Sports films have been made for over a century, starting as comedies or dramas but more recently incorporating documentary styles. The sports genre is popular for films because they have a built-in audience of fans of the particular sport. Filmmakers can easily advertise their sports films at sporting events or on sports TV programs to reach this target audience. Sports films generally fall into two categories - documentary style films that use interviews and footage of the real athlete or team, and fictional films that follow an imagined character's career using fictional sporting events and emotional scenes about success and failure.

Simon friths 3 music video typologiess
Simon Frith identified three main types of music videos: performance videos which show the artist performing the song live or in a concert-like setting; narrative videos which tell a story related to the song's lyrics, typically a love story; and conceptual videos which are more surreal or obscure and aim to constantly entertain the audience through unusual ideas or visuals like Ok Go's choreographed dance routine on treadmills.

The story is about a man who is murdered along with his friends. He finds himself reliving the 30 seconds leading up to his death over and over again. During this time, he must search for clues to help him investigate who killed him and why in order to prevent it from happening. The opening scene shows the three friends walking together when one is shot from behind. When he relives the scene, the main character realizes he has a limited time to search for clues around the crime scene and on his glitching phone to solve his own murder.

Effective theme tunes are short, catchy, have a verse/chorus structure, are often sung and up-tempo, and link to the opening credits while describing the narrative.

Genre analysis
Sports films have been made for over a century, starting as comedies and dramas but more recently incorporating documentary styles. The sports genre is popular in films because there is a built-in audience of fans of the particular sport who filmmakers can easily advertise to. This ensures there is already interest from a large fan base. Successful sports films often focus on boxing or American football and feature prominent actors like Sylvester Stallone or Harrison Ford. Sports films generally fall into categories - documentaries using interviews and footage, tribute films looking back at great athletes, or fictional films following made-up careers.
Props
Matt Wood is using his own football for a film prop because he already owns one that is in good condition and high quality, which will help make it look like an important football match is taking place. He will also use a water bottle in the film as a prop because it is accessible and can be used to suggest it is during a football match.

3) Unusual close-up camera shots are used instead of the standard wide shots of boxing, making viewers feel like they are part of the intense action and linked to the characters.

Evaluation 4
This document discusses aspects of targeting an audience for a gangster film, including:
- Creating a mood board with screenshots from films like Goodfellas and The Godfather to convey the genres of strong violence, special effects, and a love story.
- The intended audience is ages 17-40, as younger viewers may find strong language and violence offensive, and older viewers may find some aspects offensive. It targets a typical heterosexual and working/middle class audience.
- Feedback from test audiences noted modern aspects like a gun and clothing that prevented the opening from seeming set in the 1960s as intended, so clarification was added that it is actually set in the 1990s in the style of 1960s

Evaluation
The document evaluates the student's media product, a crime thriller film. It follows conventions of the genre, such as a character being kidnapped early on. It challenges conventions by introducing the antagonists early rather than halfway through like in Se7en. The film represents teenage male characters stereotypically and their social class is not important to the plot. The film could be distributed by an independent British film company due to its low budget. The target audience is males aged 16-30 and the BBFC rating would be 15 rather than 18 like similar films due to less graphic violence.

Types of music video
Performance music videos simply show the artist performing the song, providing a cheap and easy format. Narrative music videos tell a story related or unrelated to the song, potentially including clips from associated films. Conceptual music videos are based on a concept rather than a narrative, using editing and effects but being more expensive and less relatable. Most successful music videos combine elements from different types to appeal to wider audiences while remaining costly to produce.

Recce
This document lists three short phrases: "Recce", "My Bedroom", and "Ringwood Leisure Centre Astro Turf". It appears to be a list of three brief topics or locations but provides no other context or details about them.

