Evaluation Q1

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











In both film opening, it immediately tells the audience about the genre of the film, not telling them that it is in the Horror genre but the main idea it to achieve this effect with music because the music is the main character of the fill it transfer the emotion of the film the straight to the audience. However it didn't give a clear impression of establishing scary atmosphere, it works together with the music to build up tension as the opening sequence is being played.

Also, despite the movie title wasn't shown/displayed in the opening sequence itself, blue-coloured transparent tear-shaped water droplets were used to hint the audience about the movie title (movie title: Tears). Film companies and the various details about the members who were involved in the film were mentioned before the introduction of the story. 

We did quiet the same in our opening we didn't add it as affect as appearing on the scree we write all introduction in advance and put it in the book and film it as two shots combine together Close-up shot and POV shot at the same time

However the introduction in real film is last longer than our we can only see story at 2:31 location was normal for horror film in forest but not during the night during the day on early morning or evening!!!  A girl is on the swing and after swing for a few secs, a dead body is shown to the audience (the body was hanged). Special sound effects were used when the body appeared. From that point of time, the film fully establishes the film genre.

We used the same idea in our film when we getting to the photo of the girl in album, loud music start to play and in the same time music is scary and cold ! From that point of time, the film fully establishes the film genre.
