Evaluation q2
Our media product represents particular social groups in the following ways:
1) It subverts gender conventions in thrillers by having a strong female protagonist instead of a victim, challenging stereotypes of women in the genre.
2) The male characters take a backseat to focus on the struggles and safety of the female leads, portraying women as stronger than men.
3) All the characters are teenagers to reflect the target audience and create tension by putting people their age in danger.
Evaluation – Question 2
The document discusses the aims, techniques, and representation in a media product's opening scene. It aimed to make the audience feel at ease through steady camerawork but also create mystery with parallel editing. It positioned the audience to see things from the main character's perspective and relate to her through familiar settings and struggles. The main character, a teenage girl, was portrayed positively through typical clothing to be relatable to the target audience. Technical skills like parallel editing, quick shots, and mise-en-scene with relatable fashion were used to engage the audience and represent the events from the character's point of view.
Question 5
The document discusses how the filmmakers addressed their target audience in the opening sequence of their horror film. They chose to partner with Blumhouse Productions as their distributor because Blumhouse specializes in similar horror films that already have an established audience. Using a child as the first antagonist was meant to intrigue audiences by subverting expectations, as was including chase scenes shot with handheld cameras to create tension. The film spans different eras to allow modern audiences to relate to characters and settings. A female antagonist challenges gender stereotypes and makes the film stand out from most horror films that feature male antagonists.
Pitch
This document provides a pitch presentation for a film called "Same Differences". The film will follow four characters dealing with different social issues - mental health, racism, family issues, and disability. Each character will pursue ways to address their issues and fight discrimination. The presentation outlines ideas for the film's teaser trailer, poster, target audience, and how it will address real-life social issues similar to other teen drama films. The teaser trailer will introduce each character and their issue before showing them joining together for a campaign. The target audience is primarily females aged 15-24 from a working-class background to raise awareness of these issues through social media.
Evaluation: Question Two
The document discusses a media product that subverts stereotypes about gender in crime films. It features two female protagonists who are equally or more authoritative than typical male characters. Their costumes and jobs signify power and middle-class status. By portraying empowered female leads, the product aims to inspire viewers to believe they too can achieve high-ranking jobs and positions of authority regardless of gender.
Evaluation 5
The document discusses strategies for marketing a physiological thriller film called "Theo Grey" to a young adult audience. It describes taking inspiration from the film "I Am Legend" in terms of the protagonist's isolation and urban setting. The marketing plan involves using social media like Instagram and Twitter to engage followers in the filmmaking process and build anticipation. The posters and trailers aim to create intrigue about the isolated protagonist and what might be pursuing him in a familiar urban setting.
Question 1
The document discusses how the filmmaker conformed to conventions of the romantic horror genre. Shots like mid shots and long shots showed what was happening and allowed audiences to recognize characters, while close ups created paranoia by restricting the frame. Costumes, makeup, props, music, sounds effects and locations were chosen to follow genre codes and thrill audiences. Characteristics of the villain Jason were inspired by The Joker to instantly signal his craziness. Overall, the filmmaker aimed to develop the narrative and characters in a way that would differentiate it as belonging to the horror genre.
Evaluation 5
The document discusses the influences and conventions considered when developing a physiological thriller film called "Theo Grey".

Elements like cinematography, editing, sound, and costume were carefully crafted to align with thriller conventions and attract the target demographic. The unique selling point of setting the thriller in a recognizable location was highlighted. A teaser poster and social media presence on Instagram and Twitter were discussed to entice audiences.

Ancillary Task: Film Review Analysis - The Truants
The document provides an analysis of the film "The Truants" and how information is presented to audiences to attract them to watch the film. It begins by stating the credits of actors and director to give audiences information to decide if they want to see the film based on previous works. Imagery and film posters are also used, showing two boys in scruffy uniforms near tires, implying they are mischievous students from a lower social class who do not attend school. Further images aim to give viewers a sense of the narrative and characters to generate interest in learning more about the film.
