AS Media main task

Task 1
opening sequences- The state within- television drama
Highlighting conventions- codes that you would expect to see in a given text
  • visual
  • Auditory
  • Written
  • Written titles- crew details, Actors names
  • characters Established

ionic monuments

flags-union jack, American flag

Road signs

props (yellow cabs) mese-en scene

Plot

making of a bomb- Target ?

secret handover- undercover? criminals?

challenge to be overcome

Characters

protagonist (lead person)

Titles

on it's own for the title of the movie

crew and cast titles are shown over the action

? narrative enigma

The Italian Job

The location is established through iconic images. we automatically know the location is set in Venice. The images shown are gondoliers, rivers, architecture and buildings.

Plot

a plan is being made by drawings.

Robbery?

Hot Fuzz

the sound starts before visual images

opening is calm, calm music

effective lighting

we also get a full idea of the characters background

Location

is established through auditory code.

mese en scene- uniform/clothing reinforces uniform

we have established part of the plot by the audience knowing so much about the protagonist, so the film is likely to be about him and his life.
