Evaluation question 1

Q. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?





Conventions are very important to a film as they help the the audience to understand and relate to the film and give them an idea of how to film will be. One of the films that inspired our sequence was 'The Chase' which inspired our titles and music. 
The first part of any teen drama films are the title credits. They first open up the film and there is a conventional way in which they are shown. For example production, distribution, actors, casting, costume, music supervisors, photography, editor, director. The position in where the title comes can differ from film to film, although typically it come after the names of the main actors/actresses or at the end after director.


Independent title sequence:
Ident ( a couple depending on how many sponsered the film)
production companies
Distribution Companies
Movie Title
Main Actor/actress
Other ( less know) actors
Casting by
Edited by


This is the order of our titles in our title sequence:
Some of our titles follow the typical convention order, however not all of them do.


This is the title sequence for Kidulthood which was one of the inspirations for our film.
One of the differences between our title sequence and Kidulthood is that our title name comes near the beginning after 'Henry Trek Presents' but Kildulthoods title comes at the end. We decided to position our title here because it adds to the mystery of what the garage is about and gives the audience the chance to figure out what the film could possibly be about. I also think it just establishes the film and works really well at the beginning.
