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


Panels from left to right and top to bottom

1st panel: This shows our Title. It is positioned center frame as opposed to the other titles which are mostly of in a corner apart from some of the actors. This is done so that the audience can differentiate between the Title of the film and the rest. It is also in a much larger font so that it different from every other title.

2nd panel: This shows the setting of our film. Our location was supposed to be set in a remote forest because interrogation like that would attract attention in reality. 

3rd panel: This both shows our title font and also a cinematography technique we used. The font name is Lemon/Milk which i used because I liked the large bold letters and it also felt like a font which would have been used in the 50's. The cinematography part of this shot is the use of our crane which we used here to set the scene and its atmosphere. It performs a panning shot showing all the characters and the beating up.

4th panel: This is a high shot moving upwards this is our last shot this is used to give a dramatic effect before the rest of the movie plays. It shows what just happens and gives the audience time to reflect on what just happened.

5th panel: Here we have a representation of our story and genre. It is obvious that the entire piece is in black and white but this clearly shows that this is supposed to be a film noir. This knife threatening part is also a bit where the sub genre of the movie is shown which is crime. Its not something which you would normally see in any other sub genre.

6th panel: This shows the costume we used. We stuck mostly to suits,black trousers and white shirts as they were readily available and it would be something which would be worn in this time period.

7th panel:This is another part of cinematography. This shows a match on action shot as the person just started walking and we know can see his feet walking. 

8th Panel: This shows the subtitles we used as the actors spoke in German, we chose german as we where familiar with the language but the idea was to hint towards mafia. The subtitles are there so that the audience knows what is going on but we choose not use major dialogue as to only hint to it so that the narrative is easy to under stand.

9th panel: In this last panel the shot of all our actors is shown. I like this shot as it shows the hierarchy of our characters. You can clearly see who is in charge as he is separated from the other actors. And between the two other the one beating the other up is clearly in charge there.
