1. EVALUATION
Question 1

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

3. Titles
We decided on Wire
Productions as we felt that
despite the wireless age
becoming more and more
prominent, wires are still very
important for the time being. We
couldn’t connect anything to a
computer without wires, so
we’ve decided to honour them
by using a wire as our main
picture. Its on a white-ish
background so that it stands out.

4. The title is Jeremy’s Boy as we felt
it leaves the audience intrigued as
to who “Jeremy’s Boy” is. We
chose to use red and white as the
colours as we felt red symbolises
blood and anger, and the white
purely because we wanted to
differentiate the colours and white
stood out better than black against
the red brick house. We did the
titles with the house as the
backdrop as the house in the main
location during the film, so
therefore it makes sense to use it.

5. Mise En Scene
During this scene, we placed the bench
in front of a fireplace as fireplaces can
be used to connote danger and harm.
The debris in the corners suggests that
the house used is abandoned, or not
taken very good care of.
Both of the “gangsters” are pictured
wearing suits or smart clothing. This
gives the impression that they are well
off, and sophisticated criminals.

6. Sound
During the first part of the clip we used a suspense building
soundtrack with a fast beat and rhythm. This is to give the
impression of danger, and that something is about to
happen. This quietens during the speech but still remains.
As the main gangster (blue shirt) goes to hit the hostage
with the golf club, there is a high pitched soundtrack which
increases in volume as he gets closer to hitting him. This is
also to create suspense and danger.

7. Camerawork
We used an establishing shot at the start of the film to show
where everything was taking place, and to help the
audience understand. We used a variety of camerawork
techniques during the film such as:
Close up: POV:
Shot/Reverse Shot:

8. Match on action:
Two shot:
