Cowboys and Aliens media type="youtube" key="gfKWPNgTUlw" height="323" width="570" align="left"**The film starts with an establishing shot of the sky, time is shown to have passed by the editors use of the time lapse tool to speed up the motion. It then cuts to an upside down high angle shot of the protagonist lying on the ground, with some wounds to his face. He has no footwear and his clothes look weathered and dirty – leading us to believe that he has been through some kind of conflict. The cuts then change from short and sharp, to slow and smooth; he is filmed to now look well presented. Throughout this sequence there is a deep and slow voiceover of the protagonist explaining his thoughts, the audience understand there is confusion, and are therefore intrigued, the pace and pitch of the voiceover adds to the tension. The next location is then a bar or saloon. The lighting is dim, and the mise-en-scene resembles that of a western film; this is fitting as the film is set in that era. Daniel Craig the protagonist is filmed with close-ups and shots of him throughout the film are used heavily in the trailer. Another actor who is prominent within the trailer is Olivia Wilde, she is the attractive female lead, strengthening my view that film is aimed at young males aged 15 and over. Both Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford have been in successful action films – their names are used as caption in the trailer, this may be ploy to attract fans of the men to watch the film. Other captions indicate the directors and producers. The sounds used are typical Hollywood action sound effects, explosions and gunfire sounds are used. Heavy bass and electric guitars are used when the main action is at its climax. The unique selling point of the film is the concept, as the makers use a theme that is quite classic and merge it with one that is modern. **

Sherlock Holmes media type="youtube" key="I0hXhGt5XPg" height="346" width="459" **The trailer for Sherlock Holmes begins an establishing shot of 19th century London. A series of iconic landmarks such as the Houses of Parliament and the river Thames, are used to reinforce the setting. More iconography is used in the way of basic police artillery, different to the modern weapons. As this film is a police crime thriller props that are essential for the storyline are used such as close ups on handcuffs. Costumes associated with the 19th century are used. The female lead wears a red corset and stockings. Red could be symbolic of her character; as it connotes passion and sexuality. Through the narrative we see that she is capable of fight something that would have been quite rarte in that era – giving the impression that she uses her sexuality as tool to defeat her enemies similar to a femme fatal. All the men in the trailer that hold a status or power wear tailored suits, however the class divide is shown with other men of lower status just wearing trousers and a shirt. Although throughout the trailer dark ambient lighting is used as well as plain colours, but gold remains a prominent colour. Explosions and other special effects common within films of this genre are used. A sound score is used to compliment the action, strings are played in spiccato and a number of crescendos create an upbeat tempo to reflect the pace of the narrative. Sound effects of gunfire are used to present the actors names and the distributers. The target audience for this film I believe are males aged 15-25. This film is different to others in its genre because it takes a story that most people are familiar with and makes it modern. **

genre research. ** Police crime thriller is the genre of films that fictionalises crimes, the suspects and their motives. while the foundations for police crime thrillers were laid down as early as the 12th century in 'One Thousand and One Nights', this genre only began to be taken seriously in the 1900's. ****This particular genre of film has many catergories. ** ** Historical whodunnit the setting of the story and the crime has some historical significance. **** Inverted detective story also known as "howcatchem", the crime and the identity of the criminal is revealed to the audience first, then the rest of the film depicts the police’s attempt to solve the crime. ** ** Spoofs and parodies stories that make fun of the genre, often include caricature characters. **

**This film embodies all features of it's catergories. The audience are taken on a journey of suspicion and injustice. The victim is a young attractive female. **

**Rope is notable for taking place in real time and being edited so as to appear as a single continuous shot through the use of long takes. The thrill within this film is whether the culprits will be able t conceal their crime, as the audience are already enlightened as to who the murderers are. ** **Hot Fuzz is a parody thus it includes all aspects of police crime thriller and exaggerates them. Explosions, police car chaes etc. are all included. It features a police officer that takes his job too seriously so therefore can be likened to American hard-boiled police crime thriller. **

<span style="color: gray; display: block; font-family: impact,sans-serif; font-size: 64px; text-align: left;">

<span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 130%; text-align: center;">**The highest grossing films were the Spider Man films, these have a supernatural aspect which is what I think makes them successful as a police crime thriller has been done many times.**

<span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: Impact,Charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 700%; text-align: left;">**director case study.** <span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: Impact,Charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 500%; text-align: left;">**David Fincher** **<span style="color: gray; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','serif';">David Fincher, born in Colorado in 1962, is a prominent director known for his ‘dark and stylish’ thrillers. Although his most successful film was not a thriller, his other films of this genre have been very successful with ‘Seven’ grossing over $327 million. Fincher’s has reoccurring features in his themes such as downbeat endings, low angles and low key lighting – which all contribute to making a sinister melancholy tone in his films. His posters almost always feature a close up of a characters face. Fincher has always divided critics with his work, sometimes pushing boundaries too far for some and ticking every box for others. **

