In what ways does your media product use, develop or

challenge forms and conventions of real media

products?

My opening scene is a thriller/action

A genre convention is the stereotypical way that the viewer sees a film genre. It allows

the audience to distinguish between genres.

I will be looking at these types of media and titles

Colombiana My thrillerUses conventions:Character positioning

Strong kick

Subverts the normal stereotype of a woman in filmBoth characters are quite young

Blind Spot My thriller

Subverts a normal stereo type for an assassin

The tomb raider character is similar because she isa woman who is a main character. She also has many

of the same traits and genre conventions that our two main characters have.

Batman Begins Our thriller

Both of the main characters in each media extract share the same conventions.

For example the are both upper class and powerful.
