Gattaca

Target audience: possible for parents

Genre: science fiction film

Convention : it meets the convention because it uses special effects, using supernatural images

Title/Fonts: Fonts were blurry and small this create suspense and was unrealistic. The small writing, you would need a magnifying glass to see it which enhances the idea of a science fiction movieThe use the word GATTACA which is a DNA strand using for single letter ACTG. Its a connotation of the science fictions drama and also it creates realism.

Sound: when the man was shaving and grooming himself it created realism. it created a vivid image to the audience of what he might be doing.non- digetic. we can hear this when he was clipping his nail and hair trimming. Also the background sound was a classical sounding, which creates confusion because in a lab you never know what kind of reaction you get when things are combined together.

Camera shots: Closed up were used and was focus on the hair, finger, blood, eyelashes. It suggest that the he is not yet presented to us and its a mystery to find out.

Camera movement: There was a lot of movement when the title was showing. It kept zooming out the word which made it dramatic.

Transition: used are overlapping

Editing/ pace: the whole production was very slow which suggest that in a lab you take your time.

Seven

Font: The credits names has been scratched. It could suggest that the dark part of the person and his obsession . Also there were contrast of upper and lower case. The fonts also were very jumpy and flashy/abnormal.

Genre: Thriller

Target Audience: 18 and over

Lighting: In some places the light appears quite dim, for example when he is looking at the murder scene. This is classic in a thriller film to have dark lighting to build tension and draw the audience in.

Special Effects: Scratchy font to engage audience with titles being more effective. The bullet noises, slow motion and the fact that every bullet was magnified.

Editing:

The colour used connotes a lack of feeling, flashes of red paper which intermittently, connoting violence. These connation suggest a dark subject matter .

Music: is rough and reflect the overall disturbing tone of the film

Editing: The shots are quick cut, adding tension to the film. Although the shots are quick, they are also smooth, so the story can begin to build.

Camera Shot: close-up was used a lot in the opening sequences to get us to know that these objects are the main part of the sequences to solving the murder

The sounds and noises heard in the opening scene are noises which you would link with Machinery in a factory or a warehouse. The director would have chosen to do use theses sounds because it gives the idea that this character could be planning to do something dangerous or is committing crimes. The sounds in the opening sequence are an example of non-digetic sounds. The sounds in the opening sequence are also quite screechy and creepy to create the sense of someone suffering.

Camera angles: The very first shot is a mid-shot which shows a man from behind. 

Lord of warGenre: Drama Film

Target Audience: 16 +

Lord of War is a film aimed at mainly Male from around the age of 16+ and are middle working class males.

The title 'LORD of WAR' comes on the screen, directly confirming to the audience that this is actually about war, and not just a common relation with the term 'war'. The size of the text is over shadowed by the presence of the bullet, towering over the letters, stating authority. The font isn't fancy. It doesn't need to be, the words that it says is just enough. It has no point to prove, and no means to over complicate the mise-en-scene of the shot.

Title/Font

Camera Angle: The first scene starts with a crane shot coming down overlooking a factory.

camera shots are used when the bullet is dropped and begins to roll. The camera remains in a 1st person shot spinning around and around until it is picked up just before falling over the edge of a dock. When it is picked up a finger and thumb appear each side of the camera making it very realistic as if the camera is really a bullet being picked up

Camera movement: camera was shaking which made it realistic when the person was moving the bullet to the truck.

Lighting: The lighting shows how far around the world this bullet has travelled. From a dark factory to a pale shipping dock .

It then becomes dark to show how the bullet is still in the womb of its process as it gradually gets lighter as it is shipped about until finally the bullet is taken out of its box and spilled onto the floor.

Sound:calm and relaxed and not at all the sort of song you would expect to be played when corresponded with images of bullets, guns and death. However the pace of the song matches the flow of the course the bullet is taking.

Transition: smooth as the flow from scene to scene. This could represent that the bullet are transported with comfort and the process is very straightforward,