**<span style="color: gray; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','serif';">David Fincher’s films include: **<span style="color: gray; font-family: 'palatino linotype','serif'; text-decoration: none;">Alien 3 **<span style="color: gray; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','serif';">, Seven, The Game , Fight Club , Panic Room , Zodiac , The Curious Case of Benjamin Button , The Social Network and <span class="toctext" style="color: gray; font-family: 'palatino linotype','serif';">The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. **

<span style="color: gray; display: block; font-family: Impact,sans-serif; font-size: 96px; text-align: left;">ideological themes. **<span style="color: gray; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype',serif; font-size: 19px; text-align: left;">Betrayal ****<span style="color: gray; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype',serif; text-align: left;">Characters are often forced into a position where they have to chose between emotional ties and behind disloyal and choosing justice. This can lead to more complications, such as a character committing suicide or becoming an accomplice to the crime. ** ** <span style="color: gray; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','serif'; font-size: 19px;">Violence <span style="color: gray; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','serif';">This element is usually key, if it is absent in a film it could maybe be because the audience are supposed to sympathise with the criminal. However in almost all films of this genre violence is evident. ** ** <span style="color: gray; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','serif'; font-size: 19px;">Criminal activity <span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype',serif;"> Without this theme, I don’t think a crime thriller can be made. It usually involves the main character; but this doesn't necessarily mean that the character has committed the crime. ** ** <span style="color: gray; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','serif'; font-size: 19px;">Revenge <span style="color: gray; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','serif';"> Revenge is usually a motive for the crime especially when it is a violent crime. ** ** <span style="color: gray; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','serif'; font-size: 19px;">Male police <span style="color: gray; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','serif';"> Men usually play the role of the detective in the film, they are usually very masculine and decent looking. **

<span style="color: gray; display: block; font-family: impact,sans-serif; font-size: 96px; text-align: left;">narrative structure. <span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: 'palatino linotype','book antiqua',palatino,serif; font-size: 130%; text-align: center;">**As there are a wealth of sub genres for the crime thriller genre, it is hard to have a narrative structure that incorporates all of these genres. So I have decided to give the narrative structure for the sub-genre that the film I will be creating - which is the caper.**

<span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 120%;">**THE STATE BEFORE OR AFTER THE CRIME** **<span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;">The film usally begins with scenes prior of after the crime. If it is before it gives an insight into what may have casued the culprit to commit the crime. It allows the audience to understand the character and their enviroment, this could be a device used so that the audience relates and sympathises with the criminal. If the scenes shown are of that after the crime, it may be that the director wants the audience to see how the characters have been affected to the crime. ** <span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 140%;">**FLASHBACK** ** <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 120%;">Flashbacks are a device used to flashback to the crime, these are used most effectively in the caper genre as they allow the audience to understand the character <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; line-height: 23px;">psychologically <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 120%;">. **<span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 140%; line-height: 23px;">**THE EMOTIONAL DILEMMA** **<span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 120%; line-height: 23px;">The central character then has to choose between justice and relationship loyalty. ****<span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 120%; line-height: 23px;"><span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 130%; line-height: 23px;">CONCLUSION The truth finally comes out, leaving someone, most usually the central character, hurt. **

<span style="color: gray; display: block; font-family: impact,sans-serif; font-size: 24px; text-align: center;">synopsis. **<span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">A young east-Londoner (Tola) has the ability to relive peoples memories, experiences her brother's, Emmanuel, memories. There has been a local murder and her ability allows her to realise that her brother is infact the murderer. She is then torn between justice, and family love. **

<span style="color: gray; display: block; font-family: impact,sans-serif; font-size: 24px; text-align: center;">characterisation. **<span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">Tola will be a sixth-form student, she will fit the stereotype of the socially awkward teenager; as her abilty makes her feel out of place and different. Emmanuel, will be a year 11 student who feels he has little control over his life both at home and in his social life. He is attracted to a local gang as it is the first place he feels he truly belongs and has a voice, because this is the way he sees the gang he is easily led astray by them. The two detectives working on the case are quite different in the way that DC Newman wants to solve the murder because she really wants justice to be served. DC Scott however, does not really care about the case as he sees it as another case of black on black crime. **