Question 1) finnished
The document discusses how the media product uses and challenges conventions of the thriller genre. It summarizes how the opening scene uses conventional elements like an intimidating male antagonist, isolated setting, low-key lighting, and unsettling sound effects. However, it also challenges conventions through an unconventional boutique setting, atypical credits, and a character obsessed with fashion that questions gender norms. Overall, the product aims to engage a teenage audience through themes of gender, social expectations, fashion, and obsession.
How theory influenced the institutions related to my production
Genre theory influenced the marketing of the film production in several ways. Lacey's repertoire of genre elements helped identify the noir genre, attracting fans. Neale's theory of distinctive combinations of features avoided copying other films by challenging trailer conventions. Rich described typical femme fatale representations in noir, which the film partially conformed to. By conforming to and challenging genre conventions, the marketing campaigns aimed to attract audiences but the film would be marketed at independent cinemas and festivals rather than mainstream audiences.
Q2 evaluation AS Media
The document discusses how social groups were represented in a media production. It explains that the main character, a little girl named Ella, was intended to be portrayed as weak and vulnerable through techniques like using bright colors in her costume, high camera angles, and desaturating other colors except for her clothes. Feedback suggested this was effective but also distracting. The document also notes that the antagonist was intentionally portrayed as male using stereotypes like dark clothing, in order to convey anger and violence, and this could reinforce ideas about men being antagonists in society. Improving representation could involve including a female antagonist as a counter-stereotype.
Evalutaion 3: Distributors
GPM Productions created their company name as a combination of the initials of the owners. They believe their thriller brand name would work well with a large production company like Universal.
Production companies provide financing for films and ensure all aspects are perfect before release. As a new company, GPM Productions sought financial help from Kickstarter, a brand that helps fund new companies.
GPM Productions decided to partner with Universal as their distributor since Universal specializes in high budget thriller films, which would be a good fit. This allows GPM Productions to benefit from Universal's prestige and promotion.

Although Laura is 19, she has an older playing age and extensive acting experience. They have discussed the commitment with Laura and she has agreed to take time off work to join the cast. A contract and filming schedule will be sent to formally hire Laura and ensure her availability.
Pitch

As they analyze each new crime scene, Hunter notices signs that Josh is becoming psychologically unstable. Josh believes catching the killer is the only way to prevent his own mental breakdown. A pattern emerges linking the crimes to Josh's past, causing further psychological turmoil. Will Josh find a way to regain his mental stability, or will he become as deranged as the killer he pursues?
How does your media product represent social groups?
The document discusses how social groups were represented in a media product. It focuses on representing the antagonists more than the protagonist through location, makeup, costumes and stereotyping skateboarders. Camera movements and shots were used to represent social groups, such as staying close while the protagonist is chased. Mystery was kept around the protagonist by keeping distance between the camera and character. Still shots of the filming location were also used to represent social groups. Proper representation of characters was important to maintain verisimilitude. The teenage demographic was represented by casual clothing to avoid negative stereotypes. Films like "This is England" and "Fish Tank" that criminalize teenagers were referenced, though the protagonist in this media product was portrayed more
Presentation evaluation of film opening
The document discusses how the media product challenges stereotypes presented in urban drama films. Typically, these films portray urban youths negatively as being involved in gangs and criminal activity. However, the media product subverts this expectation by showing an urban youth in a positive light at the end of the opening scene. Specifically, it shows that despite coming from an urban background, it is possible for someone to have a good job and make something of themselves rather than engage in stereotypical gang behaviors. The goal is to present an alternative to the usual negative portrayals and provide a more balanced representation of urban youth.

Representation
The document discusses key concepts related to representing subjects in media including mediation, representation theory, stereotypes, and dominant ideology. It provides three levels of representation theory: reflective (mirroring reality), intentional (projecting a specific meaning), and constructionist (shaped by multiple influences). Any representation involves selection, organization and focus that changes reality. Stereotypes simplify complex subjects but can be dangerous if oversimplified. Dominant ideology reflects prevailing societal attitudes that representations tend to reinforce.
