Evaluation

1. In what ways does your medi product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real mediaproducts?

Our piece of media coursework challenges the traditions of most thriller openings by it starting the open in a public place unlike most thrillers which usaully start in an out of the way place such as an old abandoned building after a crime has already been committed which shrouds everything in mystery.

2. How does your media product represent particular media groups?

The main group that is portrayed in our work is the teen/young people of todat as they are the people acting out their respective places in the video. The second group that it could be said that are portrayed are people around the south-eastern area of London due to this area being the main place that the media project takes place.

3.What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

The media institute that might distribute our media would be a group like Film four or United artists due to it being a low budget, British film with a British cast. There isn't much chance of another company over seas taking on the film project because most over seas because it either doesn't meet the standards that hollywood block bustres dish out on a regular basis and that most other countries don't speak English so if they were to go to other countries a dubbing process would be in order meaning that our work still isn't complete.

4.Who would be the audience for your media product?

The target audience on a greneral level is those that like the thriller genre while a more in depth target would be someone who likes or would like to see into the mind of a person growing up in an urban area now days, and what phsycotic ideas litter their mind, e.g. crime, murder etc.

5.How did you attract/addressyour audience?

The way we addressed the audience and attracted them was by setting the film locally so most of the areas in the film seem familliar to local people so we would atleast have support from the community around Essex aswell as that of the fans of the genre would regularly go to see it.

6.What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

I have learnt that the technologies used in creating a film wasn't as complicated and hard as it was the first time we used it in the preliminary exercise so the work was done a little quicker this time but we added extra stuff such as transitions once we figured out where they were and how to use them.

7. Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you fell you have learnt in the progression from it to the product?

Looking back at the preliminary exercise I see that I learned to take more time and patience doing the editting. Though a point must be made that the shots in that weren't as good as the could of been because we were missing a member of our group so we had to make do with just a tripod to hold the camera.
