Evaluation

  In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?


We deciced that the genre for our title sequence was thriller,we researched the general codes and conventions for a thriller film and discovered that thriller are usually framed on building tensions throughout. The antagonist is also often kept secret throughout the film until very late on. Many close up shots are used to show emotions of characters within the title sequence. We decided to use  the codes and conventions of thriller and make our title sequence conventional and to go along with the thriller theme.The shots in our title sequence could be said to be conventional as they are very dark and quick which moves along with the story. We made the shots black and white and included intense music to move along the storyline and build tension. The montage scenes used made it clear to the audience that the main element of the plot was to find her brother through a journey, we used the montage to continually display this. The props and mise-en-scene of the title sequence fitted with the thriller theme as we used fake police evidence folders and files. This tells the audience that the criminal case was reopened and that it had an involvement of the police in the plot without actually physically showing this.The handwritten typography continued the theme of thriller by suggesting they looked like clues. The theme also kept to the codes and conventions of a thriller film as we used an investigation and secrecy of a character to create suspense. We also used editing and filming such as the low lighting, filters, music and props to enhance the thriller theme