Evaluation 2b
The document discusses the effectiveness of combining a film trailer, magazine, and poster for a supernatural horror genre project. The products use similar stylistic conventions like locations, antagonists, and costumes to communicate the genre. While the magazine cover is not based on the genre, it features an actor from the trailer. All three products feature female characters, conforming to genre traditions. Both the trailer and poster incorporate eerie elements like the antagonists' appearances and haunted settings. Audience feedback confirmed the products clearly communicated the supernatural horror genre through visual elements like fonts and iconography.
Question 5
The document discusses ways in which the thriller film "Psychosis" aims to attract and appeal to its target audience. It does so by having a teenage main character that viewers can relate to and feel they could be in a similar situation. It also uses a realistic location of a home to add believability. The film begins with everyday routines to draw the viewer in. Choosing a young actress who studies drama helps make the character and performance natural and realistic for teenage viewers to connect with. Referencing similar successful thrillers like "Hide and Seek" could encourage viewers by showing the links between films. The ambiguous poster is intended to intrigue and spark curiosity about what the film is about.
Question 2
The combination of the main product (short film) and ancillary texts (film poster and review) is effective as they work well together as a package with consistent style and messaging. The film idea is different as it shows an unlikely romance between an unpopular boy and popular girl, giving hope to other geeky boys. While the marketing materials imply the two may end up together, the film realistically shows they do not, subverting expectations. The products are expanded to target young audiences through additional promotional materials like social media, interviews, and competitions.
Kidulthood case study
This document provides an overview and analysis of the 2006 film Kidulthood. It examines how the film represents teenagers and issues they face, through its characters, dialogue, scenes of violence and tension, and stylistic techniques. Key points made include that the film aims to authentically portray real life for 15-year-olds, generates tension through interactions between groups in the opening scene, and uses elements like lighting, sound and editing to create atmosphere during impactful moments. The film can be seen as depicting a "rite of passage" as characters like Trife and Alisa undergo experiences that mark their transition to adulthood.
Problems encountered whilst filming
The filmmaker decided to change the actor playing an anonymous drug dealer character because the original actor, Frank Dunn, looked too young for the role. A 19-year-old actor, Christopher McDonagh, was chosen instead because he had a more mature appearance that better fit the character. Some footage was deemed unusable - shop footage didn't seem sinister enough and a scene with dark lighting made the characters' faces hard to see. The filmmaker plans to not show the male characters' faces to add mystery and portray them as more sinister figures.
Media evaluation
The document discusses the research and production process for a student thriller film. It describes how the filmmakers studied psychological thrillers like "Black Swan" for inspiration. They aimed to fulfill thriller conventions through camera angles that create tension while also trying original techniques like blurred focus shots of a character who seems to appear and disappear. The slow build in tension culminates with a shot of blood in a bath at the end. The document also covers distribution plans, target audiences, and the skills learned through the project.
Me, myself and irene poster analysis
1) The poster features Jim Carrey with a split face representing his character's dissociative identity disorder which allows him to switch between a mild-mannered cop and his maniacal alter ego.
2) The tagline "From gentle to mental" and portrayal of disability as sinister receive criticism for negatively representing disability.
3) While the poster effectively conveys the comedy genre through its use of bright colors, exaggerated facial expressions, and popular comedy stars, it may offend or deter audiences through its poor representation of disability.
Evaluation activity, q5
The document discusses how an unconventional villain was used in the opening sequence of a thriller film to appeal to the target audience. The villain's motivation of love for her sister makes her both sinister and sympathetic. Camera techniques like high and low angles were used to involve the audience. The opening features realistic settings, props, and sound to immerse viewers. Audience feedback indicated they enjoyed the unexpected elements, suspense, and not knowing what the villain would do next.
