching and simple but effective. They present crucial information about the film, most importantly the film
name at the very end of the trailer. By placing it here, it means the audience have to watch the full trailer to find
out the name, and are most likely to remember it as it is the last thing they see. We followed our text as close to
‘Gone Girls’ as possible, however we unfortunately didn’t include the release date of the film. This is one of the
weaknesses within our product as the audience are unaware as to when it comes out and not giving them
enough information as where to find out more about the film through social media links, a convention of most
teaser trailers.
