1. In what ways does your media product
use, develop or challenge forms and
conventions of real media products?

2. use
• One convention I was keen to use
was special effects. My resources
where limited but managed to get
some smoke and fire effects.
• If I where to do it again I would
have actually put in the spaceship
crashing but that was out of my
skill set

3. • One other thing I used
that is quite like other
science fiction films was
to start it off with a view
of the earth from space
to tell the audience that
its is about the earth in
the first few seconds .

4. develop
• Although I could not put in the spaceship crash. Without
showing this still works well developing on conventions of
having and elaborate spaceship crash to grasp the audiences
attention.
• By having no crash then not seeing the alien it works well as
it keeps the audience questioning what is going on.

5. Challenge
• The way my opening challenges conventions is that in most
it sets up the setting of the film and main characters. Instead
it finishes with a cliff hanger that will be explained later on in
the film.

6. How does your media product
represent particular social groups?
• My product represents a
typical rural environment set
in a little village. This is so that
if something out of the
ordinary was to happen it may
well go unnoticed.
• It is also representing a typical
adult out walking his dog
which can relate to a lot of
people.
