BY RISHI GHETIA

Genre:Colourful/interesting colours, and fun joyful song. Person on ID- Funny looking comical character.Great flow of sequence then at the end the character aggressively shuts burger (makes the sequence funny) These features suggest that the genre is comedy.

Narrative:Based in a school, or about a Teenager; Student ID card, the foods chosen (burger) is something teens seem to enjoy or eat more of. The ninja weapon is made out of foil, and suggests the character is young and the stereotypical teenage ‘geek’.Movie seems to be based in America, because the foods chosen are very American, and the alien on the card suggests America.

Character: The character in the ID seems to be the main character in the film. Appears to be a teenager, hence the student ID card, the teenage food, and ninja weapon; weapon also makes the teenager look like a stereotypical geek.

Atmosphere: Fun Atmosphere, happy uplifting song, colourful foods and plates.

Genre: Blood hand writing (Gruesome Horror), Screaming Sounds Visuals of Zombies. Constant use of the colour red; Title/names get sucked up (visual effects) – representing that zombies have had their life sucked out of them.

Narrative: Dialogue between people talking about ‘Whether it is a virus’ (suggests zombie apocalypse). Visual videos of Riots, suggesting the world is in ruins. First scene is Muslims praying, may be representing that Muslims are brainless following the wrong religion, same way zombies are brainless. Shows the white house under attack suggesting that no one is safe. Also scenes of biological DNA/cells suggesting that there has been a mutation or there is a scientific explanation.

Character: Soldiers, are shown continuously suggesting they may have a significant role in the film.Zombies have the most screenplay proposing that the film revolves round them.

Atmosphere: Tense – Screaming and Man Speaking (undiegetic).Tone of speech is deep adding to tension. Atmosphere of Fear, shows white house is under attack (no one is safe). Use of gruesome zombie visuals. Showing Muslims praying adds to the fear that religion is now the only hope (unreliable hope)
