Question 1 - In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

• In the first screenshot, it shows the institutional value of this film. As it is a low budget film. we decided on our own name which reflects who we are as a group. We went for a bold, capital letter style font, as it can clearly show the audience who is involved in the film. There is no filming at this point, just a black screen which will fade into the first scene.
• The second screenshot shows the first of our titles, with this one being the director. The setting for this particular shot is in a country lane, away from the general public. We see a mid-shot of this character, and his facial expressions can give us the impression that he is not happy and perhaps wants something.
• The third screenshot is a similar shot to the 2nd one, however it shows the other character. A key difference in this shot is the mise en scene. This particular character is the owner of the mobile phone which gets stolen by the other character, and without this prop the whole film opening would be an entire waste of time.  
• In the fourth scene, we get to see the characters come together for the first time. This is an important scene as it sets up what is to be a lengthy chase scene for the rest of the opening. This is the point where the faster music commences, and we begin to get a broader look at where this is happening, despite having an establishing shot at the start.  

• The fifth shot further shows our text font which we have chosen for this film opening. we see the feet of both of the characters in this, which move in time with the titles as they appear and disappear off the screen.
• The camera in the 6th shot here remains still for the entirety of the fight scene, simply because we wanted all of the action to be fully captured. This a long shot as you can see the area in depth, and you can clearly see that this is set in the countryside, with there being a few houses in the middle of lots of green. This fight seals the deal and should make everyone who is watching aware that this is crime, with the innocent person scurrying to try and get his phone back.
• The seventh shot is a close up of the mobile phone. We did this so the audience could have a closer look at the key prop in this opening scene.
• Finally, this last shot shows a complete change in scenery, following a fade to black that would have occurred before this shot. There will be a voice over happening at this point, summarising to the audience what is happening and why the character stole the phone in the first place.