Ideology in films
This document discusses how ideology is portrayed in films. It defines ideology as a set of ideas that reflect social values and influence beliefs and actions. Films can promote certain dominant ideologies around topics like family values, work ethic, consumerism, and gender roles. For example, many early Disney films portrayed women as dependent on men and finding romance as their primary goal. While more recent films like Sex in the City show how ideologies have evolved over time to depict women as more independent, they still reinforce the ideology of marriage as the ultimate achievement. The way things are portrayed in films shapes societal understanding and experiences of those topics in real life.

Examples of ideology in film
This document provides a summary of several scenes from a film that demonstrate examples of ideology. It describes shots of a military vehicle driving through Afghanistan with music playing, showing the diegetic sound coming from a CD player. It notes that a close-up of a glass of whiskey in the vehicle signals someone of higher authority is drinking, as shown by a nervous young soldier. Further shots reveal the whiskey drinker as a man with a relaxed, arrogant attitude who is surprised to find a female soldier driving. His comments imply it is unusual to have a woman in this role.
Ideology & representation in media
This document discusses different theories about how media represents and influences society:
- Functionalism says media informs, correlates information, provides continuity of culture and entertainment. Conflict theory says media representation is shaped by ideology and bias.
- Representation in media results from selection of possibilities and is ideological. Stereotypes in media content can reinforce power relations.
- Media can manipulate representation through techniques like mise-en-scene, editing, and framing. Content analysis is needed to understand media influence.
- Hegemony theory says the ruling class controls media to shape public opinion. Pluralism says media reflects diverse audiences rather than pushing ideology. Stereotypes arise from pleasing audience expectations.
Ideologies – an introduction
This document provides an introduction to political ideologies by outlining what is ideology and discussing some of the core themes of liberalism and conservatism. It defines ideology as a more or less coherent set of ideas that provides the basis for organized political action. Liberalism emphasizes individual freedom, reason, justice, and tolerance, viewing each person as equally deserving of rights. Conservatism stresses the importance of tradition, human imperfection, hierarchy and authority in society, and private property as foundations of social order. The document examines some of the key beliefs and values of these two dominant Western ideologies.
Ideology
Ideologies are the underlying ideas, values, and beliefs portrayed in media. Common ideologies include traditional gender roles and expectations, such as women as homemakers relying on men for happiness. However, ideologies are not static and have changed over time as societies' values change. Modern media like Sex and the City portray more independent women, though still reinforce some traditional ideologies like the importance of marriage. Analyzing media exposes the dominant ideologies being reinforced around topics like family, work, consumerism, social issues, gender, and human relationships with the environment and each other.

Evaluation Part 4 and 5: Audience Identification and Appeal
The document discusses targeting the audience for a psychological thriller film. Research found that the audience for these films is predominantly male aged 15-45 years old. The target audience enjoys psychological, thriller, sci-fi and horror genres and films that make them question themes and form opinions on social topics with ambiguous endings. The target socio-demographic group is categories A to C2 who enjoy films that require concentration. The opening sequence uses enigma coding around the antagonist to engage the audience and encourage discussion, allowing them to relate to the characters and place themselves in the narrative for entertainment and escape.
Representing Social Groups
The document discusses how the creators of a narrative focused on realistically developing their protagonist based on social stereotypes to make him more relatable to audiences. They made the protagonist a middle-class white heterosexual male between 18-25 years old to fit expectations. They also applied a constructionist theory involving elements of truth, the producer's opinions, and contextual time period to give the production depth. Some stereotypes were avoided to prevent cliches, but others were incorporated to aid audience understanding and believability of the protagonist's situation.
Who are your audience and what have you learned from their feedback?
- The document discusses a student's horror film trailer project, including their intended goals, research into their target audience of 15-25 year olds, and feedback received.
- Their trailer was successful in clearly denoting the horror genre and attracting their target audience, as shown through positive feedback from a focus group who identified the correct genre and said they would see the film.
- The student felt their skills in understanding genre conventions, mise-en-scene, and creative planning improved compared to their previous project. They incorporated more semantic and syntactic genre elements this time.
