Questionair

I also looked at the film American Gangster. This film opens with a establishing shot of the state it is set in then it starts to show the charictors. We dont find out the plot of the film only the genre. This is to keep the audience asking questions. The charictors are shown to us as the way they are during the rest of the film.

Phonebooth is a thriller film that i have looked at and it has inspired me to look at thriller films as a posibility.

Film

I have desided to do film even though i have analysed two magazines. We have came up with the Genre of hour film and its going to be a thriller.

I have analysed afew films such as firewall, DieHard 3, phonebooth and American Gangster.
I have noticed that in thriller / action films start with a establishing shot of where the film is set, the main charactor is shown and the storyline of the film / genre of the film is established.

Watch DieHard3 and look at start.

I have chosen to look at the difference's between Rap and Pop magazine covers. This is what i have noticed:

On a Rap magazine cover there is an angry looking man. This magazine cover has been photoshoped so that 'the game' and 50 Cent are mixed into one man. The genre of Rap is normaly linked to violence, sex, drugs and crime. This is expressed in the rap magazine, 50 cent and the game are both looking angry and the title underneath states: "Ultimate Fight?"
