Evaluation question 1
The document discusses how the author created an effective title sequence for their thriller film that sets up suspense and engages the audience. Key elements discussed include establishing the narrative and genre through shots of a crying girl in the woods; using close-ups, jump cuts and camera work to build tension; introducing the protagonist and antagonist; setting the scene through lighting, location and genre-appropriate title placement; and employing special effects and music to further create suspense. The sequence is analyzed frame-by-frame to convey how various cinematic techniques were employed to captivate viewers from the start.
Trailer screen shots (part two)
This document discusses shot selections and creative choices for a film trailer. It analyzes shots from films like "Dead Silence," "The Crazies," and "Sorority Row" that establish characters, convey a sense of isolation or change, or signify supernatural elements. Shots like a character telling a story, a solitary main character running from something, or a black-and-white pentagram are discussed. The document also notes the use of symbols like pentagrams to emphasize horror and thriller themes of the supernatural.
Media Unit 1 AO1b
The 2005 film The Descent was produced by Celador Films to entertain audiences through genres like horror and thriller, attracting those interested in such films and ultimately making a profit. It uses techniques like graphic violence, limited lighting, ominous music and sound to immerse viewers and elicit fear. While the story follows a group of female spelunkers who encounter dangerous cave dwellers, analysts believe the film suggests the women ultimately become monsters themselves.
The location and characters for our final task
The document describes three locations and three characters for a thriller film project by a student group. Location 1 is an empty hallway that will be used at the beginning to create mystery. Location 2 is a drama studio where three characters will discuss mysterious dreams. Character 1, Jess, has a premonition of a girl running in a hallway. Character 2, Ellie, has nightmares of the same and feels distressed. Character 3, Charlotte, disagrees with them until having a premonition herself at the end, leaving the audience with confusion.
Thriller2
The document analyzes and summarizes various shots from a thriller sequence. It discusses a long shot of a character walking to a barn that establishes the setting and foreshadows events. It also examines a black and white flashback scene and a relaxing opening scene that contrasts with the dramatic plot. Finally, it discusses a blurred background figure and a point of view shot from the victim's perspective to connect the audience and enhance tension. The analysis provides examples for the group to consider using similar shots in their own thriller opening sequence.
Analysis of a Short Film
The document provides an analysis of the film "Tick Tock". It summarizes that the film follows Roland Barthes' "Enigma Code" by keeping the narrative a mystery until the end. While the film is in reverse throughout, key clues are revealed about the characters and their relationship. In the end, it is revealed that the beginning of the film is actually the end, and vice versa. Color and lighting are used to build tension and convey emotion. Overall the film challenges the audience to reflect on time and relationships through its unconventional structure and storytelling techniques.
A2 Media Studies: Question 6
The document discusses how narrative is portrayed in movie trailers through three main elements: setting, climactic scenes, and protagonists. It provides examples from the trailers for The Woman in Black, Jessabelle, and Mama. The settings establish where the main story takes place. Climactic scenes hint at key plot points without revealing too much. And details about the protagonists, like their backstories or reactions, give insights into the narrative. Overall, the trailers use these elements to immerse viewers in the story and pique their curiosity without fully explaining the complete plot.
Still image analysis
This scene analysis summarizes key scenes from the trailer for the film "Lights Out". It notes that the trailer uses conventional horror techniques like focusing on a distressed female protagonist, using dark and red lighting to convey danger, and including gory or scary imagery to demonstrate that the film will not hold back. Symbolism and callbacks to earlier scenes help set expectations for a film with a mysterious and powerful supernatural threat.
Textual analysis
The opening sequence of The Possession begins with a close-up shot of an old woman looking extremely worried while holding an antique box engraved with symbols. It is revealed through cross-cutting that the box is the source of her distress. As she tries to destroy the box, she begins chanting in a foreign language and her body contorts, seemingly possessed by a supernatural force within the box. Throughout, a song plays about heaven, contrasting with the evil force of the box. The sequence wastes no time establishing the supernatural themes of possession and evil that will be central to the film's plot.
Film Trailer Analysis
The trailer uses various editing techniques to build tension and mystery. It employs short, fast-cut clips to avoid revealing too many spoilers while still showing glimpses of scary moments. Transitions between scenes are often only 1 second to continually ramp up a feeling of unease. Jump scares, dark cinematography, and unsettling sounds and music further frighten the audience. The plot involves characters exploring a mysterious cave and encountering unexplained phenomena that seem linked to their pasts. As they delve deeper, more secrets and horrors are revealed. The trailer ultimately leaves viewers wanting to know more about the film's full story.
Cape Fear Opening Analysis - AS Level Media
The opening sequence of Cape Fear uses various cinematography techniques to set a ominous tone. Images of rippling water are shown in blue and black colors associated with death and depression. A shot of a flying eagle represents power while low camera angles make the audience feel vulnerable. Pictures appearing from underwater add a sense of mystery and fear of the unknown. The title sequence includes the sound of a brewing storm to create tension and fear for the characters and audience. The film then cuts to a prison cell, using point of view shots and zooms to track a male character's release from prison, as indicated by creaking doors and ominous music swelling as he emerges, establishing him as a threat.

Style and content 3
- 1. Style and content The narrative structure of the film is two halves. Firstly there is the tragedy and cabin scene, and then the second half is cave exploring with the survival and horror aspect. To add context to the movie, the first half was used to make Sarah the kind of character nobody believes due to her mental issues. The first half is also used to trick the audience into predicting the horror to be hallucinations rather than the crawlers therefore the first appearance of the crawler could shock the audience and frighten them at the same time. In the second half, the characters go through a series of horrific moments with gaps long enough to cause the audience to get scared again but not so long that they stop being scared altogether. Whenever a crawler comes out of nowhere, there are screeching sounds edited in to make the scene a jump scare. This film does use ‘Toderov’s narrative theory’ even though the ending does not restore equilibrium. In this theory, a successful movie will begin at equilibrium, then have some kind of issue bringing chaos. This will lead to a realisation of what is happening followed by a solution which brings everything back to equilibrium. The problem is, this movie does not seem get past the realisation stage because there is no resolve to being in a cave with monsters due to the characters being killed. There is, however, a solution even though it is not clear. At the end of the movie, Sarah dies and sees her daughter again, which is all she wanted. This somewhat brings back equilibrium despite every character having been killed, therefore making the film obey this theory.
