2. Background
The background image is
London because it has iconic
buildings showing where it’s
located at.
Here shows a low angle long shot of
a large dark big building making it
feel dangerous and intimidating the
council estate building ‘the block’
making it the main image as it
stands out more and giving a sense
of separation from the mainstream
of London City.
It shows night time with a
bit of mist gives it a bit of
mystery as you cant see
what’s coming giving
suspension and tension of
the unknown.
Things are falling out of the
sky as it’s unusual and can be
concerning as you don’t know
what it is. It can be bad news
if things are falling out from
the sky.

3. Characters

with casual street wear
and you can tell they are
from the block.
Here shows ethnicity and
different backgrounds

audience as more can
relate.
They’ve added extra characters
such as the middle aged smart
working women and the man at the
back has unflattering look this is
too broaden the audience’s so more
can relate and not only be aimed
for teenagers but it includes adults
as now there’s a wider range of ages
in this film.
The age rating of this film is 15 so the
target audience’s range’s around 15-25
as older people do enjoy this type of
film as it’s a comedy sci-fi film. Most
people who enjoy Nick Frost and
Simon Pegg films would enjoy this
film.
Here shows a low angle long shot
showing their body postures
looks like their watching
something or ready to attack or
fight and shows conflict with the
way they are positioned and one
of them are carrying a weapon.
What also shows

bike and the urban
street wear of the
young generation
today.
