In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms
and conventions of real media products?
The narrative of the plot is
very stereotypical in order with any other crime-drama/detective film;
following a detective whom is trying to ‘crack’ a case. This is one of two
types of crime drama story-lines, which the other one is following a murderer.
Another way our story-line connotes to that of a crime drama narrative is the
fact that there is: Moral and ethical issues, as well as a resolution to a
mystery (although this is not seen within the 2 minute opening sequence).
The settings/locations we used also
connote to the theme as we filmed in an office, a corridor and a woods.
Silence is used in some areas
of our film to create an atmosphere (suspense) within the film which is a main
attribute to a crime drama genre.
Following on with the detective theme, we have used a track called ‘Chinese Dog’ on a cliff-hanger at the end of the 2 minute sequence; it has a deep bass noise to it which provides a mysterious feel to the consumer of the film, and it will make the consumer of the film want to watch on.

We also used some disorientated music in some of the scenes. This makes the viewer of the film have a sense of unease and immerses the audience in to the film
In our film we used a lot of tracking/dolly shots . This is to ‘follow’ the protagonist, Jake, as he’s the main character. The use of pan shots are to establish the environment of the scene, which is again used in many detective films.
The murderer in our film wears tracksuit bottoms, a
hoodie –with the hood up, and a black coat. This creates a mysterious, sinister
feel to the antagonistic character. This is a convention, and a code, in a film of the crime drama genre as stereotypically the villain is .
