Title: Point-is symbolism of the ballet dancers point shoes as well as the point of the stalkers knife 


My target audience: Mature audiences

The 6-15 genre conventions i will include in my film are:
  • atmosphere
  • foreshadowing
  • surprise
  • suspense
  • passion
  • stillness

Characters and names with detailed explanations about their purpose in the film and their background/relationship with other characters:

Our dancer (cast as Hannah) i decided to just name Hannah as it is easier
and the stalker has no name other than "stalker" The dancers role in the film is to be the vulnerable character which we needed in order for the stalker to take its dominant role as being terrifying to our audience. and from what our audience knows, there are no clues or previous relationship between these two characters which are revealed

Practicalities of filming/content 
Examples:

  • How realistic is your idea?:

Unlike our last preliminary task, "the chase" this idea of ours is seemingly more realistic which will hopefully build suspense in a more defined way for our target audience
  • Will you have any health/safety issues?:
No health/safety issues are involved, except for dancing, which is a very low safety issue
  • Locations and any necessary permission:
We need permission to use the dance studio at church/school.
  • Timing:
We plan to film next Wednesday night when the dance studio is empty and there wont be many people or bright lights disturbing the feel of our film. 

  • Weather and back up options:
Our back up options would be to film at someones house such as mine or aim to film another day
  • equipment:
We will be using some lighting tools as well as a boom and our usual camera combined with an SD card to record our footage

Bourne identity essay

  Media studies  In this specific scene in the Bourne identity, produced by Universal studios and directed by Doug Liman, the camera angles create so much impact and unravel so many media codes within each shot. Some of the boats, including a pontoon have the key colours (red and blue-representing is future and past)We first get an establishing shot, which shows it is gloomy, cold and serious which also establishes it is not a very happy nor friendly place. It also brings a sense of government empowerment and control through the cold view of the docks, linking to the dangers he is about to walk into and brings through an environment that shouldn't be trusted.  As Bourne enters the new location off the boat onto the cold street, the camera zooms into his face, showing his confused and lost expression as he examines his surroundings, showing us he is still unsure and it makes the scene overall unfamiliar to both Bourne and audience. After the transition, we see the camera moves smoot

Downtown Abbey Representation practice + essay notes

Who (out of the 7 core representation areas of society) are being represented in this clip?  (you can choose more than 1 category if you feel it's relevant) Status is being represented. we can see through the activity of the different classes and they way they are both presented through costumes, music and mise-en-scene 2. How are they represented to us? (what messages are we told about these groups? What are they like? What are their lives like? What are we encouraged / persuaded to think about them?) we are told through the conveying messages that there are two separate groups in the household. the lower, hard-working class and the the higher more luxurious family who expect the lower class to do their duties each morning. they are rich and well sophisticated. we know this through the wise words of Robert crawley who answered his daughter who had the question of; "I thought it was supposed to be unsinkable"(7:59) with; "Every mountain is unclimbable until someone c
