Question one 12 02 14
The film Released uses conventions of the psychological thriller genre in its opening title sequence. Shots include low-key lighting, close-ups of eyes to portray mystery, and scenes in a populated area like Brighton to make the audience feel involved. While adhering to thriller conventions like tension-building music and not revealing characters, one shot of an antagonist walking challenges conventions by revealing a character. The font, contrasting colors, and layered shots are intended to portray a confused mind as in psychological thrillers. Overall the sequence aims to set an atmospheric and suspenseful tone through conventional thriller techniques with some unconventional reveals.

Question one 12 02 14
Our film Released follows conventions of the psychological thriller genre through its use of low key lighting, dark shots of Brighton, and close ups suggesting mystery. While having a female protagonist challenges the genre, the opening title sequence aims to be conventionally tense through its building soundtrack mixing radio cuts and conversations. Shots of a busy Brighton and dark clothing aim to portray familiar thriller settings and tones. While some shots reveal characters or have atypical effects, the titles generally stick to thriller conventions through its san-serif title font, contrasting colors, and focus on eyes to portray an unsettled mindstate.
Se7en analysis
The opening sequence of the film Se7en effectively sets a creepy and violent tone through its use of graphic and dark imagery, distorted music featuring screams, and titles that appear against dark backgrounds. The camerawork shows disturbing and mysterious acts without revealing the perpetrator, establishing the thriller and horror genres. Objects seen include disturbing images, suggesting the antagonist is a psychopathic killer who may keep souvenirs. The fast-paced editing in a montage style does not provide many details, adding mystery. The nondiegetic music with screams accentuates the disturbing nature of the sequence and its themes of murder.

Question 1
Our Thriller opening 'Clean Cut' challenges conventions by presenting religious themes and supernatural wounds without showing an antagonist. It adapts Thriller conventions like showing the protagonist in peril and including crime-related sounds to isolate her. Manipulating perspectives through mirrors and TV effects adds to the supernatural theme. The sequence fits the Supernatural Thriller subgenre through its inclusion of religion and themes of physical pain. The protagonist Anna follows conventions as a weak victim who will overcome challenges. The plain white bathroom location and polaroids used in credits maintain a cold, hostile atmosphere in line with genre conventions. Unusual camera techniques like stop motion bleeding create an unsettling tone.

The woman in black trailer analysis
The trailer uses various film techniques to build tension and scare the audience. It begins with establishing shots of a train and isolated house to set the ominous tone. Close-ups of the protagonist reveal his fear and uncertainty. Foreboding music plays as he explores the dark, abandoned house. Jump scares and images of children in danger heighten the fear. The climax shows a ghostly figure screaming at the protagonist. Throughout, the use of low lighting and isolated settings encodes the narrative with supernatural mystery and leaves the audience unsettled.

Eval task 11
The document discusses various forms and conventions used in music videos, including camera shots, editing techniques, costumes, props, lighting, and locations to convey meaning and move the narrative. It also examines how these same conventions are applied to other media forms like a digital album cover and website to create cohesion across products and represent the artist as a genuine, organic musician working to achieve success.
Evaluation task 1
The document discusses conventions used in music videos. It provides examples from the author's own music video for an artist named Alec. Some conventions discussed and used include close-up shots to emphasize emotion, long shots to establish location, rhythmic editing to match the song, costume and prop changes to show the artist's progression, and natural lighting and locations to portray the artist as down-to-earth. Inspiration was drawn from artists like Ed Sheeran and Passenger who began as buskers and grew in success. The locations and lighting were chosen to fit the narrative of Alec as a new, hardworking artist striving to make it in the industry.
Pitch 1
The document proposes an idea for a music video about revenge. In the proposed story, a teenage girl finds out her boyfriend has been cheating on her and becomes overwhelmed with anger and the desire for revenge. At the beginning of the video, the girl is dressed innocently, but after discovering the cheating, she transforms into a "bad ass" girl dressed all in black with dark makeup and piercings. Throughout the video, the girl is surrounded by smoke, fire and other dark elements as she destroys her ex-boyfriend's belongings like his guitar and car to enact revenge.
Whistle for the choir powerpoint
The music video idea involves a male busker on the street who writes and performs the song "Whistle For The Choir." Over time, his performances attract more attention as his small audience grows. Throughout his performances, the same woman walks by daily without noticing him. Eventually, the pub owner offers him a gig where his audience continues expanding. During his largest performance, the woman looks up from her phone and recognizes the man is singing about her.

