Q.1 In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of

real media products.

Conventions of film openings

There are different conventions of film openings, these conventions are based on the genre of the movie.

Establishing Genre

The first convention is establishing the genre; When establishing the genre of the movie it is vital to set up the theme which helps create the mood for the rest of the movie

Sound The second convention is sound; sound is vital because it

creates the atmosphere. Sound also creates tension which is good for the film because it gets the audience hooked which means it makes them want to continue watching the movie.

We used Foley sounds and other forms of sounds using soundtrack pro which helped us this helped us use, develop and challenge forms and conventions of real media products.

Titles The title is the third convention; the title includes,

the production company-the ident which always comes first in the process then depending on the importance of the person either the main actors or the director usually the directors name appears first. Then the name of the film will appear towards the end of the titles.

I was in charge of adding titles for our film opening. We have previously come across adding titles in, in two occasions, the re-editing and the prelim. This helped us understand how titles work and the sequence titles normally come in, in Hollywood movies

Titles

Location For our film we would needed a quiet room

which resembles a house And a location of a busy street with a police

van driving . The streets of Islington should be fine, and there is a police station nearby as well for filming police vehicles.

These locations are the most popular within our genre in real media products
