Paranonormal activity trailer analysis
The trailer for Paranormal Activity 2 uses techniques to build suspense and anticipation in viewers. It begins with 10 seconds of blank screen and fuzzy camera effects to mimic the found footage style of the first film. After showing a key scene from the previous movie, it depicts audiences in a theater reacting fearfully to the first film, encouraging viewers to want a similar experience. The trailer cuts between different rooms in a house at night, with subtle sounds and movements hinting at a growing threat, before a loud noise startles and a time jump raises questions.

A2 Media studies: Evaluation Question One
This document summarizes how the author's media product trailer uses and challenges conventions of the real film noir genre in its form and style. Specifically, it notes that the trailer is slightly shorter than typical noir trailers but has a faster pace through quick cuts. It also uses mise-en-scene like symbolic props and costumes to create tension and intrigue as is common in noir but challenges expectations. Graphic designs employ noir tropes like silhouettes and spotlights but update them with modern fonts. Sound effects are limited to maintain continuity except in the opening logo. Overall, the trailer takes a modern approach while still drawing from classic noir conventions.
First Meeting
The document discusses ideas from four students - Me, Ammr, Aferdita and Abidur - for film openings in different genres. Abidur proposes a thriller/mystery opening involving the character Tre being strangled by an intruder while watching TV, with tense violin music building to a climax. Me proposes a sci-fi/thriller opening following Tre as he rushes out the door while a radio reports mass disappearances. Ammr and Aferdita consider but decide against a romantic comedy exploring a homosexual Muslim man facing an arranged marriage.
Question 1 evaluation media
The opening sequence of the film conforms to many comedy film conventions but also has its own unique tone. It introduces the three main characters to allow the audience to understand their roles. It includes dialogue after the first minute to establish each character's personality. It also uses a recognizable background song, Bon Jovi's "Wanted Dead or Alive", to hint at the plot about a dead hitman. The title of the film appears after the characters are introduced and the comedy begins, a common convention. While subtly including the main prop of a moped, it doesn't focus entirely on it. Some conventions were avoided, like a close-up of the main character or dialogue that fully reveals the plot, to better engage

Potential film titles are considered before deciding on "Reversal". In conclusion, the author feels confident moving ahead with their original silent film idea after addressing concerns from primary research.
Kill bill
Quentin Tarantino uses nonlinear storytelling techniques like flashbacks and flashforwards in the opening scenes of Kill Bill. This allows the audience to understand events that happened before to lead up to the current situation. The opening scene shows the Bride crying in black and white to set the scene in the past, before cutting to Bill's shoes approaching in color to transition to the present. Split screens are also used to establish tension, showing the Bride unaware of an impending threat as ominous music plays. Tarantino references other films through shots and styles to set tones and allude to the power dynamics between characters.
Question 1
This document discusses the genre and conventions of the filmmaker's short crime/thriller film. It identifies the film as belonging to the crime and neo-noir genres. It follows a classic "who done it" structure and includes elements like black and white shots and piano music to reference neo-noir. Unlike other detective films, it uses black and white in parts to signify flashbacks. It was influenced by films like Prisoners, Out of the Past, and The Usual Suspects. Barthes codes of enigma, action, symbolism, and references to film noir genre are applied. While following genre guidelines, the film has freedom to pursue its own storyline and can be considered a hybrid genre film

