Narrative structure theory
The document discusses different types of narrative structures that can be used in graphic narratives. It describes open narratives as having no definite conclusion and being open-ended, while closed narratives tie up the story with a clear ending. Single strand narratives follow one character's storyline without subplots, while multi-strand narratives feature multiple interconnecting storylines. Linear narratives present the plot chronologically, whereas non-linear narratives jump around in time. Realist narratives are realistic reflections of real-world events, and anti-realist narratives involve fantasy elements not found in reality.

David Bordwell is a successful film theorist and historian who earned his PhD from the University of Iowa in 1974. He has written over 15 volumes on cinema, notably collaborating with his wife Christine Thompson on books about film art and history. A narrative structure in film traditionally has a beginning, middle, and end, though some films challenge this by placing events out of order, like Pulp Fiction. Plots can be linear, running chronologically from start to finish, or nonlinear, unfolding events in a non-chronological sequence to increase intrigue.
Narrative theory
The document discusses different types of narratives including open vs closed narratives, single vs multi-strand narratives, and linear vs non-linear structures. It provides examples for each type from films, books, TV shows and video games. Key points covered include how open narratives leave stories unresolved, single strand narratives focus on one main character/plotline, and non-linear structures jump around in timeline versus chronological order.
Question 2.3
The document discusses the relationship between literature and cinema. It explains that early cinema adapted theatrical works and novels by putting them on screen. However, directly adapting a literary work to film is difficult and often produces opposite results than expected due to the different languages of each medium. Novels are able to vividly depict characters, settings, and drama in a way that engages readers, while films must show rather than tell through moving images and editing. The document also covers cinema genres and how films are increasingly difficult to classify into a single genre due to blending of plots and subplots.
Knowing analysis
This document provides a summary of shots from the trailer of a paranormal/thriller film called "Knowing". It analyzes 12 shots from the trailer, describing the camera angles, characters, and dialogue used to set up mystery, intrigue, and tension around numbers from an old time capsule that seem to be connected to major disasters. The shots are used to highlight the protagonist and deuteragonist investigating the numbers and growing increasingly worried about their meaning and what will happen when they run out. Feminist perspectives are also briefly discussed in relation to the portrayal of the vulnerable female character.
Research task 1
This document discusses key elements of postmodernism in film. It defines postmodernism as a style that references and remixes other periods and styles in a self-aware way, rejecting notions of high art. Some key elements of postmodern films discussed include challenging conventional narratives, using nonlinear narratives, referencing other works through techniques like pastiche and homage, and employing hyperreality to make audiences aware they are watching a scripted film. Examples are provided to illustrate these concepts, such as an image challenging gender norms in narratives and another mixing animation and live action to parody and critique society.
Ev quest 1
This document summarizes key elements of a short film thriller produced for a class assignment. It describes settings like a dark cave filled with rubbish used to hold the protagonist hostage. The antagonist is portrayed as uncaring and powerful over the hostage. Conventions like themes of entrapment and escape are explored. Visual styles like blurred and canted shots create disorientation to reflect the protagonist's experience. Iconography like ropes and cigarettes are used to convey imprisonment and the antagonist's power. The identity of the protagonist and the resolution are kept ambiguous, challenging expectations.
Research camera angles
This document discusses research into effective camera angles for horror trailers. It analyzes angles used in the trailers for films like Sinister and The Exorcism of Emily Rose. Wide establishing shots are used to set the location and context. Medium shots of characters introduce them and show relationships. High angles suggest vulnerability while low angles make a location seem eerie. Shots like over-the-shoulder POV shots draw the audience in. Mysterious close-ups of objects pique curiosity. The document concludes with recommendations for camera angles to use in a horror trailer based on this research.

Narrative theory
The document discusses different types of narrative structures and theories that can be used in storytelling. It notes that the author's story uses a closed, single-strand, linear narrative structure with some semi-realistic and anti-realistic elements. The story will have an opening, conflict, and resolution, but no flashbacks or nonlinear elements. This type of straightforward narrative structure is best suited to the author's intended younger audience.
