Music Video Analysis "Tristiam and Braken-Flight"

This music video has no singers in it and no lyrics so it is basically a track for other people to use. This track is quite famous on Youtube as the song has 4.3 million views and the channel on Youtube who produced the song has 1.3 million subscribers and the song Flight is said to have been their biggest and best album yet also they almost produce a daily song for their subscribers. The song uses a lot of concept but no narrative or visual effects at all which got the song a lot of views. This song is used by Youtubers for an intro to their videos and even the more famous Youtubers such as Videogames, Ali-A and TheSyndicateProject etc which gets the song more views and more subscribers. The concept used in this is the wide range of tones and melodies. The way the artists made the track is by making parts of the song fast pace for a bit of time than slow pace after that than make it fast pace. Also in the beginning of the track they don't play the song for 2 seconds then they start of the song quietly but gets gradually louder and louder, up to level of sound they want it to be. Another concept of this track is that quieten and make the track louder to make the whole track flow all in one go so there's not a very long pause in the middle. The song is made like this because in a dubstep track there are hardly any pauses.

Film Pitch for Assignment 2

A man hungry for blood goes looking for the man who destroyed his family and life. He is The Hunter. The genre for this film is a Action-Adventure film which may contain a few scenes of violence and blood. This movie is quite similar to the Terminator as the Terminator sent from the future is here to terminate one person. My target audience is for people who love action-adventure movies and the age range for the movie is 12-37 and more males will watch my movie more than females. The main characters of this movie is Veerhain Keesoony and Emman Chaudhry who makes good videos on youtube and is a very good actor.

In the movie there will be a flash back of when The Hunter was still a little boy of the age of 5 and how he sees a guy walking out of his house in flames with dead bodies everywhere of his family but leave him alone and the flash back finishes. The guy who slaughtered his family is dead but has a son who is The Hunter's next target to get revenge.

Men: Good drivers, brave, no fear, on the wrong side of the law,

Women: Love interest, show girls,

Foreign people/un-american: Villain, partner, sidekick, henchmen, police force,

American: Only 1 or 2 people, like brothers, loyalty, never back down, follow their ambitions, go over their limits.

Propp:
Protagonist because Dominic and Brian has to find out the mystery of how letty died,
Antagonist because there has to be a evil mastermind but in this case a drugs smuggler who killed a girl precious to both Dominic and Brian, helper is close to Dominic to help solve the mystery of who killed letty by giving support and clues to the heroes, heroine is the relief of killing the person who killed letty in order to bring justice to them, donor is also the helper in this movie as she falls in love with dominic and wants to bring justice to the antagonist as he tries to kill her.

enigma codes: why are they in a new country? Why are they still against each other? Why did Brian say "she is my friend to? Why was he chasing the guy?
action codes: changing his gear, the gasoline tank rolling down in flames, chasing the guy through various places.
Action codes: they shifted the gear to go faster, they chased a guy, dominic was holding something upside down outside a window, his car turned, his car accelerated, he shit his gun.

Film idea

The name of my movie trailer is "Hunter." The genre for my film trailer is action and will be set in a open/public area. My film will contain one or two chase scenes and maybe a fighting scene depending on how long the chase scene maybe. The actors I will want to use are Oumar Ahmed, Emman Chauhdry, Miran Garib and Adam Iqbal. The narrative will be done by Oumar Ahmed as he has a deep voice which will work well with my movie trailer.

The storyline for my movie trailer is going to be about a man being hunted down for the massive bounty on him and only one man will stop at nothing to get it. The hunter is going to be played by Oumar while the man with the bounty is going to be played by me and Emman is going to be the person who helps me escape as he will be like my brother, the cameraman will be Miran but will be in some scenes of the trailer. Adam will be the guy who helps the Hunter find the hunted as he is his partner.

log line: "In a small quiet town named Greenford, a infamous man called the Hunter will stop at nothing to claim the prize he wants and never failed to miss one, the hunted is going to be hunted.

Film pitch: In this quiet town the hunted is seeking refuge here until the Hunter finds/knows of his location and will have to keep on running past obstacles and a range of other things for him not be hunted and killed. The hunted will have a plan of action to keep the Hunter away and keep his location discreet with his partner who is also his brother, to stay alive until the Hunter is long gone. The hunted's main plan of action to keep away from the infamous Hunter, is to go to deserted or small towns or villages to make sure he keeps his brother safe as well as himself. The hunted will always have limited supplies and with no money he can only survive by stealing food and drinks to keep up their energy at any time and any place. While the Hunter can get all the supplies due to his reputation and can seek help even from the darkest of places to find the location of the hunted.


Photo shoot will  be at in a field or park, on the road and in a empty area such as a alley way or some sort of dark and gloomy place so we'll have the hunted look like he is running and a collage of all three place in the background to show where some of the man settings are. Also we'll have the Hunters head/face in the background to show how big and mighty he is which has also been used in the Star Wars Episode 1 The Phantom Menace as Darth Maul who was the main villain's face was in he background.

Film trailer and poster analyse

The trailer I used is for the new movie The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug. the key conventions used in the trailer is the music (dramatic/orchestral), at the beginning of the trailer the cut scenes were quite slow to fit in with the music and later on the video the cut scenes got quicker and so did the music so they both set the mood of the trailer.
They also used some of the main characters voice as a voice over to fit in with the trailer clip.
They use text in the trailer to show the release date, to show what movies the directors did before and also the production blurb at the end.
The iconography used here are dwarves, a hobbit, a dragon, gold, a wizard, elves, fire, explosions, a mountain, orks, goblins, swords, bows and arrows, a ring and spiders.






The key conventions used in the film poster for the movie The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug are the production blurb at the bottom with all the stars and actors. The release date is just underneath the production blurb with the list of ways you are allowed to watch it by and finally the list of companies at the bottom of that.
The colour scheme used in this film poster is that there is dark, evil colours on the left and bright, harmonious colours on the right. It also looks like 'Gandalf' aka the wizard

Movie Trailer analyse


This link is for the new movie The Hobbit: The desolation of Smaug. The genre for this movie is science-fiction, action-adventure so this movie is kind of a hybrid as there is more than one genre in this movie. I can tell this by the movie containing a wizard, a hobbit, elves, dwarves, orks a dragon. This movie also has violent scenes as there are axes, swords and bow and arrows. It also contains that the hobbit and the dwarves are travelling different realms/regions to get back the dwarves home with a dragon in there.


This link is for the new movie The Lego Movie. The genre for this movie is comedy, action-adventure so this movie is also like a hybrid because there is more than one genre in this movie. I know this by the movie containing lego toys as real people, jokes in this movie and a hero and villain. This movie also contains famous lego icons such as batman, superman, wonderwomen, ninjago etc etc. The movie also has a famous actor as one of the main characters which is Morgan Freeman as an old wizard.



The link above is for the trailer Rush Hour 3. The genre for this movie is comedy, romance and action. I know this by the movie containing guns, a girl as one of the main characters, Jackie Chan with his mastery in Kung-Fu and Chris Tucker with his jokes. In this movie we will be able to know about Jackie Chan’s past and if he had any family.