Matt Wood created a production schedule for filming scenes on January 10th, 2016. The schedule details that scene 1 will be filmed at Ringwood astro turf and requires Matt, Will, and Mischa along with a camera, tripod, and microphone. Scene 2 is scheduled to be filmed at Matt's house and will involve Matt and Ian using a camera, tripod, and microphone.
Script
Matt is preparing to take a penalty kick during a football match. He ties his shoes, drinks some water, and places the ball on the penalty spot as his teammate Mischa wishes him good luck. Matt successfully scores the penalty, and Mischa celebrates with him. The scene then dissolves to Matt asleep in his bedroom. His father wakes him up, concerned that Matt will be late for school. Matt sits up groggily in response.
Equipment list
Matt Wood outlines the equipment he will use for his film project, including a Canon 600D camera that can shoot in 1080p HD, a tripod to provide stable footage without shaking, an SD card to store large amounts of footage during filming, and Adobe Premiere Pro editing software that he is familiar with from prior experience.

Shot list
The shot list describes 9 shots to capture a penalty kick scene, including medium shots of the player preparing for the kick and celebrating, close ups of the player's and goalie's eyes, and wide shots showing the run up, ball in air, and goal. Shots will include medium and close ups of the player and goalie as well as wide shots showing the pitch, goal, and celebration with a teammate.
Target audience
My target audience will primarily be male football fans, as a survey found 85% of Premier League fans were male. While 11% of fans were aged 16-24 in 2007/2008, the average age is now 41. To promote the football film, advertising during football TV programs and near stadiums using billboards would be effective strategies since they directly reach this intended audience of football fans.
Film beginning analysis bend it like beckham
The opening scene of Bend It Like Beckham establishes the central conflict of the film. Jess scores the winning goal for Manchester United while commentators praise her talent, but her mother interrupts, bursting into her room to force her to attend her sister's engagement instead of watching football. Though Jess dreams of becoming a football star, her traditional Hindu family disapproves and tries to restrict her choices in order to conform to expectations of femininity. Visual cues like their contrasting outfits and body language further illustrate Jess' rebellion against her mother's authority and worldview.
Film beginning analysis
Bend It Like Beckham (2002) opens with football commentary by John Motson over footage of a Manchester United match, setting the scene of the sport. During the opening credits, the commentary describes Manchester United's need for a goal in the match being shown. The opening establishes the film's focus on football through combining credits with commentary and footage of an actual game.
Mise en scene
Mise-en-scène refers to the visual elements of a theatrical production or film that establish time, location, and story. It has five key aspects: settings and props provide context about the genre and plot; costume, hair, and makeup reveal character traits; facial expressions and body language convey emotions and intentions; lighting and color are used to draw attention or set mood; and positioning of characters and objects can indicate relationships or importance. Mise-en-scène uses these visual elements to tell the story in an artistic way.

It provides definitions for common establishing shots like wide shots and close-ups that give different levels of information. It also explains dynamic shots like crane shots and aerial views. Additionally, it outlines different point-of-view shots and shot reverse shots used when characters interact. The document also defines common camera movements like pans, tilts, zooms and dolly shots that follow or change the camera's perspective on the action.
Editing
Editing is used to keep a story moving while immersing the audience. The purposes of editing in drama sequences are identification, conflict, and intensification. The goal is to make action as fluid as possible without drawing attention to the construction process. Editing pace, whether slow or fast, shows emotion or tension. Juxtaposition contrasts different shots to create meaning. A story gains meaning from the cuts between shots and there is always a reason for a cut.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Genre analysis
- 1. Matt Wood Genre Analysis Sports films have been around for over a century and they were someof the original films. They started out mainly as comedies or dramas in the early-mid 20th century but since then there have been moredocumentary style films. The sports genre often appears in films as there is an easy to find and target audience – fans of the particular sportin the film. Thereforeit is easy for film makers to advertisetheir films. They may do so at one of the sport’s events or during one of the TV programmes. Sportfilms generally fall into one of two categories; a documentary or a film following a fictional career. In the documentary style sports films, the film is usually made up of various interviews fromthe sports star or members of a team, footageof the sports that the athlete/team participated in, interviews with family and friends as well as narration. An example of a documentary style sports filmis ‘Ronaldo’ Films that follow a fictional character often have; footage of the fictional sporting event, the athlete and his family and friends and emotive scenes. The story normally contains both success and failure to makethe film more engaging. The theme of working hard and achieving a dream is also a convention of these films. An example of a fictional sports filmis ‘Goal!’