- The trailer for Goodnight Mommy uses slow pacing and editing in the beginning to build tension, then increases pace near the end. It also uses intertitles effectively to provide reviews, split sections, and heighten tension.
- The trailer for The Carrier starts with production company logos to promote them. It then uses establishing shots and diegetic sound to set up the scenario of a global disease. As with most horror trailers, it begins slowly and increases pace and action after 45 seconds to heighten tension. It also provides intertitles with positive reviews to encourage viewership.
In class analysis of teaser trailers
The document analyzes and compares several movie teaser trailers:
1. Inception's teaser is fast-paced and shows only a few action clips without dialogue to tease the plot and set the tone through music.
2. Cemetery Junction's teaser uses only dialogue from the director comedians to signal the comedy genre in an original risky way.
3. Eternal Sunshine's teaser reveals more of the plot than usual for an independent film, using music and celebrity names to attract audiences.
4. Paranormal Activity's teaser mixes film clips with audience reactions to clearly signal the horror genre.
5. Die Hard 4.0's teaser establishes the
Evaluation question one
The media product adheres to conventions of real action/thriller films by using techniques like continuity editing, shot reverse shot, and incorporating common elements like fight scenes, chase scenes, suspenseful music, and angled shots to convey power dynamics. It was also inspired by films like Citizen Kane and The Dark Knight Rises in its visual style and use of monochrome filters to build tension. The title sequence references Avengers by panning between relevant objects, and shots are taken from films like Breaking Bad to depict specific emotions or situations.

Question 1
This document analyzes the conventions used in the opening sequences of psychological horror films and compares them to the student's own media production. It finds that the student's opening followed several conventions, such as introducing the distribution companies, using a dramatic title design in white text on black, limited camera movement, establishing shots, and unsettling non-diegetic music. However, the student also challenged some conventions by having their first scene in daylight rather than low light, using more midshots rather than just close-ups, and minimizing issues with diegetic sound editing. The analysis found the student both effectively utilized common horror film techniques but also developed elements of their own to surprise the audience.
Question 1
While the film opening uses some conventional elements of the mystery/thriller genre, such as including a cellar setting, it also challenges conventions in two key ways:
1) It reveals the crime (a girl's abduction) upfront rather than revealing it later, involving the audience earlier in trying to solve the crime.
2) It features an unconventional element of a man in a mask, whose identity is unknown, whereas audiences normally would know the identity of the criminal.
The film title "The Absence" and red font color are meant to provide clues about the genre and narrative while not fully giving away the plot, conforming somewhat to conventions while still creating intrigue for audiences.
Media paranorm
The trailer summarizes the plot of Paranormal Activity 3, which follows two young girls who have been haunted by a demon from a young age. The film is set 18 years prior to the first two films. The trailer shows happy scenes of the girls at home that become increasingly tense and scary. It establishes that the film is found footage style, with cameras placed around the house by the parents to capture paranormal activity. The trailer effectively builds tension and intrigue without revealing too much of the story to attract audiences to the film.
Opening sequence analysis
The document discusses the opening sequences of three films - Se7en, The Babadook, and Saw. It analyzes the use of editing techniques, color connotations, titling styles, and images in each opening to set mood, build tension, engage audiences, and foreshadow themes/events in the films. Specifically, it notes how the openings of Se7en and Saw use fast pacing and partial images to create mystery, while The Babadook slowly establishes characters and atmosphere. Color symbolism of black, grey, and blue is also used to connote darkness, depression, and gloom across the three films.

Draft of Question 1
This document discusses how the media product uses and challenges conventions of film noir genre. It summarizes that the opening sequence includes characters like gangsters and detectives to follow noir conventions. However, it challenges conventions by having one character fulfill multiple roles. The sequence uses settings like alleys and bars commonly seen in noir but challenges conventions through the locations chosen. It incorporates themes of murder, betrayal and jealousy demonstrated through one character rather than many. The sequence follows flashback and narration conventions but pushes boundaries by breaking the fourth wall and having the character speak directly to the audience. Overall, the opening sequence aims to intrigue audiences using noir conventions while also challenging expectations through unconventional character roles and story approaches.