Representation 2
This document discusses representation as a key aspect of media studies. It defines representation as how media presents the real world to audiences through constructed meanings. A popular form of representation is stereotypes, which overgeneralize groups using easily recognized traits. Stereotypes are useful shortcuts for media producers but can also emphasize differences. The accuracy of media representations depends on selection, organization and focus during the mediation process which constructs our perceptions through techniques like camera angles and lighting.
Legal and ethical disney
The document discusses various theories about the possible effects films can have on audiences, and analyzes how some of these theories may apply to the film The Force Awakens. It examines theories such as the hypodermic needle theory, two-step flow theory, and uses and gratifications theory. It also discusses possible positive and negative effects the film may have on audiences, including building personal relationships with characters, becoming desensitized to violence, and being influenced to behave violently. Legal and ethical issues around representation, discrimination, copyright and offensive content in films are analyzed in relation to The Force Awakens. The role of regulatory bodies like the BBFC in classifying films and setting rules studios must follow is also summarized.
Theorists and how they relate to my material:
The document summarizes several media theories relating to representation, narrative, audience, and ideology. It discusses key concepts from theorists such as Levi Strauss, Laura Mulvey, John Berger, Tessa Perkins, Richard Dyer, and others. The document also relates each theory to the creator's own music video, explaining how concepts around binary opposites, male gaze, stereotypes, and more are relevant to the themes and story presented in the video.
Uses and Gratification Theory
Uses and Gratification theory proposes that individuals actively select media and content to fulfill personal preferences and satisfy specific needs or desires. Elihu Katz introduced the theory in the 1970s to understand why people choose certain media. The theory suggests that people use media in different ways to fulfill different needs and goals, such as for entertainment, social interaction, information, and personal identity.
Gender and the media
This presentation discusses how media representations of gender and beauty influence societal norms. Unrealistic ideals are portrayed - women are expected to be extremely thin while men must be muscular. These portrayals shape gender roles, with women often depicted as weak victims and men as strong protectors or villains. Scenes of violence like rape also usually portray women as helpless and men as powerful. The media gaze constructs women as passive objects for the male audience. Through constant exposure, these images shape perceptions of appropriate gender roles and relationships.
Who are your audience and what have you learned from their feedback?
- The filmmaker targeted an audience aged 15-25 for their horror trailer and found through research and feedback that they successfully attracted this demographic.
- They learned about their target audience through questionnaires which showed a preference for horror genres with female antagonists. They related to this age group and understood what would appeal to them.
- The trailer incorporated genre conventions like lighting, pacing, and a threatening female character to denote the horror genre and attract the intended audience. Feedback from test screenings was positive and most said they would see the full film.
The Craft of Character Creation - Mark Murphy Director
Character creation is a crucial aspect of filmmaking. As a film director, it's essential to understand that characters are the soul of the narrative. Their persona, actions, and development form the crux of the story, and their relatability determines the emotional resonance of the film.
Evaluation part 4 and 5 v2.0
The document discusses how the media product would appeal to its target audience. It aims to attract working class 16-19 year old white, middle-class female teenagers by having a female protagonist they can relate to. It seeks to appeal to their needs for safety, security, and problem solving through a mysterious thriller plot. While it primarily targets females, it also hopes to attract males through attractive female leads and keeping elements of dark, mysterious thrillers. It discusses using the "male gaze" or "female gaze" with camera movements to make lead characters more appealing to the opposite sex. Overall, it tries to provide viewers with a puzzle to solve and "escape" from their daily lives through the characters' struggles.

An Analysis Of Gender Stereotypes And Performativity In Brave Disney Movie
This document provides background information and context for analyzing gender stereotypes and performativity in the Pixar film Brave. It begins with an introduction to the topic and definitions of key terms like gender stereotypes and Judith Butler's theory of gender performativity. It then outlines the problem statements, scope, goals and functions of the study. The study aims to identify gender stereotypes in Brave and analyze the masculine performances of the main female character Merida through the lens of gender performativity theory. It concludes with an overview of the systematic presentation of the study across 5 chapters.
