This document summarizes the key findings from a student's research on deconstructing four films: Trainspotting, Inception, War Games, and The Dark Knight. The student analyzed similarities across the films in their opening two minutes through the technical codes of sound, mise-en-scene, camera work, and editing. Research on film genres showed thriller films thrill audiences through diverse storylines involving victims, villains, and characters overcoming problems. The student concluded thriller films start and maintain mystery and intrigue from the beginning through their use of sound, characters in action, and hints at problems to be solved.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
2. MY DECONSTUCTIONS
The four films I deconstructed were Trainspotting,
Inception, War games and The Dark Knight.
Each of the films contains a male main role. In War
games there two of them, and in the dark knight
there's four. It shows there can be a mix of both
groups and independence.
They all involve a problem that needs to be solved, if
it be due to the characters actions or what's already
happened.
3. What do the opening two minutes of your film
deconstruction have in common?
All of my films have a element of mystery in their first
two minutes.
This is evident in War Games and The Dark Knight as
these opening scenes involve gun action, but why? The
audience is unsure.
From the first two minutes of Train spotting involves,
drugs, sex, rock and roll. Its a thriller film noir so doesn't
necessarily relate to the other deconstructions. But this
attracts a wide audience.
Interception involves gun crime as well, in a mysterious
foreign location. This as all the other deconstructions
creates fear of the unknown.
4. What is established in the first two minutes?
In the dark knight it is hard to establish what's going on.
We can see that guns are involved. These people with
masks on have broken into a sky scraper and have a
mysterious bag... Of what we don't know.
In Train spotting we can establish the main character is
on drugs, he lives for drugs and he lives in the rough
areas of Edinburgh.
In interception, we establish that the main character is
vitally hurt. And is being hunted down (and found) by a
Japanese army.
In War Games, the headquarters are in an unknown
location and revealed to no one but the undercover army.
They entre through a mirror and use guns for protection.
5. Similarities in the four technical codes:
SOUND
Use of diagectic sound occurs in Interception and
War games in the opening scene.
Trainspotting uses non-diagetic as the main
character talks over the scene
The Dark Knight jumps in straight away with the se
of intense, slow climax music.
Interception uses non-diagetic sound as it builds up
emotional tension.
6. MISE EN SCENE
All the deconstructions involve stereotypical dress.
In Trainspotting the rough looking man wears off
white vests with old jeans and worn down shoes.
The other deconstructions use clothing that fits the
part. In the first two minutes of War Games shows
the clothing and gives us an idea about what they do.
7. CAMERA WORK
Both War Games and The Dark Knight contain
tracking shots as the establishing shot. This allows
the audience to get an idea of the scene there set in.
They all use close-ups to get the characters emotion.
Shot reverse shot is used frequently as well to show
expression and the moods of the overall setting.
8. EDITING
Inception uses continuity editing throughout, this
gives us the vague idea of time. But it jump cuts to
different scenes showing non-continuity editing.
The other deconstructions all use this, to give a more
diverse impact. It also allows different scenes to be
addressed from different characters point of view
quickly. Keeping th film at a fast, thrilling pace.
9. WHAT MY GENRE RESEARCH SHOWED ME
From my REASERCH: Genre research I could see
through the decades the most important and
constant factors through all thriller films are the use
of diverse story line. These story lines are
accompanied by characters who build up sympathy.
A super villian is also connected with the main
character. Making their live evolve in an unlikely
way.
10. WHAT I HAVE LEART
I conclude that thriller films ‘thrill’ the audience from start to finish,
the story line usually involves a victim/s and a villain/s. These
characters fight in a unknown world, through relationships.
Both non-diagetic and diagetic sounds are used in the first two
minutes.
The first two minutes usually contain a mystery introductions to
possible characters in action and the problem they face. Like
Trainspotting and Inception.
Gun crime is used in all f my deconstructions. For various reasons,
self defence and for questionable harm to others. This shows thrill
straight away.