Investigating narrative
This document discusses different aspects of narrative structure in film. It begins by defining narrative as "a chain of events in a cause-effect relationship occurring in time." The document then examines various elements that comprise narrative, including story, plot, time manipulation through montage, point of view, and narration. It explores theories of narrative structure from Syd Field, who proposed the three-act system of setup, confrontation, and resolution, and Tzvetan Todrov, who described a five-stage model of equilibrium, disequilibrium, recognition, attempt to repair, and reinstatement of equilibrium. Finally, it categorizes different types of modular narrative as anachronic, forking paths, episodic, and split
9 frame analysis
The opening titles sequence of Catch Me If You Can uses animation and mysterious shots to set the tone and suggest key elements of the film. Scenes of a man nervously looking over his shoulder and people in a lift building suspense. Shots of planes, cars chasing and people at a party help establish the settings and hint at romance or deception. The changing fonts and lighting of shots throughout link the sequence together to tease the theme of people chasing and spying on one another hinted in the film's title.
Analysis of the graduate (1967)
The Graduate (1967) title sequence begins with a close-up of the main character on an airplane to establish mystery around his identity. It then shows him on an escalator in an airport, surrounded by other mundane and repetitive travelers, as the titles begin to play. Different shots are used like a tracking shot of the luggage belt to further illustrate the boredom and normalcy of the protagonist's life. The font and colors of the titles change partway through, possibly reflecting a coming change in the character's life. The sequence ends with another close-up of the main character waiting alone in a sterile room, closing the loop from the opening shot and indicating the end of the title sequence.
Investigating narrative
Narrative is a chain of causally linked events that occurs over time, and it is found in many forms of entertainment like literature, film, and music. In film specifically, narrative relies on techniques like editing, cinematography, and sound to manipulate time and convey meaning. It is structured around key concepts like plot, character, and point of view. Common narrative structures in film include the three-act structure and Tzvetan Todorov's five stages of equilibrium, disequilibrium, new equilibrium. Modern films also employ modular narratives that manipulate time in nonlinear ways through techniques like flashbacks, parallel timelines, and split screens. Narrative is crucial for films because it allows audiences to understand and engage with story
Anti narrative and Conventional Narrative
The document discusses conventional narrative structure and anti-narrative structure. Conventional narrative structure, as outlined by Tzvetan Todorov, follows five stages: an initial state of equilibrium, disruption of that equilibrium, recognition of the disruption, an attempt to repair the disruption, and reinstatement of the equilibrium. Anti-narrative structure presents events out of chronological order and is used by directors like Christopher Nolan, Quentin Tarantino, and Steven Soderbergh to mimic memory, show interlinked subplots, or alter viewers' perspectives.
Analysis of a short film
This document analyzes the short film "One Man's Loss" by Phillip Sansom. It discusses several conventions of the short film genre used in the film, including a shallow depth of field, creative angles, few characters to avoid backstories, basic camera angles for audience comfort, low budgets requiring few locations and crew, and symbolism to convey the film's message. The film's plot twist of clothes being thrown out a window for a homeless man to find provides a feel-good factor common to short films.
Narrative structures
There are eight main narrative structures: anti-realist, linear, close endings, single strand narratives, realist, multi strand narrative, open endings, and nonlinear. Trailers tend to use linear structures that show a normal setting disrupted by the main story. They also tend to use realist structures that audiences can relate to and leave open endings to create mystery and intrigue. Multi strand narratives feature multiple storylines to appeal to different audience interests.
Investigating narrative
This document discusses different aspects and definitions of narrative structure in film. It begins by defining narrative as "a chain of events in a cause-effect relationship occurring in time." It then examines various components of narrative including plot, story, time manipulation techniques like montage, points of view, and narrative devices. The document also analyzes common narrative structures like the three-act structure described by Syd Field involving a set up, confrontation, and resolution. It further discusses Tzvetan Todrov's five stages of narrative and different types of modular narratives identified by Allan Cameron.
Narrative structure
The document discusses different types of narrative structures and styles that can be used in storytelling. It notes that the author's story uses a closed, single-strand, linear narrative structure. While some elements are realistic like the human characters, it is mostly anti-realistic with magical elements like magic beans, giants, and enchanted animals. The narrative follows typical story structures with an opening, conflict, and resolution.
Lahaine (1)
This document discusses the 1995 French film La Haine and provides discussion questions and notes about its themes, settings, and visual style. It explores how the film represents the experiences of young men in the Parisian suburbs and captures the zeitgeist of 1990s France. Specifically, it notes the film blends realist, expressionist and documentary styles to reference real events in a fictionalized way. It also analyzes the film's claustrophobic framing, stylized camerawork, and use of unusual cuts and inserts.
