Camera shots:Exorcist+Final Destanation
This document provides descriptions and analyses of various camera shots and lighting techniques used in filmmaking to convey meaning and elicit emotional responses from audiences. Medium close-ups are used to show a character's reaction and create mystery for viewers. Extreme close-ups intensify viewers' focus on a subject's facial expression, such as demonstrating possession through a character's wide eyes. Backlighting, low angles, and lighting techniques like silhouettes are employed to make characters or situations seem ominous or foreboding by playing with shadows and perspective. Transitional devices like dissolves create ghostly feelings when fading between scenes.
Task 2
This film represents social groups in both traditional and modern ways. Traditionally, the female protagonist is shown as vulnerable and delicate, represented by shots of her alone on a swing which make her seem weak. Men are shown as powerful and dominant, such as a shot of a stalker grabbing the swing she is on. However, some shots provide modern representations, such as one where the female takes up more of the frame than the smaller male behind her, implying she has control. Additionally, keeping the male characters' identities hidden makes them seem more mysterious in a modern way.

Evaluation question 2
The combination of the band's main products was effective in portraying their concept of "remedy" and brand identity. Each side of the digipack featured a band member with colorful explosions and chemical bottles to represent the remedy concept. Colors were coordinated across products to link them. Though somewhat obscure, the products captured the band's quirky, fun personality and indie genre through unusual imagery and rejection of conventions. The combination was successful in communicating the key ideas but could have made the links between the video and other products more overt.
Evaluation question 2
The combination of the band's main products was effective in conveying their concept of "remedy" and quirky brand identity. Each side of the digipack featured a band member with their instrument and a chemical bottle/color explosion, representing the remedy concept. Colors were consistently used across products to link them. While some links between the music video and other products could have been made clearer, overall the combination of products portrayed the remedy concept and band's fun, unique identity well.
Media ad anaylsis
This magazine advertisement for Kings of Leon's new album uses abstract photography with the band members' faces cut up and arranged around an eagle. The ad has a gloomy tone to match the likely sound of the album. While keeping a simple black background, the band's name stands out in font that is different colored but the same style as the album font, making the two easy to distinguish. The ad follows conventions by prominently featuring the artist and showing each band member through the fragmented faces around the eagle.
Font analysis
The document analyzes 8 different fonts for their suitability for an album cover describing the artist's personal development and change. 4 fonts are deemed suitable: a calligraphy style font that has unique, perfectly width letters; a handwritten style font that fits well for the artist's name but not the title; a laid back, subtle font that is not perfectly even or straight showing it's realistic; and a simpler font whose simplicity makes it easily readable and able to stand out on the cover. The other 4 fonts are deemed unsuitable for reasons such as being too bold, large, basic, or having the wrong shape or background color.
Magazine analysis
This advertisement for Lana Del Rey's album "Born to Die" uses minimalist design and lighting to draw attention to the up-and-coming artist. The simple color palette and focus on Lana through a low-angle shot and central positioning make her the clear subject.

The ad also promotes Lana's brand and website to increase exposure around the album release.

3) "Radioactive" by Imagine Dragons blends narrative scenes of teddy bear fighting with performance sections of the band. Casual clothing reflects the indie genre.
Summer assignment
The document provides an analysis of several music videos. It summarizes each video in 1-2 paragraphs, describing elements like genre, themes, imagery, and how the video relates to the song.

