Research: Holiday Homework (task 12)

Analysis of sub genre conventions

Audience research

The Inbetweeners 

The audience of The Inbetweeners Movie are similar to the actual characters in the movie, they are mainly males who are aged between 18-24 who described themselves as polite and sometimes nerdy

Mean Girls 

The personalities of the the main audience as well as the the age is not expected with Mean Girls as the women percieve themselves as kind and only sometimes being controlling and the age of them is 25-39, however we would have expected the audiencee to be young people aged 13 to about 19/20

Kidulthood

The audience of Kidulthood completely refutes the expected audience of the film. We would expect the audience to be males aged around 13 to 20, however it is females ages 18 to 24. The personalities of this audience is understandable, instead of seeing the hardcore violence these women would be more understanding of the characters. The shows that this audience watches has barely any link to the film, they watch things such as The O.C and Kate My Beautiful friends.

Reflection Post

Everything apart from the anaylsis of my audience research and my prezi is completed and up to date.

I need to improve on both my attendance and punctuality, as it is very poor and I am losing marks as a result to this.

I need to include other technologies such as thinglink, emaze, powtoon, slideshares/slides, kizoa, vlogs and gifs to improve my blog

To improve my grade, and attemp to pick up some of the marks that I've lost due to my attendance an punctuality, I will do all the extension blogs that have been provided.

Analysing Type of Title Sequence & Order - Task 7.

 21 Jump Street 
The title sequence for 21 jump street is interesting as they take it in a different approach, instead of doing the usual credit list, their one is backwards. So they start off with "The end" first then showing who it's directed by, usually a movie's title sequence always ends off with who it's directed by, however 21 jump street shows a reverse approach. 

Within the title sequence, we see mini clips and segments of what will be included in the film to give the viewers a sense of what will be in the movie and what it will be about. The title sequence includes flashy scenes and clips of different locations and backgrounds, as well as dominant and objects that will be featured in the movie, illustrating that this certain item will be an importance in the movie. 

Order in the title sequence - 

• The end
• directed by
• screen play by
• story by
• based on the television series created by
• produced by
• executive producers
• director of photography
• production designer
• editor
• main cast ( names of actors)
• casting by
• music by
• costume designer