Vertigo - FM4 Film Studies - Auteur, Gender and Psychoanalytical Analysis
The document discusses various critical approaches that can be used to analyze the film Vertigo, including auteur theory, psychoanalysis, and feminist film theory. It provides details about Alfred Hitchcock's directorial style and how he used techniques like camerawork, lighting, and motifs to convey themes of obsession, manipulation, and voyeurism in the film. It also summarizes some key plot points and references to mythology to illustrate Hitchcock's artistic vision and how the film can be interpreted through different critical lenses.
An Analysis Of The Opening Sequence Of Vertigo
The opening title sequence of Vertigo establishes the key themes, characters, and style of the film in two parts. Part one introduces Madeleine through close-ups of Kim Novak's face that highlight her anxiety and unstable identity. Graphic spirals represent her psychological state. Part two shows Scottie's acrophobia through a dizzying camera technique. It sets up his flaw that is exploited in the film. The sequence immerses viewers in the film's obsession-driven narrative through its visuals and Bernard Herrmann's looping score.
Opening sequence analysis- What Lies Beneath
The opening sequence of What Lies Beneath establishes the setting, characters, genre, and themes through various film techniques. It introduces the protagonist through a reaction shot in the bath and establishes the importance of water through title cards and camerawork. Low key lighting and isolation of the house location communicate the psychological thriller genre and dark themes. Characterization of the leading couple's happiness sets up the story's equilibrium before it is disrupted.
A2 Evaluation 1
The document discusses the conventions used and broken in a psychological thriller trailer, magazine cover, and film poster created by the author. For the trailer and magazine cover, the author largely followed genre conventions, such as including a clear protagonist and building tension in the trailer. However, the trailer broke conventions by using a character voiceover instead of dialogue. The film poster took a more ambiguous and unconventional approach compared to typical thriller posters by using a close-up shot with an ambiguous expression and stormy backdrop.
Lesson 7 Narrative
This document discusses various concepts relating to narrative structure in film, including:
- The difference between narrative (how a story is told) and story (events with a beginning, middle, end).
- Linear vs. non-linear narrative structures.
- Structuralist theories of narrative proposed by theorists like Levi-Strauss that examine how meaning is created through binary oppositions.
- Key concepts in narrative theory like Tzvetan Todorov's model of narrative equilibrium and disruption, and Vladimir Propp's seven spheres of action that define character roles.
- How sound, editing, flashbacks and other techniques can function as narrative devices to shape meaning and storytelling.
Brick
The opening sequence uses contrasting instruments and shots of shoes and a face to create confusion and mystery around the characters. Close ups and focal adjustments draw attention to an isolated male character intensely staring at a motionless pale girl lying dead by a drain. Flashbacks between the drain and school settings imply a relationship between the two characters and put emphasis on the alarming title by revealing the beginning was not chronological.
Fmp Context Portfolio
The document discusses techniques used by several film directors and writers:
- Edgar Wright uses unconventional transitions between scenes to make travel sequences more entertaining.
- Costume design was a key element in Mad Max 2, drawing from steam punk and post-apocalyptic styles.
- Quentin Tarantino engages audiences through dialogue that hints at future plot points and ensuring conflict in every scene.
- Juan Carlos Fresnadillo uses camera techniques like shaky cam to influence how audiences perceive characters like zombies.
- Steven Spielberg and Robert Rodat explored moral complexity in Saving Private Ryan by showing empathy for the enemy.
- Ilya Naishuller specializes in over-the-top
Narrative structure
The document discusses different types of narrative structures that can be used in stories:
- Closed narratives tell a complete story in one sitting with a clear beginning, middle, and end. Most films use this structure. The children's book being discussed is an example of a closed narrative.
- Single-strand narratives focus on a single plot line without secondary subplots. Children's books typically use this simpler structure. The book in question follows a single character throughout.
- Linear narratives present events in chronological order as they happened. This is a common structure that would not confuse children. The book follows Lucas' experiences sequentially.
- Realist narratives could feasibly happen and do not include fantastical elements

Narrative Conventions
This document discusses three aspects of narrative: 1) Narrative as representation through the cinematic world, characters, and realism. 2) Narrative as structure, specifically the relationship between plot and story as well as plot patterns. 3) Narrative as the act of presenting the story through narration, subjectivity, and point of view. It also outlines characteristics of classical Hollywood style narratives, including clarity, unity of cause and effect, goal-oriented characters, two intertwining plotlines of romance and another theme, and closure that ties up loose ends.

