Question 1

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

My film is about a psycho who used to be normal but ended up becoming who he is and kills or hurts people for fun thinking its normal.

The conventions of a Thriller Genre stuff like Enigma, Macguffin and Red Hearing. An Enigma is a puzzle that films makers like Alfred Hitchcock likes to put in his films as he likes to challenge his audience. A MacGuffin is when the Director makes a situation and leaves the audience think that's the problem and and the whole story goes later to find out that thats not the problem as its something else. And a Red Herring is a rhetorical question. Knowing this knowledge we decided to put a MacGuffin in our film as we thought to put a a situation in the film.


I would say that our film is a bit similar to most thriller as it has a psycho just like most thriller's do. Also it has a innocent person that cant help her self and doesn't what is going on.        

These Two images are similar as you see both of them looking at the camera very scary. This is what gave us inspiration to have a scene like that in our film. We decided to use this because in these shots you can see that they are scary and a psycho. With our film we zoomed into the psycho face to show his face and who he is. The hair style was also inspired as we wanted to make the hair as messy as possible just like Michael  Jackson's hair in his video Thriller.

 

Here is another scene which is the same because you both victims walking away from the camera. This is also gave us inspiration because is most thrillers you see the victim walking away in some way. The similarities between the two is that they both have a bag.
