The document discusses how the opening of a horror film media product challenges conventions through its characterization and style. Specifically:
- It features a female antagonist, challenging the typical male antagonist. Her casual demeanor undermines the male detective's authority.
- It uses slower editing and more dialogue than typical fast-paced horror openings. Tension is built through the conversation rather than cutting.
- The title uses a plain font rather than a bold horror-related font, which challenges conventions.
- Other unconventional elements include the use of a clock ticking to indicate time passing, normal clothing rather than horror-themed costumes, and conveying horror through shots other than close-ups of props.
Q1
The document discusses how the media product challenges and develops conventions of real media products in the horror genre. It uses flashbacks and gruesome imagery like blood to distinguish scenes, drawing from films like Bonnie and Clyde. Props like knives and cigarettes also help establish the horror and film noir genres. Character archetypes and settings like the abandoned warehouse are conventional. While the editing pace challenges conventions by being slower, the camera work and sound design are generally conventional for horror.
Proposal[1]
The document outlines a group's proposal for a thriller film opening. It discusses ideas that were rejected, such as having a female stalker or starting with a murder. Inspiration was drawn from films like Cloverfield and The Saw that used found footage or cut scenes. The group will star in the opening themselves as four girls making a home video when power cuts out and an unknown man begins watching and knocking on windows. The proposal provides details on casting, music, and how the opening meets thriller conventions.
Evaluation question 1
This document summarizes how the media product uses and develops conventions of horror film trailers. It analyzed trailers like "30 Days of Night" and "Jennifer's Body" to understand conventions like victims screaming, blood, and quick shots. It features an innocent young girl as the protagonist, a common victim type. The lighting gradually darkens and a jump scare is included, both common techniques. It keeps some camera shot conventions but leaves ambiguity around whether the young girl is the protagonist or antagonist, challenging expectations.
Question 4
The document discusses audience research conducted on a student horror film. A questionnaire was administered after a screening to gauge audience understanding, opinions and reactions. While most understood the basic plot, some were confused about specific details like the identity of the murderer and the reason for questioning a character. However, the audience generally enjoyed the film and rated it as tense, with most saying they would recommend it. The research showed the film was mostly successful in engaging the target audience, but could have provided more clarity on some plot points.
Question 4
The document discusses research conducted on the target audience for a horror film project. It found that the core audience is 15-24 year old males who enjoy gaming and viral marketing. They prefer genres like thriller, gangster and horror films with gory elements. Research was conducted through questionnaires during production and a screening after to assess how well the audience understood the plot. The screening showed overall understanding was good, though some details like the murderer's identity could have been clearer. Most said they would recommend the film.
evaluation question 1
This document discusses how the media product of a film trailer for "Retribution" challenges and uses conventions of real horror film trailers and movies. It analyzes trailers for films like The Purge and Annabelle to understand typical conventions like fast pacing, action shots, and revealing plot details. The Retribution trailer incorporates conventions like mysterious masked killers instead of a single murderer. It also shoots in conventional horror locations like woods and dark rooms. While following conventions like flashbacks and disturbing shots, the trailer challenges conventions by showing someone being taken and held at gunpoint. The film poster and magazine cover also emulate conventions of typical horror marketing materials.

The student is pleased with the final cut trailer, feeling it achieved a professional look and will appeal to their target audience.
Questions 4&5 evaluation
The document discusses the target audience and marketing strategy for a student film project. The target audience is identified as 15-24 year old males based on research showing they prefer films with high suspense themes like the student's hitman film. Feedback from test screenings with film students was positive and led to minor edits to improve shots and add background music. To attract their target audience, the filmmakers employed thriller conventions, maintained an aura of mystery around the protagonist's identity through camera angles, and used an escalating musical score to build suspense throughout the opening sequence until a climactic reveal.
Evaluation part 4 powerpoint
The document summarizes feedback from an evaluation screening of a student film trailer. It received criticism for not clearly conveying the narrative and plot points in the trailer. Specifically, it was unclear that two of the four teenagers featured in the title had already been killed. The document also notes praise for the throat cutting special effect at the end of the trailer and areas for potential improvement such as adding more dialogue between characters.
Horror genre analysis.
The document discusses the horror genre of films. It states that horror films aim to shock and scare audiences through gory and disturbing scenes. The intended audience is ages 12 and up, as younger viewers could be psychologically damaged. The purpose of horror films is to feature a threatening force that the protagonist must overcome, conveying messages about facing one's fears. For a horror film to be successful, it needs to scare the audience. While techniques have advanced, the goal remains to shock or unnerve viewers.
Detailed research
The document analyzes three horror film trailers:
1) Insidious 2 establishes the genre through scary music and reactions. It reveals much of the plot.
2) The Crazies effectively uses fast pacing, sound effects, and sad music to scare audiences. It reveals less of the plot.
3) The Woman in Black appeals most due to its star actor and anticipation created without revealing much of the narrative.
All three trailers effectively employ fast pacing, wording formats, and similar fonts to professionally generate fear and interest audiences in the films.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation results
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

Evaluation Part 4
- 1. EVALUATION: PART FOUR BY AIDAN KEENAN
- 2. Our audience feedback highlighted several positive elements of our trailer and also generated a few criticisms. Positives aspects highlighted included the effectiveness of the make-up effects on the zombies, which was almost universally praised by the class, the music, which many people found humorous or dramatic, and the narrative, which was praised as highly original, as it featured a character, the butcher, who has never really been present in a horror film. Criticisms brought up focussed on the lack of close-ups, saying that more should have been present to increase the tension. The text was also brought up as a problem, with half the class saying they didnโt like it and the other half either praising it or not commenting on it. Another aspect brought up by a few people was the lack of a jump scare at the end, saying that without it โโฆthe trailer wasnโt overly scary, but instead mainly just creepy and a bit funny.โ Overall, we received and average score of 7.5 out of 10, with seven people giving it 7, four people giving it 8 and one person giving it a 9. What have you learnt from your audience feedback?
- 3. We focused on making the trailer longer, as initially it was too short. We also focussed on making the gore effects more obvious and prevalent in the trailer, with a few being more comedic, adding to the comedy side of our trailer. This way, our trailer will be able to be enjoyed by a larger audience. What last minute changes did you make to your trailer after the evaluation screening?
- 4. When I initially started this project, I was very adverse to the idea of creating a zombie film. Many zombie films are terrible movies with a weak plot and their only feature being a ton of overly gross gore effects. However, after working on this project and seeing the finished result, I am very pleased with our work. I believe we have successfully constructed a zombie movie with an original storyline and an adequate level of gore. It also holds a laughable comedic element over it, allowing the viewer to laugh while at the same time being scared or grossed out by the gore. I believe that if our film was to actually be made, it would be as popular as the films that inspired it, like Shaun of the Dead (2004) and Zombieland (2009) I believe our wide target audience would be appealed to successfully as we have managed to create an equal balance of gore and comedy. Therefore, we would be able to attract both Individuals and Reformers as well as Mainstreamers. My favourite aspect of the trailer would have to be the music. I think it adds an excellent dose of drama and tension to the trailer, highlighting the horror in key points, while also providing comic relief by being overly dramatic in certain sections The music, in my opinion, is the key factor in making our trailer a horror-comedy instead of just a horror. Are you happy with your finished trailer? Do you think it would appeal to your target audience? What is your favourite aspect of your trailer and why?
