The opening titles of "Bullet Boy" last for 41 seconds and fade in over a dark shot of a male lying down, creating mystery. There is no dialogue for the first minute, when the audience sees the main character, a young male in a bright prison cell. A long shot then shows the character separated from police by a desk, representing how he is perceived as an outcast. The character speaks for the first time with a strong London accent, establishing the British social realism setting of the film. The editing pace increases at the end, cross-cutting between the character and another male in a car to build tension and connect the two.

Research and planning
The document outlines plans for a short film scene involving one male character aged 16-20 who is approached by a group of people interrupting him on his way home. The costumes will feature black jackets and hoodies to indicate a "changed man" and youth crime themes. The location shooting is planned for outside to clearly convey the story's purpose to audiences. Potential titles are discussed that relate to the thriller genre conventions explored in the scene.
No country-for-old-men
The document describes establishing shots in the film No Country for Old Men that build mystery and tension through dark desert landscapes displayed for long periods of time. Slow pacing of the shots creates suspense as is conventional in thriller films. Mystery is also generated by images of waving grass that could represent something deeper and a policeman's unexplained oxygen tank later placed in a vehicle.
Film Pitch Preparation
This film pitch proposes a disaster film about the end of the world, focusing on what people would say and do if they only had minutes left to live. It would star four actors and be filmed on location in Chelmsford, England. Special effects like heartbeats, crashing cars, and loud bangs would convey the chaos as the world starts falling apart. The plot follows three friends trying to survive as the predicted end time of 6:00pm approaches.

Practical details include proposed actors, locations in Chelmsford, props, visual effects, music, and a budget of £3-5. The target audience would be ages 12 and older.
Pitch for insomnia [autosaved]
Kieron McKeown and Louis Price pitch their film idea "Insomnia". It follows John Dean, a young man descending into insanity seeking revenge for his parents' death, and Samuel Crooke, a former marine with PTSD who investigates deaths. The opening scene in a graveyard introduces the characters and leaves questions about how the parents died and Samuel's role. Research with Mr. Arthur and an online survey found that audiences like fast-paced thrillers that leave things uncertain and to the imagination. The target audience is 16-34 who enjoy trying to predict what will happen next.
Horror film trailer pitch mk2
This document outlines the plot, themes, locations, costumes, actors, and props for a supernatural horror film trailer. The trailer's plot involves a protagonist who discovers his own obituary from years ago and begins having visions that blur the lines between past and present. As the visions increase, the two time periods merge together, creating an unsettling experience for the audience. Key elements of the trailer include the protagonist shifting between 1920s/1940s and modern costumes, jumps scares, and shots that follow an illogical pattern to disorient viewers. Suggested locations include an interior house location and exterior areas like a church and park.
AS Media Evaluation Question 1
Our product uses horror film conventions like dark lighting and an ominous soundtrack to create tension. It tells the story of three teenage boys who are lured to an empty house by a killer clown called "Clownface." The narrative builds suspense by showing how the boys found out about the party and gradually revealing that their classmate is the killer. The film represents teenagers as reckless and naive in a way that would appeal to a teenage audience. However, the all-white cast may limit some audiences' ability to relate and calls for increased diversity in film.

1) Attractive male characters and a young cast to appeal to female viewers.
2) An action scene within the first two minutes to engage viewers.
3) An attractive female lead to appeal to both male and female viewers.

From Hell - Opening Sequence Analysis
The opening sequence of the film From Hell establishes the time period and setting of late 19th century London during the industrial revolution. Dark cinematography, costumes, and a ominous musical score set a dark and foreboding tone for a film about the Jack the Ripper murders. The sequence introduces the main character smoking alone on a street corner, hinting he may be the murderer, and also shows prostitutes by a run down pub on the outskirts of the city, establishing the social circumstances of the time.
Plan
The document discusses the mise-en-scene choices for a film sequence, including settings, costumes, makeup, lighting, characters, and sound. The interrogation room setting was popular but changes to the script ruled it out. Costumes will distinguish the homeless suspect from detectives in suits. Low key lighting and a blue-filtered lamp will create suspense. Music will set an eerie atmosphere without overwhelming dialogue.