Fiske's ideas on inbetweeners
The document discusses applying Fiske's theory to the TV show "The Inbetweeners" in three key ideas:
1. Formal conventions - Characters develop identities outside episodes and camerawork focuses closely on characters to convey emotions.
2. Familiar characters - Characters' repetitive behaviors make audiences relate to them like people they know, strengthening relationships over time.
3. Constructed representations - Writers and producers selectively construct each character's identity through appearance and stereotyped traits to portray different images that audiences can familiarize themselves with.
Representation theory
Richard Dyer's star theory argues that celebrities become icons through their construction by media institutions for commercial purposes. Stars are crafted with idealized images and personalities to appeal to audiences, rather than representing their true selves. This allows audiences to easily identify with stars and form attachments, though it can also lead fans to emulate stars' behaviors. Meanwhile, Laura Mulvey's male gaze theory holds that women are typically portrayed in media as objects of the male gaze for visual pleasure, reinforcing patriarchal social norms. Finally, Tessa Perkins notes that stereotypes are not always negative, can apply to powerful groups as well as marginalized ones, may contain some truth, and help people understand the world, even if they are difficult
AS Media Lesson 18 - representation theorists
This document discusses several theorists and their ideas around representation:
- Richard Dyer analyzed how media representations shape our understanding of the world and different groups.
- Tessa Perkins argued that stereotypes are more complex than often assumed, as they can be positive, about powerful groups, internally held, and sometimes based in truths.
- David Gauntlett viewed identities as social constructions that are negotiated rather than fixed.
- Jean Baudrillard analyzed how in modern media-focused societies, representations and simulations of reality have replaced and become more influential than reality itself.
Evaluation quesion 5
The document discusses how the filmmaker attracted and addressed their audience through various elements of the film. The protagonist and antagonist are both male and female, widening the audience appeal. The narrative follows a female lead in a crime industry she doesn't want to be in, providing an original approach different from typical crime films. Iconography like drugs were included to fit crime film conventions while maintaining an unconventional narrative. Dramatic music added intensity. The filmmaker used uses and gratifications theory to draw in a wide audience through elements of escapism, social interaction, and identification with the main characters of both genders.
Uses and Gratification Theory
Uses and Gratification Theory proposes that individuals actively select media to fulfill personal preferences and satisfy needs or desires. Elihu Katz introduced the theory in 1974 to understand why people choose certain media. It suggests people use media in ways that gratify personal needs and preferences, such as for entertainment, social interaction, relaxation, or information.
Legal and ethical report
The document discusses various theories about the potential effects films can have on audiences and regulatory bodies involved in the filmmaking process. It analyzes how theories like hypodermic needle theory, two-step flow, and uses and gratifications may apply to the film Star Wars: The Force Awakens and potential positive and negative effects. It also examines issues of representation in the film regarding race, gender, age, and sexuality. Finally, it discusses legal and ethical considerations filmmakers must address, such as discrimination and copyright, as well as how regulatory bodies like the British Board of Film Classification set rules films must follow.

Opening sequence
The document discusses establishing an effective opening sequence for a film. It emphasizes introducing the key locations, protagonists, and genre/theme in the opening shots. For their short psychological thriller film, the opening sequence will show the protagonist Richard happily singing in his campervan at night. It will then cut to Eve sitting vulnerably on the moors in a white dress. Richard notices her and pulls over, introducing both protagonists and the isolated moorland location to set the tone for the genre.
Questionnaire analysis
The document summarizes the results of a survey about a film screening. It shows that most of the audience was female, and agreed that the film fit the genre of a psychological thriller. The majority said the target audience should be ages 19-25, and most found the ending predictable.
Creation of the film review magazine
The document discusses why InDesign was chosen over Photoshop for creating a film review magazine. InDesign allowed for easier multi-layer layout of the magazine with clearly defined layers and columns. It also automatically sets documents to CMYK color mode which is better for print. InDesign also gives more control over typography than Photoshop. While some images were edited in Photoshop, InDesign provided a simpler interface and more presets suited for a print layout with multiple pages.
