Three comedy films are then summarized: The Hangover, Superbad, and Pulp Fiction. Concepts like intertextuality, reception theory, and active spectatorship are also defined in relation to how audiences engage with and interpret films.
Magazine front cover development
The document summarizes the process of designing a magazine front cover for a house music/clubbing magazine. The photographer took photos at a music festival with strobe lights and lasers that provided the perfect lighting effects. They chose a main cover photo that featured the crowd dancing, a DJ, and festival branding. For the masthead, they used a blue font to stand out against the purple cover photo, and designed it to relate to DJ culture by including backwards letters. Additional subheadings were added around the cover photo and masthead in coordinating colors to balance the layout.
Double Page Spread Analysis
The document summarizes the design choices made for a double-page magazine spread. The font colors match the front cover to maintain color scheme.

A black background was chosen to connote darkness and make images and text stand out.

Aperture determines the amount of light that reaches the camera sensor, with smaller apertures resulting in larger depth of field but slower shutter speeds. Shutter speed determines how long the camera's shutter is open, with longer shutter speeds allowing more movement to be captured but shorter shutter speeds providing more clarity. ISO measures the light sensitivity of the image sensor, with higher ISO numbers producing grainier images but being more sensitive to light.

Leading lines guide the eye through the photo along curved or straight paths. Balancing elements adds less important objects to fill space. Symmetry and patterns create strong focal points through mirror images. Depth of field controls which parts of the image appear sharpest.

Rec vs quarantine
REC vs Quarantine
REC, a Spanish horror film from 2007, was filmed using only handheld cameras to give the perspective of a news reporter documenting events. This style draws the audience in more than traditional filming and makes the film feel more realistic. Quarantine is the American remake of REC, released in 2008. It was produced so quickly to capitalize on the original film's success and to appeal to a wider English-speaking audience. Though the two films have many similarities, such as being shot-for-shot remakes, Quarantine uses more famous actors and portrays the cause of infection as a military virus rather than religious possession, catering more to American audiences.

Though Anderson makes mistakes, Dredd decides she deserves to be a Judge. The film is a remake of the 1995 Judge Dredd film and follows the comic books by not revealing Dredd's face. Special effects were extensively used, including slow motion effects for the drug SLO-MO and graphic depictions of violence.
