Over the past couple of lessons we have been learning about cinematography which is camera work. I've learnt that different styles of filming have developed since the technology has increased and we are able to mirror the things we actually see onto the camera. I've also learnt that the camera man uses different types of shots because they have different impacts on the viewer (emotion) There is two key elements to cinematography: - Framing of a shot (what we can see on screen) e.g. close shots & longshot (landscape) - Movement of the camera e.g. tilting the camera and zooming. As well as this, i now know that filming can be hard as the cinematographer has to decide how to present a certain piece of action towards a viewer and look at things from the viewers perspective and show how it tells a story. I will use different movements of the camera in my film opening as i think it will make it more dramatic, especially as Grace and I have decided to switch to a romantic cri
In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products? Above are 9 key frames from my film opening – Insiders.

We were inspired to add the title of the location and time onto the shot, to remind the audience that this film opening although romantic, is part of the
How did you attract/address your audience? script: Our film comes under the sub genre of an ‘Urban Fairytale’ so we ensured we used the typical conventions of this, to attract our target audience, For example our protagonist commits crimes to join a group and receive acceptance from them. Due to our film being a 12A we aimed it at women and men from the ages of about 12-25, as it has romantic yet crime conventions making it more appealing to both genders. Throughout creating our film we received frequent feedback from people of different ages, including teenaged girls so we could include our audiences interests and adapt our film to their preferences. One point of feedback we acted upon was the cutting out of dialogue. Initially we had much more dialogue between the characters, however the feedback we received told us our audience were not interested by it. Our film was set in a contemporary landscape, the busy shopping centre of Covent Garden in London, typical for an