Our target audience
This document discusses the target audience for the film "Donnie of the Dead" produced by Spikey Films and Scope Productions. The primary target age is 15-24 who will be able to identify with the main character Donnie, a clumsy buffoon. It aims to attract both male and female viewers through genres of horror, romance, and comedy. While Donnie is middle-class, the film does not explicitly target any economic group. With dialogue primarily in a southern English accent, the target region is England but the film could reach worldwide distribution through streaming services. The film does not limit its cast or audience by sexuality.
'monotonous' short Film review
This short film tells the story of a teenage boy who falls into drug addiction. Through raw and unfiltered depictions of substance abuse, bullying, and mental illness, the film presents a truthful portrayal rather than a sugar-coated one. It uses techniques like minimal dialogue, creative camerawork and editing, and symbolic wardrobe changes to follow the boy's decline over just five minutes. While brief, the film powerfully illustrates how addiction can happen to anyone and leaves the viewer wishing it was longer to further explore its compelling and realistic issues.
Evaluation q2 and q3
The document discusses how a horror film opening sequence represents social groups through its characters. The male character's identity is kept secret and he is portrayed as very dangerous, in line with stereotypical horror genre conventions. The sequence presents an uneasy atmosphere and gender stereotypes, with the male as the antagonist and female as the weak victim. The document also notes that due to the opening sequence being based on an urban myth about the Slender Man, it could be distributed by a major Hollywood studio for a worldwide cinema release and merchandise opportunities.
Analysis of 3 Similar Texts
The document analyzes three soap opera trailers from different channels - Eastenders, Emmerdale, and Hollyoaks. For each trailer, the document examines the channel it airs on, its target audience in terms of age, gender, socioeconomic status and psychographic groups. It also analyzes the storylines, technical codes like camerawork, editing, lighting and sound, and how each trailer persuades its audience. The document concludes by reflecting on similarities across the trailers that could inspire the creation of a new soap opera trailer.
Originalbrief2
The document outlines a promotional campaign for an upcoming slasher film called "Weeping Willows". It will include a promotional trailer, film poster, and magazine cover. The three pieces will share a symbiotic link through similar colors and images to maintain brand identity. Slasher films were chosen for the subgenre due to their expansive story possibilities and recognizable conventions like a masked male antagonist. Inspiration was drawn from films like Scream, Friday the 13th, and Halloween in areas like settings, victim characterization, and emphasizing the antagonist's strength. Close examination was also given to other media like posters and magazines to understand how to link the three promotional pieces through consistent branding. The campaign aims to be creative and successful
Question 1 Media Response
My media product uses conventions from real media products in its opening sequence. It begins with mysterious non-diegetic music alongside opening credits, showing the production logos. Then it does a panning shot revealing the name of the production and a glimpse of the story, which is about a burgled home. It quickly cuts to the intro action scene, which ends in a distressed setting at a very fast pace. This challenges the convention of building up tension slowly seen in films like Gone Girl, instead presenting the dilemma upfront to build anticipation using Barthes' hermeneutic code. While it includes some elements like non-diegetic music seen in thrillers generally, it contrasts Gone Girl's slower pacing and presentation of credits
Evaluation Question 5
This document discusses strategies for attracting a target audience of 15-30 year olds to a horror film. It explains that portraying stereotypical characters of the killer and victim would make it easy for the audience to understand. It also emphasizes using suspenseful camera techniques like close-ups and over the shoulder shots. Additionally, incorporating current fashion trends and a modern setting would help the younger generation relate to the film. Social media is suggested as an effective yet inexpensive way to advertise to this age group.
Horror title sequence analysis
The document analyzes and compares the opening title sequences of three horror/zombie films - Zombieland, Warm Bodies, and World War Z - to the opening title sequence created by the author. All three films establish tone and genre through their use of visuals, music, and other cinematic techniques. The author's sequence draws similarities in its use of non-diegetic music and visual elements to set an eerie yet exciting mood, though it differs in other ways like not including a voiceover. Comparing to these film sequences helps analyze how effectively the author's own work establishes expectations for the intended horror genre and target teenage audience.
Evaluation Task 4
The document provides information about the target audience, intended outcome, production companies, budget, and age classification of a film production. It also discusses feedback received and how various media theorists and concepts were applied to the production.

Feedback suggested changes to the soundtrack and establishing character roles through filters, but social media feedback was limited. Various genre conventions and concepts around narrative structure, character archetypes, and formal elements were considered.
