song decision

As a team we needed a good idea for some sound. We chose some music that related to our genre of detective. We all had different ideas but the decided on a cover of paramore's "decode". we decided on acoustic version compared to the real version because we preferred the acoustic version. it was more interesting that the normal version. 
this is the song we chose.

developing our ideas!

Today our group have made development, We have finally after a great debate, A name for our movie! "The secrets of Mr Myles" is our detective movie idea, It is based upon a family that has been murdered and a team of police investigators that are willing to find out.
We have also come up with a font, a colour for writing and even an evil symbol for the murder. we have decided to do:

怕 as our symbol, It means fear in traditional chinese.

mood board

We were asked to produce a mood board with in the group. we decided to make our mood board based on our decision of genre. we decided to do a detective so we gathered some images of stereotypical detectives, blood and some types of movies similar to our chosen idea.

audience research

We aimed out target audience at 16+ . We decided this because we could have a wide choice of film openings and also because we know what type of films our age like. We produced a questionnaire and asked as many people who were 16 and over to give their opinions on genre and what interest them in films, we got a mixed review of answers.

My Idea

We had to produce around 40 word on what our idea would be. My idea was quite simple. Mine was to have a book of photos skipping through with a family that had just been murdered. afetr the book with the titles and the murdered family, there would be a news report reporting on the murders.

codes and conventions of cloudy with a chance of meatballs

After analysing se7en we had to analyse a different film. i chose a completely different genre, a cartoon comedy/ family film. i found it rather easy to analyse due to the amount of times i have watched it but i found se7en more difficult as i havent seen that film.

codes and conventions in se7en

In our lessons we had to analyse the opening to se7en. We had to say what different codes were used in different catergories. some catergories didnt have any codes in it where as some had all three codes used in it. (technical, symbol and written codes)