It notes that the editing uses on-beat cuts to emphasize certain lyrics. Slow pacing is used to suggest she will always have support.

Teaser trailer narrative improved
The document discusses various narrative structures that are commonly seen in teen drama films and their trailers. It analyzes examples like The Maze Runner, Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging, and The Perfect Man. The most likely structures for a teen drama teaser trailer are an open ending to avoid spoilers, a non-linear presentation of clips from the film similar to a montage, and focusing on a single storyline of one or two main characters and their realistic issues. Flashbacks may also be used to build romance or intrigue audiences without a clear chronological order.
Narrative Structure and Components
This document discusses various narrative structures that can be used in media texts. It describes open narratives as never reaching a conclusion, while closed narratives have a definite ending. It also covers single strand structures that have one storyline, multi-strand structures with multiple storylines, linear structures that progress chronologically, and non-linear structures that are inconsistent. Additionally, it defines realist structures as believable events and anti-realist structures as unrealistic scenarios. Key narrative components discussed include openings that introduce situations, conflicts that create tension, and resolutions that solve enigmas and end conflicts.
Woman in black presentation
The document analyzes the trailer for the film "The Woman in Black" and discusses its effectiveness. Some of the techniques used in the trailer that create tension and fear include a dark color scheme, creepy soundtrack, shots of toys to seem unnerving, and increasing pace of cuts. It targets a male-focused 20-30 age range by featuring Daniel Radcliffe. Overall the trailer hints at a mysterious woman and isolated house to generate interest without revealing too much of the plot.
Film openings AS Media
Film openings are used to introduce the main characters, set the scene, and reveal the genre. Most openings include opening credits and identifying the producer and director. However, some directors prefer unconventional openings to add mystery or artistic style by leaving out credits or not immediately introducing characters. Common types of openings include title sequences, flashbacks, establishing shots, flash-forwards, photograph compilations, close-ups of props, or narration over visuals. Animation is sometimes used creatively in titles, and flashbacks provide background information while flash-forwards tease the conclusion.
The girl in red
The document discusses settings, narrative structures, and iconography used in thriller and romance genres as they relate to developing a film trailer that blends these genres. It notes that thriller settings often use nighttime, confined spaces, and abandoned locations to create fear and suspense, while romance settings employ beaches, parks, and daytime lighting to portray happiness. The narrative may incorporate flashbacks and non-chronological storytelling like thrillers or focus on character perspectives meeting like romances. Iconography of weapons, blood, and shadows signify thrillers, while gifts, candles, and affection signal romance genres.
2. Research.pptx
The document provides research on the target audience for a superhero movie project. It analyzes surveys that show Marvel movies are most popular with 18-34 year olds and have more male than female viewers. Reviews for Avengers: Endgame also showed most reviews came from people aged 18-44. The research suggests focusing the project on younger adult comic book fans while aiming to include wider audiences and more female viewers.
Media evaluation 1
The opening sequence of the film "Femme Fatale" conforms to some conventions of the spy genre but also diverges in some ways. It establishes the setting of London and introduces the three main characters as Russian spies on a secret mission. Elements like establishing shots of landmarks and references to past spy films help situate it in the genre. However, it lacks violence, action, or sex appeal typically found in spy film openings and may not engage younger audiences as a result. Unconventional editing choices like slow motion credits were also non-confirming to the genre.

It establishes the setting of London and introduces the three main characters as Russian spies on a secret mission. Elements like establishing shots of landmarks and references to past spy films help situate it in the genre. However, it lacks violence and action typically seen in openings and doesn't draw in younger audiences in the way most spy films do. The slow motion credit sequence is also an unconventional choice that breaks from the realistic editing style of spy films.
Ancillary 1
Short film posters often have conventions such as using white font for the title to make it stand out. Bold typography is also common to catch viewer interest. Some posters do not show a person's face, instead showing hands or feet to hint at their importance in the film or avoid revealing identity. Characters are often facing away, perhaps to show a journey of discovery. Short films do not usually have anchoring taglines. Posters aim to set a romantic tone for young adult audiences. Previous credits and positive quotes are used to promote expectations of the film. Posters sometimes leave aspects mysterious using "hermeneutic codes" to intrigue viewers.
Codes and conventions of a film poster (2)
1) Film posters typically feature a large central image that represents a key moment or the main protagonists of the film. This helps attract audience interest.