<span style="color: gray; display: block; font-family: impact,sans-serif; font-size: 24px; text-align: center;">mise-en-scene/visual motifs. <span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">** Police iconography such as sirens, police badges and police tape will be used. We will use classrooms, street corners and a home for some of the scenes. As this film has concepts of urban drama within it, shots of street names will be included. As this film has a supernatural element of time travel, cutaways of clocks will be used. As this is quite a dark narrative, we have decided that most of the scenes will be in the evening so will be lit by street-lighting or lighting practicals. Low chiaroscuro lighting will be used when Tola relives her memory. **

<span style="color: gray; display: block; font-family: impact,sans-serif; font-size: 24px; text-align: center;">cinematography/photography. **<span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">A number of shots will be used to create a successful narrative of the film. POV shots will be used to allow the reader to fully experience what Tola does when she relives her brothers memories. We plan to make this harrowing and disturbing so that tha audience sympathise with Tola and understand why she wishes she did not have this ability. Over the shoulder shots and shot-reverse-shots will be used to deliver the dialogue during the trailer. Close-ups of the four main characters will be included to help the audience analyse what the character is feeling at that moment. Tracking shots will be used prominently with the siblings to create a sense that they are being watched and followed. **

<span style="color: gray; display: block; font-family: impact,sans-serif; font-size: 24px; text-align: center;">unique selling point. **<span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">Our film is a police crime thriller but also incorporates the urban drama genre - as well as this, there is a psychological theme within the film. We also have a female as the lead protagonist. ** <span style="color: gray; display: block; font-family: impact,sans-serif; font-size: 24px; text-align: center;">film influences. <span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">** Kidulthood, Adulthood, The Gift and Attack the Block. **

<span style="color: #808080; font-family: Impact,sans-serif; font-size: 85px;">audience research survey : results and analysis.

**<span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 20px;">A great percentage of the people surveyed were between the ages 17-18 this would narrow the results I would get. However I chose to select people mainly in this age range as it is the target audience for AGAIN. **

<span style="color: #808080; font-family: impact,charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 20px;"><span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 20px;">**More females answered the questions within my survey which could lead to a bias result but as the questions included do not reference sex/gender, I do not think this imbalance affects the results.**

<span style="color: #808080; font-family: impact,charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 20px;">

<span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 20px; text-align: left;">**The result of this question was successful as 80% of people did like the police crime thriller genre. If most were to say no, the results of the survey would not be very useful as the target audience for this film are people who like the genre.**

<span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: impact,charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 20px; text-align: left;">

<span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: impact,charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 20px; text-align: left;">**<span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 20px;">Most people surveyed had watched films of this genre 4-6 times. I think this is a good number for the people to know their preferences within a police crime thriller film. **

<span style="color: #808080; font-family: impact,charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 20px;">

<span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;">** From the results of this question, I now understand that the trailer is a fundamental element in successfully publicising a film. **

<span style="color: #808080; font-family: impact,charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 20px;">

<span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;">** From this question I understand that the character development and background are an essential element to include within the trailer. As well as this the action has to be included, to give the audience a taste of the tone of film. ** <span style="color: #808080; font-family: impact,charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 20px;">

<span style="color: #808080; font-family: impact,charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 20px;">
 * <span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 20px;">This question has an explicit link to the narrative of AGAIN. The result was in favour of the psycological element which is very pleasing. **

<span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 20px;">**80% of those asked said that the soundtrack used attracts them to a film. As AGAIN's target audience are young adults the music would have to be quite current and relevant.**

<span style="color: #808080; font-family: impact,charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 20px;">

<span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 20px;">**The results of this question contradicted what I assumed. When I asked a particular person why they thought a dub step soundtrack would not be appropriate, they said 'if the narrative is going to be focused on the police, then that type of music is quite a mis-match'. However after I explained that the main focus will be on the character Tola's choice, they agreed that yes, dub-step would be suitable.**

<span style="color: #808080; font-family: impact,charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 20px;">

<span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 20px;">**The chosen title for the film proved to be a good choice.**

<span style="color: gray; font-family: Impact,sans-serif; font-size: 80pt;">font experiments. <span style="color: gray; font-family: Impact,sans-serif; font-size: 80pt;"> <span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 15pt; text-align: center;">**I decided to choose bold fonts that also had an element of fading or incompleteness - to convey the idea that it is just memories she relives and the uncertainty that comes with it. I also wanted to experiment with styles that reflected handwriting as the protagonist's abilities are personal and she is quite an inward person.** <span style="color: gray; font-family: Impact,sans-serif; font-size: 80pt;">colour experiments.



<span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: left;">**Colour is an important element** <span style="color: #808080; display: block; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: left;">on posters and magazines. As different colours imply different things, designers have to be careful as to which colours are used. Within the police crime thriller genre darker colours are used to connote mystery.