Andrew goodwin’s music video rules
There are several rules that music videos typically follow:
1) The music video style reflects the genre of music. For the alternative rock song "Amsterdam" by Nothing But Thieves, the video features the band performing in an abandoned factory alongside dancers.
2) The visuals in a music video relate to the song lyrics, whether illustrating, amplifying or contradicting them. In "Amsterdam", scenes of the dancers emphasize lyrics about craziness and living under the same sun.
3) The visuals also relate to the music itself, using elements like tempo. In "No More Sad Songs" by Little Mix, the climax of the music is reflected in an intensification of the visuals
Summer homework media music video analysis task
This document analyzes three music videos according to Andrew Goodwin's six rules for music videos. Each video is summarized in terms of genre, relationship between lyrics and visuals, relationship between music and visuals, presence of close-ups of artists, references to looking, intertextual references, and whether it is performance, narrative or concept-based. The conclusion finds that most mainstream music videos are narrative-based to engage younger audiences, though some bands subvert this with alternative styles like Fall Out Boy's performance-focused video.
Evaluation 3
The document discusses potential distribution outlets for a short film opening sequence with no budget. It notes that major cinema chains like the Odeon would not be suitable due to the very short length and lack of profit potential. Independent cinemas also may not accept it if the genre is not popular locally. Online indie websites are suggested as they have lower costs and barriers. Television stations like BBC and Film4 that seek to make profits are also not realistic options. The conclusion is that platforms like BBC Three or free online movie websites may be best for a no-budget short film.
Evaluation question 3
The document discusses potential media institutions that could distribute a media product. It suggests that Netflix would be a good option due to its history of supporting independent films and having a catalog of similar genre films. Certain multiplex cinemas could also work as some have shown independent British films before. The BFI cinema may be suitable since it occasionally shows indie films to engage varied audiences, in addition to major films.
Evaluation question 3
This document discusses different types of media institutions that could distribute a media product and analyzes which might be suitable for the author's film. It identifies festivals, Netflix, and some multiplex cinemas as potential distribution outlets.

The author's crime thriller would fit in with genres typically presented on these platforms.
Media question 3
The document discusses different types of media for releasing a film, including various cinemas and film festivals. It analyzes the target audiences and marketing approaches of different venues. Based on the research, television is identified as the best option to reach the film's target 18-22 year old audience nationally, as it is easier for viewers than cinemas or festivals and offers broad exposure without the large competition of other options. Releasing on television balances advantages and disadvantages better than the alternatives.
Evaluation question 3 neamh
The document discusses distributing an independent thriller film. It analyzes different distribution options like independent cinemas versus large chains, and film festivals versus online forums. Independent cinemas and film festivals like Tribeca that feature thrillers are recommended over large chains or prestigious festivals like Cannes. Online forums are also suggested to generate reviews and exposure. In conclusion, independent cinemas are where the film would likely end up if successful, through a festival run and indie release that targets the appropriate audience for a psychological thriller.
Question 3
The document discusses potential media institutions that might distribute an independent thriller film. It analyzes what types of films are shown at mainstream cinemas (fantasy films), independent cinemas (dramas), and film festivals (mostly dramas that could win awards). It determines that an independent cinema or young filmmakers festival would be the most realistic venues, as mainstream cinemas primarily show larger budget films. Online sharing through websites like YouTube could also be an option to reach a wide audience.
Evaluation question 3 correct
The document evaluates potential outlets for showcasing a film. It is analyzed that mainstream cinemas like Odeon and Woking Theatre primarily show large budget films and are not currently interested in crime thrillers. Independent cinemas like BFI and Reading Theatre show a variety of genres and would be better options. Film festivals like Sundance and BFI could provide exposure but have many entries. A young filmmakers competition would allow comparison to similar skills and budgets and is concluded to be the best overall showcase for the film.
Evaluation question 3
This document discusses different types of media institutions that could distribute a media product. It provides examples of film festivals and cinemas as media institutions, analyzing the genres of films typically shown at each one. The document determines that a thriller genre media product could be distributed by cinema chains like Odeon that show thrillers, or streaming services like Netflix which host a wide variety of thriller films.

It analyzes what types of films are shown at different venues like mainstream cinemas, independent cinemas, film festivals, and television. Mainstream cinemas primarily show big budget fantasy films, while independent cinemas focus more on drama genres. Film festivals commonly feature drama films that are more art-house in nature. Given that the film is an independent thriller, it would likely be shown at a young filmmakers' festival or shared online through websites like YouTube, as these venues are more open to lower budget, independent productions. Realistically, the best venue would be a youth festival if the film's production quality was high.
