Coursework Movie Evaluation Question 1

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

Mine and George’s film focuses on the genre thriller, because of the storyline. Our storyline is based on murder and the protagonist not knowing who killed the victim so our film strongly relates professional thriller films because of our storyline.  Our camera work also showed that our film was a thriller because there was some hand held camera work, short cuts and a large amount of close-up shots.

The mise-en-scene used in our film shows that our film is a thriller to the audience because; our film opens up in a garage with two young teenagers on the floor. The garage door is open which could leave the audience wondering why it has been left open and who put the two in the garage. Our main character also shows that our film is a thriller because throughout our short film the character is very confused and does not know what is going on due to the events that take place.

The editing in our film also clearly shows that our film is a thriller. This is because our film begins with a fade in and ends with a fade out. This adds mystery to the film and leaves the audience with a cliff hanger making them more curious as to what happens to the protagonist throughout the film
Lastly our film would relate to a thriller because it the title sequence our main title (Blood Money) is coloured with a white font and a red shadow as a blood effect. The main title also has an ellipsis showing that our film is mysterious.