Task 1 photograph research
This document discusses different applications of photography across several industries: advertising, fashion, music, sports, photojournalism, and fine art. For each industry, it provides examples of famous photographers and some of their work. In advertising, photography is used to sell products through appealing images in various media. Fashion photography helps brands promote their designs in magazines and stores. Music photography promotes bands through album covers and magazines. Sports photography documents and promotes sporting events. Photojournalism captures important historical events for media. Fine art photography conveys emotional stories open to interpretation.
Manual camera settings
The document discusses different manual camera settings including aperture, shutter speed, and ISO. It defines aperture as the opening in a camera lens that controls the amount of light passing through, with a lower F-number indicating a larger aperture. Shutter speed determines how long the camera shutter is open and controls exposure time, with slower speeds allowing more light. ISO refers to the light sensitivity of the camera sensor, with higher ISO numbers allowing pictures in lower light but resulting in more image noise. Examples are provided of how different aperture and shutter speed combinations affect the overall exposure and quality of photos.
Photography rules
The document discusses several rules and techniques of photography including the rule of thirds, framing, leading lines, balancing elements, symmetry and patterns, and depth of field. The rule of thirds involves dividing an image into thirds both vertically and horizontally to place important elements. Framing focuses the viewer's attention on the subject. Leading lines guide the eye through an image from foreground to background. Balancing elements balances the weight of the main subject with other objects.

Similarities
Both magazines use a single frontal image on the cover looking directly at the viewer. The titles of both magazines are partially obscured by the images, indicating their widespread recognition. They both use red and black colors, but in different ways. The Rolling Stone magazine conveys a brighter, happier feel while Hammer has a darker, grittier tone reflecting their different target audiences. The image on Hammer is more obscured and layered compared to the clearer image and lighting used on Rolling Stone.
Miley 1
The magazine cover uses design elements to draw attention to Miley Cyrus as the exclusive cover story. A large headline proclaims "Miley Cyrus" as the main attraction, while her provocative photo takes up most of the cover space using the rule of thirds. Although the Rolling Stone masthead is blocked by the image, its fame means readers will recognize it without seeing the name. The blurred background and placement of additional text also keeps the focus on Miley Cyrus as the headline star.
Marilyn manson
The magazine cover uses various design elements to engage its target audience of heavy metal fans aged 17-25. The masthead is obscured by an image of Marilyn Manson, signaling that the magazine is so well known its title does not need to be prominently displayed. Use of metal-associated fonts further hints at the magazine's musical focus. A direct gaze from Manson's main image works to draw viewers in and convey a sense of being watched. Clear cover lines in all capital letters draw attention to featured artists and stories. Layering of fonts, images and cover lines, along with dark color scheme of black, red and white, match the aesthetic expected by the target demographic.

