It provides examples of how these works use postmodern techniques like bricolage by mixing genres, self-referential jokes, and sampling to challenge conventions. While some critics argue this lacks deeper meaning, postmodernists believe these techniques serve their purpose. The document also examines how elements like parody, hyperreality, and fragmented narratives in films like Deadpool and The Neon Demon can be controversial by pushing boundaries of what audiences expect.

The film I'm Here can be classified as a sci-fi, romance, and tragedy drama genre hybrid that explores themes of prejudice, love, friendship, and loyalty.

The main character is portrayed as lonely at first but becomes loving and caring after meeting the female robot.
Unit 26 film studies
There are many ways to analyze films and their genres, including considering codes and conventions. An auteur director breaks conventions by adding their own style. Francis Ford Coppola is an example, breaking conventions in Apocalypse Now by having a village attacked without warning. Napoleon Dynamite has no narrative structure with a clear beginning, middle and end. Sixth Sense is a narrative film with a twist ending. Some films objectify women as in Quantum of Solace, while Leon takes risks by having a young girl develop feelings for the main character. Francis Ford Coppola is renowned for films like The Godfather, while Rian Johnson mixes genres in original films. Auteur directors stand out by putting their individual style and twists
Living the future
This document outlines a film idea called "Living the Future" that is described as a dark, horror version of Futurama. The film would follow a character frozen in 2015 who wakes up in 2075 to find the future is not as advanced as expected. He has some traumatic encounters but remains optimistic like the character Fry from Futurama. Our character eventually finds comfort and friendship when he meets a man just like himself, but they wonder if they are the only sane people left. The opening scene is set in 2015 and shows our character's depressed daily life before freezing himself to wake up in the future world.
Propps narrative
This document discusses Vladimir Propp's theory of narrative structures and character types and applies it to analyzing soap opera trailers. Propp suggested that every narrative has eight different character types, including antagonist/villain, hero/victim, donor, and helper. The document analyzes trailers for the soap operas Emmerdale and Hollyoaks, identifying examples of Propp's character roles in each trailer through shots and dialogue that portray struggle, emotion, advice, and assistance.
Lovefield
The short film Lovefield by Mathieu Ratthe manipulates the audience by initially making them think it is a thriller about a woman who is murdered in a field by a man, through the use of ominous music, lighting, camerawork, and costumes that make the man seem threatening. However, it is later revealed that the man actually helps the woman give birth to her baby, subverting the audience's expectations and supporting Todorov's theory that films create an initial equilibrium, a disruption, and then a new resolution.
Warm bodies
The document summarizes key differences between the novel Warm Bodies and its film adaptation. Some of the main changes discussed include: simplifying the societies of Boneys and Fleshies in the film; removing R's family from his backstory; combining minor characters into single representative characters; altering General Grigio to make him more sympathetic; removing internal monologues due to the visual nature of film; using imagery like hand-holding to represent character transformations; and speeding up the plot and changing some story elements like the ending for time constraints. However, both works maintain the core theme that human connection defines our humanity.
Memento analysis
Leonard Shelby suffers from anterograde amnesia and uses tattoos and notes to investigate his wife's murder. He meets Natalie, who manipulates him due to his condition. It's revealed that Leonard's wife survived and he conditioned himself to believe she died. Leonard had already killed his actual attacker but forgot. The film uses nonlinear editing and stylistic techniques common in film noir to represent Leonard's confusion and unreliable memory.
Genre task 6
The document provides an analysis of the covers of three Marvel films: Guardians of the Galaxy, X-Men, and Iron Man. It notes that all three covers prominently feature the main characters. While Guardians of the Galaxy only shows the good characters, X-Men and Iron Man also include villains. The style of the title fonts is similar metallic style across the films, though Iron Man's has a fiery gradient effect relating to the character. Overall, the covers signal the films' genres and main protagonists through their visual elements and symbolism.

- 2. GENRE OF ‘I’M HERE’ I’m Here could be classed as a hybrid genre: Towards the end of the short film, the male robot gives the female robot all of his body parts until all that is left of him is a head. This could be classed as tragedy because in effect the male It could be classed as romantic robot is now dead and cannot do because of the blossoming The main protagonists are robots anything for himself. The tragic relationship of the two robots which brings in an element if science elements are that the female robot throughout the short film. A typical fiction. The film is set in the future in keeps injuring herself and the male feature of this sub genre is that is another world where humans and cannot do anything but give her parts explores the complex side of love. robots live side by side, and this is a of him to fix her. typical feature of a science fiction film.
- 3. REPRESENTATION -The world shown within ‘I’m Here’ is a world where humans and robots live side by side, however humans have control over the robots – robots are not allowed to drive unlike the humans and the humans don’t really seem to care about the robots. -It is a world where no one seems happy, even the humans, showing that power does not always mean that people are happy. The robots are not always acknowledged showing where they stand. -A world where humans are dominant and robots are submissive. -The world is pretty sinister, which is a complete contrast to the main character, Sheldon. PREJUDICE? -Robots are not allowed to drive.
- 4. CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS Main character Sheldon – He is kind, caring and cute with a sense of vulnerability, especially because he is a robot and would let anyone take advantage of him. Love interest Francesca – Seems like the type to use other people such as Sheldon – he is willing to give up anything for her. She is clumsy and breaks herself several times in the film – events that cause Sheldon to cease as a complete robot. This leads me to class her as self- destructive and possibly takes advantage of people around her and their generosity.
- 5. MESSAGES LOVE – There seems to be a negative image of love in this film, with the male giving up things and the female taking them. This could show the nature of the males’ feelings towards the female, and could suggest that the love is not equal and that the female may be using the males love to get what she wants. On the other hand, it could be that the two robots are taking care of each other – this is shown at the end when the female is holding the male robots head in her arms. LOYALTY – The male robot is willing to give up himself and his life for love. The end of the film could show the loyalty from the female towards the male when she stays with his head at the end, rather than leaving him. This suggests that she will always stay by his side because of the generosity that he showed her. The director, Spike Jonze may have wanted to make the audience see things from other points of view.
- 6. AUDIENCE I think the audience is young people as the short film is about a love story between two young robots, so in a way, young people could relate to the struggles some young people have to stay in a relationship at such a young age. Also, the audience must be expected to be people over the age of 18 because the sponsor is Absolut Vodka which is alcohol which is only for people 18 and over. The film poster uses the subtitle ‘A love story in an absolut world’. This links to the sponsor but could also suggest that the world is incomplete rather than absolute.
- 7. ABSOLUT SPONSOR I think Absolut sponsored this short film because there are several scenes of parties and a gig which suggests that people will be drinking at these events. This will promote the vodka. USES AND GRATIFICATIONS There are elements of escapism and identification within the film.
