Q.1 In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and convention of real media products?



Our horror movie, we decveloped conventions by looking at other scary movie with serial killers such as 'The messenger;'Disturbia' and Mirror.
  • The conventions we used in the first ,seventh and sixth frame are props to jar filled in blood and hair which automatically lets the audience know the genre of the film. Also it makes it more mysterious and creepy. It gives a clue on what the scary movie going to be about.
  • The secaoud frame is shown by high angle to capture the victim on the floor hurt and is in danger, it shows the serial killers feet as it he is looking down on at his victim. The convention in this frame is the costume which shows in all frame. The serial killer is dressed scruffy and in black and the babysitter is also dressed in black and is dressed causal to create an innocent young lady.
  • The third frame captures the setting, the 'Serial Killer' house where the drama is mostly happeneds. The babysitter walks in the house carmly not knowing their she;s in danger. The convention we used in this frame is props, the babysitter has a hangbag and is wearing heels. Aslo the sound of her footsteps expresses the anticipation of danger.
  • The fourth frame shows the 'killer' is looking through the hole so the convention we used is camera work ,the 'serial killer' bending down to look through the hole.
  • The fifth frame we used was an etablishing shot of the house... The convention we used in the title of our film, the font type is bold and spooky.
  • The eighth frame, features the two characters, the first frame is a split scene shot showing the killer spiking the babysitter drink and the babysitter going through her bag. The convention we used is the prop, the white powder he pores into water.