Plan for Screening
The filmmakers will screen their short film 'Lost in the Eve' for friends and family aged 19-25 to get feedback before final release. They will hold the screening in their school's media classroom, which has adequate viewing equipment. They have permission from their teacher to use the room from 3:30-4:30pm after school. They will provide snacks and drinks, and ask viewers to complete an anonymous questionnaire afterwards for honest feedback to improve the film. Safety procedures like a sign-in sheet and fire exit instructions will also be followed.
Evaluation tech
The document discusses the various technologies used at different stages of creating a short film. In the planning stage, the filmmakers used the internet to research film genres and theories as well as watch example short films and tutorials on editing software. YouTube was a key resource for inspiration, learning how to edit, and publishing the finished film. SlideShare and IMDB were also used for publishing work and research. Edius software allowed editing of footage by connecting shots and adding effects. Microsoft Word and PowerPoint were used for storyboards, documents, and presentations. Cameras, lighting, and tripods were used to film scenes, and footage was uploaded to Edius for editing.
Poster for Screening
HELK Productions is holding a screening of their new psychological thriller short film "Lost in the Eve" targeted at 19 to 25 year olds. Both men and women are welcome to attend the screening. Questionnaires will be handed out after the screening to collect audience feedback.
Hot to storyboard
The document provides guidance on how to create an effective storyboard. It explains that storyboards are a series of illustrations displayed in sequence to help filmmakers visualize shots and plan their film. It then discusses key elements of a storyboard like including images of shots, camera instructions, sound details and more. Specific tips are provided on drawing people as stick figures and using circles to make them more proportional. The finished example storyboard page shows how to apply these tips and include all necessary information to properly plan shots.
Film review research
The document provides guidance on writing an effective film review. It explains that a review should inform readers about the film's details, describe the story and characters, analyze whether the film is good and why, and advise readers whether to see it. It also offers tips on structuring a review with an introduction, plot description, analysis, and conclusion. Font formatting and appropriate images are also discussed. The target audience for most film reviews is generally people aged 25 and older.
Making the film poster (1)
The document discusses the making of a film poster. It will be created in Adobe Photoshop due to the group's experience with the software and its tools for editing images. The film's messages of forgiveness, love, and loss/death will be conveyed through the portrayal of the protagonist as a ghostly or spiritual character using techniques like costume, makeup, and transparency. Conventions for film posters like following the rule of thirds for image placement and including the title will be followed. The protagonist will be depicted in a pale, windswept manner to suggest her ghostly nature without revealing too much of the plot.
Storyboards (1)
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Semiology
This document discusses types of signs used in film posters and their meanings. It provides examples of iconic, symbolic, and indexical signs. Film posters use signs like costumes, lighting, colors, and body language to convey messages and hint at the genre and plot. Effective posters deconstructed in the document use faint facial images and placement in the sky to indicate a spirit or death, and establish settings and postures and scales to imply searching and difficulty in finding someone. Color balancing and bold titles also help audiences quickly understand the genre and title.
Music choice
1) Buddy Holly was an influential American musician and singer-songwriter in the 1950s who helped pioneer the rock and roll genre.
2) He learned guitar and singing from his siblings and was influenced by gospel, country, and rhythm and blues. He began performing locally in 1952 and formed a band called "Buddy and Bob" the following year.
3) In 1955, after opening for Elvis Presley three times and shifting his style to rock and roll, Holly signed a contract with Decca Records with help from a Nashville scout.
Character profiles
The document provides character profiles for three characters in an upcoming short film:
Richard, an elderly man dressed in light colors who enjoys driving and singing in his campervan. He offers a ride to Eve after seeing her walking alone.
Eve, a pale young girl dressed in a white dress who is lost trying to find her way home after missing her father. Her mother died giving birth to her.
David, Eve's father who misses his daughter deeply since his wife also died during Eve's birth. He lives alone in dark clothes and is shown initially as an angry character who becomes emotional when Richard brings Eve home after giving her a ride.