2) Additional text provides more information about the film's genre, plot points, or actors to further intrigue viewers. Font choices and placement of text elements are important for legibility and impact.
3) Camera shots of actors, lighting schemes, and color palettes are carefully selected to represent the film's tone and subject matter, helping viewers understand what to expect from the movie. Standard inclusion of production details unifies the marketing of the film.
Woman In Black Presentation
The document analyzes the trailer for the film "The Woman in Black" through its use of genre conventions, editing techniques, and themes. It notes that the trailer establishes an unnerving mood through its gothic color scheme, diegetic soundtrack, and shots of children's toys. It also aims to appeal to audiences through the casting of Daniel Radcliffe and themes of isolation and vulnerability. Overall, the trailer effectively builds tension and intrigue around the mystery of the "Woman in Black" without revealing too much of the plot.
The Woman In Black Presentation
The document analyzes the trailer for the film "The Woman in Black" and discusses several techniques used to create tension and fear in the audience. It notes the use of a gothic color scheme, increasing diegetic sounds, point-of-view shots, and isolated/vulnerable main character to connect viewers emotionally. It also discusses keeping the plot mysterious and relying on the audience's imagination to intrigue them without revealing too much. The overall goal of the trailer's techniques is to engage audiences and leave a memorable effect so they feel like they experienced the story's events.
Narrative
Short films are typically used to showcase talent and secure funding for future projects. They are under 40 minutes long. Feature films are over 40 minutes and follow a narrative structure to convey emotions, raise awareness, and educate audiences. Narratives in film tell a story from beginning to end using characters and plot devices to resolve adversity. Plot establishes cause and effect relationships between events that drive the narrative.
Task 1 - Genre
The document discusses genre in media. It defines genre as how a piece of media is categorized, such as by action, romance, or comedy. Genre lets audiences know what to expect and helps producers and distributors market films. However, genre is complex with differing theories. Some see genre as restrictive while others see it as fluid or a marketing tool. The document analyzes two short films - one labeled a romance genre for its love story elements, and one labeled a comedy for its time travel narrative used for humor and first impressions.
The girl in red
This document discusses settings, narratives, characters, and iconography for the genres of thriller and romance films. It provides examples of how settings like alleys and houses can convey thriller themes through darkness and vulnerability. Romance genres commonly use daytime settings like beaches and parks to portray happiness. The narrative may include flashbacks and non-chronological storytelling for thrillers or show the perspectives of the protagonist and antagonist meeting in romance. Common thriller icons include weapons and confined spaces while romance uses gifts and candlelit settings to convey affection.
Telling tales portmanteau style
1. Portmanteau films tell stories in a non-linear way, comprising several short, interconnected narratives rather than a single linear plot. They take various forms such as anthology films from different directors set in the same location.
2. Examples include Pulp Fiction, Sin City, and Jim Jarmusch films which experiment with structures like different stories connected by a single event.
3. Portmanteau films appeal to directors seeking to innovate and audiences who enjoy piecing together meaning, and help production companies manage risk through ensemble casts.
Film poster conventions
Film posters follow certain conventions in their visual design. The main image typically represents a key moment or character(s) to convey the genre and attract interest. Typography provides information about the film through titles, quotes, and ratings. Camera angles and lighting are chosen to set the mood and match the film's tone, such as close-ups for mystery or low lighting for horror. Additional text lists the director, producers, actors, and other production details to promote those involved and provide relevant details.
Opening sequence analysis 2
The opening sequence of The Dark Knight Rises establishes the dark and violent themes of the film through a suspenseful scene on an airplane involving three hostages. One of the hostages is revealed to be the secretly masked main antagonist, establishing him as a powerful and secretive villain. The thriller genre is communicated through this suspenseful opening action sequence, which uses camerawork and editing to represent the unusual setting of the plane and draw attention to important characters through their costumes and props.

This datafication process digitizes all knowledge and information, allowing it to be permanently stored online. As a result, computers are becoming more integrated into our daily lives. For example, when browsing and purchasing items on Amazon, your behavior provides data that can be used to recommend new products. Additionally, crowdsourcing utilizes user-generated information to provide reliable content with little to no costs for other users to access online, as seen on forums, Wikipedia, and other information sharing sites.
Web 2.0
This document discusses several social media and user-generated content websites, summarizing what each site allows users to do, how it is an example of web 2.0 technology, and how it impacts both media audiences and producers. The sites discussed include photo sharing sites, social networking sites, microblogging sites, video sharing sites, and crowdfunding sites. Each summary provides a high-level overview of the site's purpose and user functionality as well as how it enables participation and sharing of content.
