1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

Our film genre is Action Comedy Thriller. We chose to add comedy so people wont be put off by thinking "its just another drug movie and they're all the same". As teenagers, we are often stereotyped for drugs and violence. We fulfilled that stereotype to show people what happens in modern days for teenagers.. etc. Instead of all that, we added a bit of comedy to make audiences feel interested and make them laugh. We also added comedy at the start so people would get really interested. Our film consists of drug lord (Victor) and his employees meeting up with local druggie in the area (John). They both have agreed to the drug sale on the phone of £5000, but when they meet up; Ramiel vows to pass over the drugs but the local druggie doesn't co-operate and runs off with the money and the drugs; leaving (Ramiel) stranded with NOTHING to give back to the Drug lord. 

Our film would fit in perfectly in the cinema industry because its mostly targets 15-21 year old who spend their disposable income to come and watch films at the cinemas. We picked 15-21 year olds because their age group is suitable for our film genre. This age group are usually looking for something enjoyable and will put them at the edge of their seats in the cinema. 

This short film of ours would be a short snap shot of like British films such as the series of Kidulthood +Adulthood which concentrates on British teenagers lives and the hardships they go through to get through life.In our short film we used certain props to show the authority of each person. For example, the drug lord (Victor) was dressed in a suit with a RED tie which indicated danger also to show his importance and authority over Ramiel. This shows he expects respect from everyone, Whereas his Ramiel is dressed in black and casual with his hood up to blend in with the certain surroundings this follows the gangster conventions of the film Dead man running which is set in the the UK is a gangster based film where an exchange of drug for money is a huge part of the film... Furthermore the key props in our short film are the bags which contain the drugs and the money these are very significant because this starts of the story of our short film. As many films such as 'Dead man running' contains typical key props of money, drugs, guns etc our film will perfectly fit in with no problem.
