How did you attract:address your audience?Holly Connell
The document summarizes how the film opening addressed its target audience of teenagers. It used tension and unease created through lighting and camera angles to set the mood of a teen drama genre. Short clips showed the protagonist Aubrey in an intoxicated state and unable to focus. Feedback indicated that using teenage actors made the film more relatable. After receiving criticism about lighting and color, outdoor shots were brightened and indoor shots were warmed to feel more homely. The film employed Todorov's theory of disrupting equilibrium through Aubrey and Carol's argument and Aristotle's structure of beginning, middle, and end through Aubrey's journey from the street to arguing and running away.
Who would be the audience for your media product?Holly Connell

This document discusses the differences between independent and mainstream films. Mainstream films are produced by major Hollywood studios, have large marketing budgets, star-driven narratives, and aim for mass appeal and commercial success. In contrast, independent films have limited distribution and marketing, explore challenging themes, use unconventional styles, and aim more for critical appreciation than box office returns. Gravity and The Social Network are analyzed as examples of a mainstream and independent film respectively.
This document discusses key elements to analyze in film openings including genre, narrative, character, atmosphere, and setting. It recommends investigating what film openings actually look like and what you need to know about titles. The document suggests starting with general film openings and homing in on specific ones to make research focused and relevant, and notes the influence of graphic designer Saul Bass on film title sequences.

The document discusses representations of various groups in media and how stereotypes are used. It provides definitions for stereotypes, archetypes, and countertypes. Media representations are consciously constructed by producers and gatekeepers to control what audiences see. Common questions to ask about representations are who or what is represented, their depicted activities and purpose, and where they are framed. Specific examples analyzed include advertisements, magazine covers, films, and news articles. Representations are shaped by ideological and social factors like gender, ethnicity, and power dynamics.
This document provides guidance for students on creating effective openings for short fiction films. It outlines a 9-step process for planning, shooting, and evaluating the film opening. The steps include researching different opening techniques, brainstorming original ideas, thorough pre-production planning, executing the shoot, editing the footage, and conducting a self-evaluation. Students are advised to thoroughly plan all aspects of the project, document their process, and avoid cliches that are too similar to popular film openings. Paying close attention to details and learning from other works will help students achieve high marks.
This document provides instructions for a film continuity exercise involving two characters. It outlines 8 shots needed to film a scene where Character 1 opens a door, crosses a room, and sits down opposite Character 2 to have a brief conversation. The shots should demonstrate matching action, shot/reverse shot, and adhering to the 180 degree rule. It includes a storyboard layout of the shots and notes on filming the conversation over-the-shoulder to keep both characters in frame.
The document provides guidance for students to develop an individual film pitch that will be presented to their group. The pitch should include details about the genre, storyline, characters, setting, themes, target audience, and opening sequence. It also lists practical considerations like budget, locations, and technical requirements. Examples of successful past pitches are linked for reference. Feedback will be provided based on criteria such as how engaging the idea is and whether it demonstrates originality. The best idea from each group will be selected to develop further and potentially "greenlight" for production.
This document provides an overview of semiotics and how it can be applied to analyze media texts. It defines semiotics as the study of signs and things that represent something else. It explains how images can be decoded by looking at their denotation (what is literally seen) and connotation (deeper meanings and associations). Examples are given of analyzing colors and images for their denotations and connotations. The document also discusses how audiences can interpret media texts in preferred or oppositional readings based on the intentions of the creator versus the viewer's own perspective.
The document discusses several theories about narratives:
1) A narrative retells a story from a particular perspective, potentially leaving out or emphasizing certain events.
2) Barthes viewed a text as having an infinite number of potential meanings depending on which "threads" or codes are followed when unraveling it.
3) Aristotle saw narratives as having a basic structure of a beginning, middle, and end.
4) Todorov identified 5 stages in narratives: equilibrium, disruption, recognition, attempt to restore equilibrium, and new equilibrium.
5) Propp analyzed folktales and identified 8 character types and 31 possible actions that shape narratives.
Mise-en-scene refers to everything visually presented in a scene including setting, costumes, lighting, and character positioning. It is comprised of five key elements: settings and props, costumes/makeup, facial expressions/body language, lighting/color, and character positioning. Together these elements communicate essential information to viewers and influence their feelings. For example, settings build expectations while lighting can highlight characters or convey emotions like mystery. Mise-en-scene is a crucial part of visual storytelling in film.

The Romans established Chelmsford as a market town between Colchester and London. During the Middle Ages, a bridge was built over the River Can in 1100 and weekly markets and annual fairs were held. The population was halved by the Black Death in the 14th century. In the 16th-17th centuries, King Edward VI Grammar School opened and Chelmsford grew as an agricultural market town. The 19th century brought the railway, engineering industry, and new civic buildings like the hospital and library. Chelmsford became known for its radio and electrical equipment manufacturing in the early 20th century.
This document summarizes information about several independent film production and distribution companies and compares them to major Hollywood studios ("Big 6"). It provides backgrounds on Film4, BBC Films, Imagine Entertainment, Miramax, and Village Roadshow Pictures, including founding years and examples of recent films. It notes that independent films generally have lower budgets, less mainstream genres, and smaller target audiences than Big 6 films, so they often go straight to DVD or television rather than wide theatrical releases. However, there are exceptions like The Lego Movie that found success in cinemas. A comparison of Kindergarten Cop 2 and Finding Dory shows the difference in budgets and box office returns between an independent and major studio film.
Finding Dory had a budget of $200 million and grossed over $1 billion worldwide. It was released in June 2016 by Walt Disney Pictures and Pixar Animation Studios, and had the highest opening weekend in the US with $135 million. Directed by Andrew Stanton and Angus MacLane, it stars Ellen DeGeneres, Albert Brooks, Ed O'Neill, Kaitlin Olson, and Hayden Rolence.
This document provides information about the 2012 film "Fast Girls". It was produced by Studiocanal, BFI Film Fund, and AEGIS. Directed by Regan Hall, the film stars Lily James, Lenora Circhlow, and Bradley James and is based on the true story of the British women's sprint relay team that won gold at the 1960 Rome Olympics. Several of the running scenes had to be filmed using body doubles or camera angles that minimized the amount of running required by the actors.
The target audience for the media production "Because of Them" is 16-18 year old females who enjoy drama films and believe in equality and women's rights. Roughly half of the audience identifies as feminist, while others believe both genders should have equal opportunities.

They would likely watch the film with friends or family, especially female relatives.
The document outlines safety precautions for filming at various locations: the Oakland museum, Oakland Park, Chelmsford train station, Charlotte's house, and during transport. Risks identified include falling, tripping, objects damaging facilities, dust, falling objects, and car accidents. Recommended precautions include careful movement, looking where going, filming at quiet times, avoiding platforms and barriers, closing windows, securing ladders, and having a qualified driver.