Film poster analysis
The poster uses surreal colors like purples and greys to depict a storm approaching and families ready to fight, indicating something bad may happen. At the center is the main image of the young couple kissing, with a shining heart above them symbolizing their powerful love amid the violence around them. The layout spreads out the families on either side of the couple at the center to keep the violence from overtaking the focus on their love. The tagline "My only love sprung by my only hate" helps viewers understand how the family hatred brought the couple together despite everything.
Popular culture
Popular culture refers to ideas, perspectives, and phenomena that are mainstream within a culture, especially Western culture in the 20th-21st centuries due to mass media influence. It is shaped by everyday interactions between people. There is debate around how to define popular culture, as the concept is complex with contradictory meanings. Popular culture is categorized into folk culture, mass culture, dominant culture, and working class culture. While popular culture is sometimes blamed for societal issues, it can also positively influence people. However, popular culture mediums should not be oversimplified as entirely good or bad, as they likely do shape cultural behaviors and values to some extent.
Audience theory and research
The document summarizes the results of a questionnaire given to 50 people to understand the target audience for a short film. It found that the preferred age group that watches short films is 19-25 year olds. This age group mainly watches short films online and prefers the drama and horror genres. Based on this, the filmmakers decided to create a psychological drama short film targeted towards a mixed gender audience between 19-25 years old.
Short film questionnaire
This short film questionnaire asks respondents for their gender and age, whether they watch short films, and what attracts them to or interests them in short films, including possible genres and where they would watch them. It is conducted by Lucy, Eman, Katie and Hamza for an unknown purpose and thanks participants for their time.

Issues in relation to short films
Short independent films face several issues including standing out in the oversaturated market, effective distribution strategies, crafting compelling storylines, and managing copyright permissions. To gain attention, films need a clear genre that helps distributors promote the work. Common distribution options like YouTube are free but creators must consider viewership and monetization potential. Successful shorts tell creative, engaging stories focused on a single main character. Finally, obtaining proper permissions for any copyrighted content is important to avoid legal problems.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Production values
- 1. PRODUCTION VALUES Done by Eman Shah
- 2. Verisimilitude • Verisimilitude can be defined as the appearance being true or real. In a narrow sense it can also be defined as the likeness or semblance of a narrative to reality, or to the truth. It can be described in storytelling by the way in which the audience contributes to their experience by their willing acceptance that even when events or people in a film are not realistic, if the filmmakers vision is consistent it will then give us the sense that in that particular world these things can happen. This term is important in many media genres because it determines the level of an audience engagement and also their willingness to engage in suspension or disbelief.
- 3. Example of Verisimilitude • An example of verisimilitude can be the film ‘Superman’ because in the film it has realistic plots and images that make the film seem quite realistic. The marketing of the film suggested ‘you’ll believe that a man can fly!’ and this is what the audience believed when they watched the film. The word superman emphasises that the character has got power so he must be able to fly, and so this felt true and real. The believability is reinforced due to the fact that his universe demonstrates no realism and does not attempt to match the real world.
- 4. Ideology • Ideology is defined as a body of ideas reflecting the social needs and aspirations of an individual, group, class and culture which can influence people’s beliefs and actions. But audiences can interpret these ideas differently depending on the individual. The way certain things and people are shown in films contribute the ways in which these things are understood and experienced in real life. Choices in the form within film (mise en scene, editing, sound) convey particular messages and give impact on viewers, with repetition and time and these become conventions. These conventions maintain power in the way things continue to be created and broadcasted.
- 5. Example of Ideology Ideologies in Disney Ideologies brought about in Disney films is that women are dependent on a man, finding love and marriage is the ultimate goal. It also gives the ideology of body images, because these characters are seen as commercially beautiful when really they have body proportions that are not physically possible, so therefore distorting societies ideas on body image making women strive for something that is humanly not possible. Ideologies in sex and the city In the film sex and the city it shows the ideology of women that have been changed over time as women have become more independent and have no limits on how successful they can be. However they still reinforce the dominant ideology of marriage being the ultimate goal.
