In what ways does your product, use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real films?

For our film, we specifically chose to look at a very particular audience group and that would be those who love action-based, dramtic films. Because of this, this obviously narrowed down the genres and types of films we could look at to get inspiration from. In addition, we wanted to capture the idea of getting the audience engaged by getting inspiration from films which engaghed us (James, Piers and myself). Due to this, only a few films captured our attention and therefore this made our devlopment and inspiration from films very limited.

We looked at the film introduction of James Bond's, Casino Royale. The chase scene in the film inspired us to look at the idea of a chase scene in the first place and so it's clear that we used this real life film to develop our ideas and motivation.

Moreover various different films caught our attention, but one in particular was the film Narc. The chase scene in the film inspired us to look at a dark and gloomy mise-en-scne and because if this, our final piece was edited to make the mise-en-scne look more dramatic by making the contrast and tones of the background similar to the background used in Narc. By doing so, our film was made to look gloomy and therefore more dramatic to the audience.
