Case Study #2

12D (for HW for Mon 11/3)...

1. Visit the IMDB and Wikipedia pages for your film.

On your blog, write an outline of your second film text (American, bigger budget, more mainstream than 'Ill Manors') to include...


Director, Producer, Starring, Production/Distribution Companies, Release Date(s) including Home Media, etc., Running Time, Budget, Box Office takings, Certificate.

2. Watch your film (even if you've already seen it before) and include details about the following...

Plot/Narrative, Characters/Representations, Settings, Critical Response (read some reviews), Genre Conventions, Media Language (Cinematography, Editing, Mise en Scene – CLAMPS, Sound/Music).

3. What are the main similarities/differences between your new film and 'Ill Manors'?

4. Go to the official website of your film. Analyse it. What different features does it contain? How does it try to engage the audience?

5. Embed the official trailer on your blog. Analyse it. Consider the Media Language used and how it would appeal to audiences.