Evaluation Q.1
This document discusses how media products use, develop, or challenge conventions. It notes that all media follows certain guidelines for its genre to be recognizable. The production described generally follows conventions for characters, objects, and editing style typical of an action genre teaser trailer. However, it challenges some conventions, like not including female characters for male appeal and slowing the pace at the end to allow reflection rather than constant action. The challenges were made to make the production unique while still being conventional and enjoyable according to theories of repetition and difference in films.
Key terms magazine covers
This document defines key terms and conventions used on magazine covers. It describes elements like the masthead, tag line, main image, cover lines, puffs/pugs, buzzwords, thumbnail images, and barcode. These elements are used to attract readers' attention, highlight the main stories, and provide key information about the magazine through elements placed at the top, bottom, and sides of the cover. While this cover does not include thumbnail images, many of the other typical cover elements are defined.
Composition of film posters
This document discusses different composition techniques for film posters, including the rule of thirds grid layout, vanishing point, Z-layout, and circular layout. The rule of thirds involves splitting the image into nine equal boxes using horizontal and vertical lines, with the focal point often in the center box. Vanishing point uses parallel lines that appear to meet at a single point to direct attention. Z-layout leads the viewer's eyes along the poster in a particular order. Circular layout guides the eyes around the image in a circle, often with text along the bottom. Examples are provided for each technique.
Ancillary task 2
The poster summarizes as follows:
The target audience is identified as mostly males ages 15-35 based on the age of the protagonist and themes of action and aggression. The genre is implied to be an action or thriller film based on the protagonist holding a gun. The main character is portrayed as a typical action hero who is aggressive, strong, and in control. Overall, the poster conveys the film will follow genre conventions while having its own independent style.
Narrative theories
Todorov's narrative theory proposes that stories follow a structure of equilibrium, disequilibrium, and a return to a new equilibrium. Propp identified 7 character types and 31 narrative functions that commonly appear in stories. Strauss argued that conflict drives narratives and opposites create conflict. Barthes described the "enigma code" where clues are given in stories without revealing crucial plot points, engaging audiences.
Genre market analysis
The document discusses analyzing successful action films from 2014 to determine the elements that contributed to their success. It provides box office and budget information for two top action films from that year - one in the action/war genre that had domestic video sales of $26 million and worldwide box office of $211 million on a $68 million budget, and another in the fantasy/action genre that had domestic video sales of $60 million and worldwide box office of over $955 million on a $250 million budget.
Narrative theories
Todorov theorized that narratives follow an equilibrium-disequilibrium-new equilibrium structure. Propp identified 31 narrative features and 7 character types that commonly appear in stories, including the villain, donor, helper, princess, false hero, dispatcher, and hero. Strauss proposed that conflict drives narratives and they can only end once conflict is resolved, often using binary opposites to create more conflict. Barthes referred to the "enigma code" where clues are given in stories without resolving the overall story, keeping the audience engaged.
Analysis of similar texts (b)
The trailer uses close-up shots at the beginning and sudden startling motion shots to create suspense. The hospital-like surroundings and costumes suggest the main character is being experimented on, giving the film a sinister feel. The eerie dramatic music and dramatic dialogue between characters outlines the basic story and builds suspense. The editing varies between a shutter dissolve and jump cuts between scenes to introduce new footage in a fast-paced dramatic way. The main character appears military but almost superhuman, seeming like a deadly threat to the other frightened characters opposing him.
Analysis of similar texts
The document analyzes the camerawork, mise en scene, lighting, sound, editing, and character representation in a movie trailer. The camerawork is smooth and uses various shots to keep the main character the focus. The costumes and props imply the movie will be secretive and shady. The low key lighting makes the trailer dark and gloomy, possibly reflecting the main character's mood. The sound uses minimal dialogue as ominous one-liners and dramatic music to build suspense. The editing relies on cuts and fades with character dialogue as narration. The main character is presented as less in control than usual, while antagonists seem intimidating through silhouetting and dialogue.
What is a teaser trailer
A teaser trailer is a slow introduction that provides small pieces of information about a film or series without revealing too much, building to a climax that may show a main character or minor plot point. The content introduces the theme and genre but does not give away the main plot, showing some of the characters. The purpose is to pique audience interest in the product without fully revealing key details, generating buzz that encourages more people to watch.
