Evaluation 1 - Final Abyss
1. We used Final Abyss as our title. It is a generic title
within the Espionage Film Industry. Final Abyss
creates an excitement for the audience as it hints at
thrilling ending and storyline. This will capture the
attention of the audience and intrigue them to
watch the film. The use of only two words in our title
keeps it simple and memorable so that it wouldn't be
a name you would forget. We have used and
developed ideas from current social media products
to create an opening which we feel would engage
the audience and lead to further success for our film.
EVALUATION 1- TITLE
2. SETTING AND LOCATION
The setting and location we used was
specific to our genre and although we may
not have followed the current media
conventions as to having a remote island
etc. We have decided to use a remote area
with many warehouses to create the same
effect that current media products attempt
to achieve. We have used a warehouse
which is a large private space. This is the
typical venue for corrupt organisations and
we felt that it would be very well suited to
our espionage movie.
3. COSTUMES AND PROPS
In our opening we used many different props and costumes to emphasise the realism in our film
opening. The use of a black car where the driver cannot be seen encourages the audience to
believe the storyline, especially as the protagonist is a spy who does not want his identity to be
known. The use of the body suit for the worker presents him with a very stereotypical illegal worker
as they are all dressed the same, made to do the same thing and he has no identity. He is just
another obstacle in Zack's path. The use of the warehouse equipment convince the audience
that this scene is real, and the more realistic the warehouse looks the more convincing the
opening is.
4. CAMERA WORK AND EDITING
Whilst filming and editing the footage, we
decided to make various decisions that would
enhance our film opening to further engage
the audience and add to the realism of the
film. We use a CCTV shot here in the
warehouse to show the small fight scene. This
emphasises our espionage genre as it seems
that the footage has been taken from a CCTV
camera as secret footage. It allows the
audience to believe that they have an insight
into what has actually gone on as a secret
camera has filmed this footage. The fact that
it wasn't manually filmed also adds to the
mysteriousness of the espionage movie and
emphasises the secrecy of the protagonist.
We used a birds eye view to create a discreet
angle as if the two characters didn't know
they were being filmed as well as creating a
diversity in shots which makes the film opening
5. STORY AND HOW THE OPENING SUGGESTS IT
The opening story conveys many mysterious aspects
of this film opening, causing the audience to ask
questions. Who is he killing? Why does he want him
dead. Who is he? Our opening allows the audience
to understand the genre of the film and the storyline
whilst leaving out vital information. It is clear that a
young male who is a spy has entered a warehouse
after leaving his mysterious black car, and he has
knocked out one of the workmen and gone on to kill
the boss. We have shown that there will be action
within the movie and that there is an intriguing
storyline as something has clearly happened to
trigger his anger. Resulting in the assassination of the
mystery man at the end. Our aim was to leave the
audience asking questions and wanting to find them
out.
6. GENRE AND HOW THE STORY OPENING SUGGESTS IT
• The opening of our movie suggests that it is a
movie of the espionage genre. The mystery
throughout the opening supports this as we do
not know who anyone is or why anything is
happening. This compliments the traditional
spy archetype as they want to be
unidentifiable. The use of props encourage
the audience to see our film in that genre, as
guns are used and it is based in a typical
warehouse, this emphasises secrecy and
action beyond the law. Another very
important method that we used to help the
audience identify the genre was the stance
that our protagonist moved in. He was
crouched low with bent knees, attempting to
make as little sound as possible. This implies he
wants to be stealthy and does not want to be
seen. Spies tend to follow all the rules that
have been demonstrated in our film opening
and this further suggests the genre of our film.
7. HOW CHARACTERS ARE INTRODUCED
Three characters are introduced in our film opening. None of them
have been named in our opening as no speech was used. This
impacted how the characters are introduced as they all lack identities
to the public. The first character we see is our protagonist Zack. He is
seen getting out of a mysterious black car and sneaking into a
warehouse. This causes him to seem mysterious. We then follow him
through the warehouse until we see a worker. The worker is dressed in
a full white body suit in a warehouse. We immediately get the idea
that he works for ‘the bad guy’. As soon as he sees Zack, he attempts
to fight him which further demonstrates his illegal activity. We then
watch Zack knock him out and we understand that Zack is skilled in
combat and that he does this frequently as he does not seem phased
at all. Zack then proceeds upstairs into the office where he encounters
the boss. He has his gun out and as we can understand that Zack is
‘the good guy’ which is further emphasised by his clothing style which
is typical for a young male. We can assume that this mystery man
who’s face is not revealed is ‘the bad guy’. The final thing which we
can understand about the characters is that they seem to know each
other as Zack seems to have trouble pulling the trigger and you can
see it in his eyes at the final shot of a close up on his face.
