Conventions of trailers
Trailers must highlight the best parts of the film, such as dramatic fighting scenes, and showcase the starring actors to attract audiences. Shots are often brief to tease what viewers will see. Dialogue uses one-liners and voiceovers may convey a character's feelings. Titles typically appear at the end, with credits throughout. Conventionally, trailers establish characters, build pace through shots, then climax abruptly.

Darcu evaluation q1)
The document discusses how the media product, a film trailer for "Delilah", both follows and challenges conventions of real media products. It follows conventions such as using titles over shots, short visual images to build narrative, and changing music to match changes in action. However, it challenges conventions by using unusual camera angles to imply a non-typical romance, having the female character destroy the relationship rather than the male, and including lyrics in the music rather than using solely instrumental songs. The trailer overall aims to provide an intimate look at the developing and breaking down of relationships through unique visual and audio techniques.
Goodfellas (new presentation)
The document discusses how the film Goodfellas uses various techniques of mise-en-scène, including lighting, staging, setting, and costumes to convey meaning and themes. Specifically, it provides examples of how the film uses red lighting in opening scenes to set a mood of danger and anxiety, and strategically positions characters through staging to express their roles. It also notes how the film incorporates real-world settings and locations from the events to achieve an authentic documentary style.
Title Sequence Techniques
A title sequence introduces a film's title and cast and helps set the mood. There are four main types: discrete sequences that stand alone to immerse viewers; stylized sequences that use editing and effects; credits over a blank screen with fitting music; and narrative openings that show characters as credits appear. The document discusses these types and concludes that credits over a blank screen would be most effective for the film discussed, due to limited editing skills.
Art of the title sequnce
The document discusses different types of title sequences: Discrete sequences use animation and editing to set mood without revealing the plot. Traditional sequences use fonts and sound to clearly communicate the genre and set atmosphere through basic elements. Straight Into sequences start directly into action or intense scenes to hook viewers without titles. Stylised sequences combine aspects of Discrete and Straight Into styles to immerse viewers in the tone and genre without revealing the plot.

The title is revealed at the end to aid recall, and an anti-climax is created to emphasize the comedy genre.
Title sequences ppt

Oasis
The Morning Glory album by Oasis was very successful, propelling them from an indie crossover band to worldwide fame. The album cover features two men walking down an empty street with lights on, conveying a message of drugs creating an illusion and distancing oneself from society. Some key aspects analyzed are:
- The clothing and slight color offset suggest an indie genre.
- For only their second album, the cover shows little of their star image, going against promoting themselves but allowing great success.
- Oasis attracted a mature audience like most other British indie/britpop bands, bringing something new with their advanced lyrics and sound.
Oasis
Morning Glory was Oasis' breakthrough album, propelling them from an indie crossover band to worldwide fame. It spent 10 weeks at number 1 in the UK album charts and reached number 4 in the US, with 4 number 1 singles. The album cover depicts two men walking down an empty street with lights on, representing distancing from society when under the influence of drugs, linking to the album's title about drugs being an illusion. The basic font of the title and desaturated colors portray an organic band more focused on their music than image.
Bugg
This summary analyzes Jake Bugg's self-titled debut album cover. The album cover features Bugg's face slightly off-center, looking downwards rather than directly at the audience, suggesting he cares more about the music than his own image. His casual, zipped-up jacket and mod haircut reinforce this, showing he is influenced by bands like Oasis but does not care about lavish appearances. The basic cover conveys that Bugg is detached from the industry and enjoys making music for fans. It also prominently features the self-titled album name, allowing his name to be promoted and become known for his first album as an unknown artist.
American idiot
The document discusses the album cover of the punk rock band The Ramones and how various design elements convey their authentic punk image. The large bold font of their name stands out and looks plain rather than fancy. The black and white photo against a light background emphasizes their dark clothes and punk genre. The brick background and stances of the band members portray an organic, earthy, urban and streetwise image that aligns with their punk movement.
Rudimental
The document summarizes and compares the music video for the song "Not Giving In" by Rudimental to the video the author's band wants to create. Some key points:
1) "Not Giving In" tells a narrative story of a boy who chooses dancing over a life of crime, relating to the author's idea of their video featuring a boy pursuing his dreams of music.
2) Both videos will feature shots of run-down areas and aim to encourage strength and perseverance in difficult times.
3) The author believes Rudimental's target audience and message are similar to their own band's, trying to help people who experienced painful childhoods.
4) Rudiment
Organic synthetic album cover analysis
The album cover for Eminem's "Recovery" features him walking away from the camera down a yellow-lined road against an arid backdrop. His dark clothing suggests despair and isolation. The yellow road may signify the path forward. The blurred background represents an uncertain future. The title references recovery from adversity through wordplay and a medical symbol.
The album cover for Rihanna's "Rated R" shows her in dark makeup with heavy jewelry, covering her face. This contrasts with her usually confident public image and suggests she wants to appear powerful rather than sexy after personal struggles. The monochrome color scheme and her obscured face lend mystery and strength.
Organic vs synthetic
The document discusses two approaches in the music industry - the organic ideology and the synthetic approach. The organic approach means the record company helps the artist build their own image through their music, gaining success organically, while organic artists are seen as less enhanced. In contrast, the synthetic approach constructs successful artists through a combined effort determining the artist's image to attract the biggest audience, and synthetic artists have less time to prove successful. Examples are given of artists representing each approach.
Video phone
The music video for Beyonce's "Videophone" references other works like the film Reservoir Dogs and pin-up model Bettie Page to add context and hype. It uses intertextuality and zooms in on Beyonce during the chorus to engage the audience and identify her as the star. Certain lyrics and shots of Beyonce are intended to enhance her sex appeal and image as a pop artist.
Analysis of a music video
The document summarizes the music video for the Green Day song "Basket Case". It notes that the video shows the band playing live in a mental asylum to convey the punk rock genre of the song. The asylum setting and portrayal of the band members as patients in distress reflects the song's theme about mental instability. The fast pacing of the music is matched by quick cuts in the video that enhance the narrative of the band members being psychotic.
Intro to cameras
The document provides an introduction to setting up and using cameras. It discusses attaching the camera to a tripod using a screw, and attaching the tripod to a dolly to allow for panning and smooth movement. The tripod has three shafts that can be unscrewed to adjust the camera height for different shots. White balance settings like auto, tungsten, and daylight are explained to adjust color according to lighting conditions. Parts of the camera like the lens with focus, zoom, and frame rollers, a spirit level, and monitor are identified. Finally, different camera shots like over the shoulder, close up, high angle, low angle, and wide are defined.