Uk film consumption
Young adults and teenagers aged 15-24 account for 34.1% of film consumption in the UK. Males generally prefer thrillers, action, and comedies while females enjoy a broader range of genres like musicals. Black and minority ethnic groups are over-represented in cinema ticket and video purchases, indicating films should be distributed with specific ethnic groups in mind. Video and DVD sales remain popular methods of consuming films in the UK, though television remains the most popular platform for viewing films in terms of number of viewings.
The role of technology in distribution
The document discusses how the internet and technology have affected film distribution. It describes how the internet allows film companies to advertise to a wider audience through platforms like YouTube. It also explains how websites like Netflix allow people to easily access and stream hundreds of films anytime from any device. However, some illegal downloading websites release films online before their cinema release, which reduces profits for production companies. Physical pirated copies have become less common as piracy has moved mostly online in recent years.
The role of technology in distribution
The document discusses how technology has impacted film distribution. It describes how the internet has allowed film companies to advertise to a wider audience through platforms like YouTube. It also explains how websites like Netflix and Amazon have made films accessible anytime, anywhere, which some argue lessens the excitement of waiting for films to release in cinemas. Additionally, it notes that illegal streaming websites sometimes release films online before their cinema debut, which takes away from the theatrical experience and profits. The document closes by asking questions about how technology has helped the online film industry develop and how that has impacted cinemas.
Tech + film
New media technologies are impacting the film industry in several ways. Technologies allow for higher quality production with lower costs but digital formats still cannot match the highest quality of film. Piracy may decrease with online viewing services but cinemas could see lower profits. Distribution is easier and cheaper with new methods but competition is greater. While access to technology increases, newer technologies are initially expensive. Marketing to audiences is easier but originality in advertising can be difficult. Amateur productions are now possible but may be of lower quality and appear unprofessional.
Stereotypes in media
The document discusses how stereotypes are often presented in media based on gender, age, ethnicity, disability, sexuality, regional identity, and social class. It provides examples of common stereotypes, such as women being less successful and needing to be saved, Asian people being portrayed as smart, and disabled people being weak. While stereotypes are becoming less common, the document argues they are still present in many television and film portrayals of characters.
The rex berkhamstead
This document discusses an independent art house cinema called The Rex in Berkhamsted. It has one screen in a small historic building, showing a maximum of 2 films per day that often sell out. It is not part of a large cinema chain and offers comfortable seating options, a bar, and waitress service for food/drinks. The cinema shows a mix of independent and niche films (55%) as well as some bigger studio films (45%). As an independent cinema, it caters to a niche audience interested in art films but has limited parking and screenings compared to larger multiplex cinemas.

Narrative structures (1)
- 2. Anti-realist Anti-realist films focus on the aspect of being able to provide a theme of escape- ism and something other than a realist environment. This expands the possibilities for film ideas by not being bound by real-world limitations or issues. An example of an anti-realist film would be Star wars.
- 3. Linear An linear narrative simply refers to a story that is told in chronological order; a film that is told as the events happen. An example of this is Batman Begins (2005).
- 4. Closed ending This refers to a film in which the main conflict is solved at the end and does not leave the viewers hanging as the story is concluded.
- 5. Single strand narrative A single strand narrative refers to a narrative that only tells one story and has no other focusses than the main events that are happening in the story. An example of this would be taken.
- 6. Realist Films that try to maintain a certain level of realism in their storytelling. An example of this would be Schindlerโs list.
- 7. Multi-strand narrative This refers to a story which focusses on more than one storyline and possibly has multiple main characters. An example of a film like this is SAW.
- 8. Open ending Where the film is not resolved at the end as to lead on to more of a story. An example of this kind of narrative is the Incredibles.
- 9. Non-linear This refers to a narrative which is not told in chronological order and may include things such as flashbacks to fully explain a story. An example of this can be seen with the Jason Bourne series.
- 10. How are narrative structures shown in teaser trailers? As a teaser trailer is not for actually showing many key points in a film production, and is actually purely to tease an audience and generate hype for the film, it is not very likely that the narrative structure of the entire product will actually be presented. However the structures that can be seen being used within the trailers for action films themselves tend to be that of simple, single-strand narratives and a realist environment . It generally keeps to single strand in trailers to avoid confusing the audience too much and the realist environment with bits of action packed in to make it fast-paced and exciting.