Artist transferamtion
Miley Cyrus originally gained fame playing the innocent character Hannah Montana on the Disney channel. However, she radically transformed her image after the show, cutting her hair short, bleaching it blonde, and adopting a more rebellious persona. This was seen in her music video for "Wrecking Ball," which featured nudity and sexual imagery, and greatly contrasted with her previous Disney image. While this new image attracted controversy and lost her some original fans, it also led to massive publicity and more mainstream success. Music theorists like Richard Dyer and Keith Negus have analyzed how music stars construct public images and personas in order to appeal to audiences and generate revenue for the music industry.

Task 1 in what ways does my media product
- 1. Evaluation Task 1 In what ways does my media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media product?
- 2. Hiding under the table The Sixth Sense Home alone The character from the sixth sense and home alone are both children who are scared and are hiding under tables, similarly Isabella is hiding under a table from a ‘monster’ in fear.
- 3. Unconscious shots Hollyoaks Esther Bloom Coronation Street's Sally Webster Neighbours Mason hopes My thriller action shot bellow The shot from my thriller sequence has captured different aspects from the pictures above, the camera is on the same level as the floor and I am lying in the same position as the woman in the black shirt. The actors in these photos have got fake blood on there faces, we were going to apply fake blood but then we thought it would ruin the shot as it may have been just a little to much
- 4. Closing into the scene The build up of a Sense of Isolation the audience is already subconsciously appreciating that any problems will be hightoned because there is no one around to help. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. I AM LEDGEND
- 5. Loneliness Vs. There is no one to be seen in both of the bellow, there is complete isolation. In my opening sequence there is no action with humans until the very end , this creates tension because if someone is now in trouble then there is no one around to help them.
- 6. Lighting Our thriller sequence isn't like a typical thriller, in a way that our thriller was shot during broad day light . We didn’t need the darkness to create a mysterious eerie feeling, we used establishing shots of woods, lakes, and lanes to create an on edge feeling. Most thrillers have to have dark lighting as it has connotations of murder and unexpected actions. My thriller Rear windows Rear windows doesn’t have any mysterious shots of woods as it was set in the city and you can see in the picture above the difference there is shooting in day light and a darker light.
- 7. Lighting Scream Scream was also shot inside a house but was shot during the night, there are many aspects very similar to my opening title thriller such as she is in the house alone just like the two girls. In both the thrillers there is something left either cooking or boiling. This adds to the tension. Pop corn cooking My thriller A shot of the outside the house at night We have put the blinds down in the kitchen to try and make the room seem darker
- 8. Jump scareMy thriller The grudge The suspense in the grudge sequence builds for much longer than in my thriller as the director has decided to follow the character showing the expressions on her face and he is subconsciously hinting to us that she isn’t alone. In the thriller I created it has the same out come as the grudge, a jump scare, but to create the suspense we have used many establishing shots. It isn't clear in this photo But she is being dragged up the cupboard.
- 9. TITLES The title we chose is very similar to those on the left hand side. We chose to keep a simple black background and white text, this was because as you can see on the right hand side the top to pictures have a different colour back ground and it just distracts the audiences eyes from the name of the film. The simpler the text the better as it stands out more. We chose white text over red because red has connotations of death, violence and blood, this may either give away the fact it’s a very detailed horror movie and prevent people from watching.