Final double page

Final major project_proposal_form_updated
- 1. Salford City College Eccles Sixth Form Centre BTEC Extended Diploma in Creative Media Production Unit 4: Final Major Project Proposal Form Chloe Whittle Media Format (film, documentary, motion graphics, photography, animation, graphic design etc) Synopsis of Idea (content, narrative, genre) I have chosen to make a short film due to the fact I have gathered loads of ideas in what’s going to happen in my short film. My short film will also feature non diegetic and diegetic sound. The non-diegetic sound will be suspenseful music to get the audiences emotions working. The diegetic music will be the talking in my short film. With my film being a zombie film I will have to focus a lot on prosthetics which will be the makeup of the zombies. In order for my film to work and be effective is if the make ups very detailed and very well put together. I will use make up wax which will allow me to create wounds wich look realistic. In order to make the wounds look as realistic as possible I will have to practice before hand. My short film will be a zombie film like I’ve said before however my short film will have a story. My short film will begin with a couple living in a underground cellar which will be very run down. They have very little food therefore the husband has to go out and look around for food while his wife stays at home and protects the cellar from any zombies. We will see the husband rummage around a house looking for food and killing any zombie sin the process. However while he’s looking around for food he doesn’t notice a zombie standing behind him which then attacks him. The audience doesn’t see if he gets bit or scratched to begin with. He then returns home to his wife with food but begins to feel very unwell. The camera will pan around to the husbands back revelling that he has been scratched. He’s then reluctant to tell his wife because he’s the only person she’s got. However he becomes to feel very unwell and becomes very pale. His wife then realises what’s happened. There will then be a very sad scene with the wife trying to help him but failing to do so. He then dies and leaves his wife alone. The last shot will show the wife stood in a corner crying when her husband’s hand twitches and his eyes open revelling he has turned. The story I have chosen to do is a very easy story to follow so it doesn’t require the audience to think too much. My film will fit under a majority of genres from Apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic fiction, Thriller, Drama, Suspense, Adventure Film and Horror. My short film will feature each one of the genres I have mentioned and will have a lot of suspenseful moments which you expect in a zombie film. Target Audience? (demographic NOT age range) My target audience will been older teenagers and young adults. My short film will be aimed at male and female however the male gender is usually attracted more to zombie films then female. However due to my story being a love story this will hopefully attract a female audience also. People who have watched other zombie films such as dawn of the dead, Shaun of the dead, The walking dead will also be my main target audience which is why I have used these films and TV shows as influences. My short film will also be targeted at all ethnicities due to the fact I will use more than one ethnicity in my short film to show that there’s no discrimination. Target Audience The audience will wish to expect many things when watching a zombie film.
- 2. Salford City College Eccles Sixth Form Centre BTEC Extended Diploma in Creative Media Production Unit 4: Final Major Project Proposal Form Chloe Whittle Needs? Blood will be a main aspect the audience will expect to see in my zombie film. If there’s no blood in a zombie film then it’s not a good zombie film at all. They will also expect to see a protagonist who’s not scared of anything and who’s willing to risk his life for his family. This is seen in a lot of zombie films such as the walking dead and Shaun of the dead. My audience will also expect to see an actual zombie, which sounds very obvious however the zombies will have to have something done to them to make it clear to the audience that they are zombies. Therefore the make-up will have to be very detailed and clear so it looks effective and that the zombies actually look like zombies. The walking dead is a good example due to the fact the zombies make up is very detailed and very effective. The make-up will also add to the scare of the zombie film and hopefully leave a lasting image in the audiences mind. The audience will also expect suspense which is another key feature in a zombie film. The suspense in a zombie film adds to the scare and the enjoyment of the film due to the fact the audience will be on the edge of their seats. It also can play with the audiences emotions making them jump or as I said before scared. How will your project meet the needs of your target audience? (Make reference to content you think will appeal to your target audience) My short film will feature all the codes and conventions that the audience expect out of a zombie film. As I’ve touched on before there will be many suspenseful moments which will get the audiences hearts racing such as when the husbands attacked by a zombie from behind which he doesn’t know is there. Music will also add to this which I will access from online which I will download and fit accordingly with my film. This would be nondiegetic sound. With this scene I wish to shock the audience which is how I would meet the needs of the audience. The suspense will add to the enjoyment of the film. Also one of the main characters will die in my film which is very common in zombie films or TV shows such as the walking dead where many of the main characters die. The film will also feature a lot of blood and gore which is a must in a zombie film. This can be done with fake blood and make up which can be done with special wax which is used in a lot of zombie films. The audience will defiantly expect to see this in a zombie film due to the fact that’s one of the main reasons a lot of people watch zombie films. What production techniques will you use to realise your project? My short film will feature a lot of different camera angles to make it more interesting. The camera angles will range from high angle to low angle shots. The camera shots will range from medium, long, close up, extreme close up, over the shoulder shots and many others in order like I’ve said before to make my short film more interesting. It will also use sound which I’ve mentioned before diegetic and nondiegetic which will range throughout my movie. The lighting will be made from natural lighting from the sun due to the fact I would like to film in the day or early in the morning. I will film early in the morning when the streets are empty to get a real feel towards the
- 3. Salford City College Eccles Sixth Form Centre BTEC Extended Diploma in Creative Media Production Unit 4: Final Major Project Proposal Form Chloe Whittle movie. To put my movie together I will use adobe premiere and also after effects. Adobe after effects will allow me to play around with my movie adding certain effects if necessary. In a lot of zombie films a lot of cgi is used which I am not capable off. However to make my film as effective as possible I will use after effects too see what I can do.
