Question 1 - Conventions of Real Media Products

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

Title of the film and Font Style:

This screenshot shows the title of the film, being 'Powder' and this also shows the font style. This font style was also used on other titles throughout this film.







Location/Setting:

 These screenshots show the settings of the film. The top picture shows that it is set in a house for a part of the film and the bottom picture shows the film being set outside, next to a random building which is an old, unused school.

Costume/Props:

The picture depicts the costume and a prop. Costume for Jimmy (as seen on the right, played by me) was just plain, casual clothes likes jeans, a t-shirt and hoody. For the mob boss (as seen on the left, played by Luke M), he wore a leather jacket and jeans. Finally, Big Arth (played by Luke M), wore PJs since the character mostly stayed at home. As for props, the mob boss is holding a pair of scissors as a weapon to threaten Jimmy with.

Lighting/Camera Angles:

This picture depicts the camera angle that is panning from the TV to the sofa that has Luke M lying on it. The lighting is shown from the natural light shining in through the window.







Characterization:

This is the characterisation screenshots which depict me, Haydn and Charlie in the top picture and Luke M in the bottom. These were the only actors in our opening sequence.
