Evaluation Task 1

The Title Of The Film

Our chosen title is called Pursuit because it

references to the main sequences of our product which is the chase scenes. It is also fitted into our character options and gives our audience a taste of why this short stylish title.  

Story + How the opening is set up
The story is broken down into 3 sections. First
being The Break In, a jump right in fast past
scenes to capture the
audiences attention, Then the main chase
a section of scenes to build up to a climax
and show twists of tension,Then the Hook
a ending based on leaving the audiences wanting
to know more.
Setting and Location
We chose to use 2 main mise en scene setting's as to set our product first being all mid-shots of the scenes through out the
house to show illegal activity and then out to
 its back garden as a lead into the forest, then
 a open tree space through POV and long to
mid-shots to show a kind of hiding spot of
sort to keep our audience on edge to see what
happens next then to a long shot of chase scene
to show a build up to the climax and then onto
a close up of match on action arrest on out skirts
of forest then a cut to the small interrogation
ending through an over the shoulder shot.


Creating The Enigma?
At the end we leave the audiences questioning
what has happened? why did the chase scene
take place? who is the stranger in black?
and leaving them wanting to find out more
about this franchise we did this by using more
of the music and at the end have the first bit
of speech used to draw them in wanting a
depth of characterisation.


Costume and Props
Through out the product we have chosen
to use a full on black jump suit with balaclava
for the criminal to make him appear anonymous
to our audience which is a use of mystery to the
story and character development. And we used
more of a formal slightly dark dress code
through the detective's cloths form he wears
a shirt and tie along with black trousers and
smart but runnable foot ware we did this to
show he is able to work in the field and comes
across as dark in look but busts of bright
character through facial expressions.
And the interrogator the same.
plus the only prop used was a folder to
represent order when slammed down.

Genre and How the opening show it
The Genre is Crime/Action/Thriller.
Crime due to the breaking into the house and
running from something giving
the idea of cops and robbers, and Action
because of the dramatics used within the first
three frames in the way the criminal is trying
to move as fast as possible, and Thriller due
to the mystery appearance of the criminal
in all black and you cannot see his face leaving
audiences wanting to know more.
How character are introduced 
The masked man is shown instantly as
a criminal as he has just kicked in someone's
door and is clearly not seen as the good guy
other wise why hide his face. The Detective
is shown hot on his tracks through coping his
hop the fence scene and shows he is hot on his
trail. And at the end the interrogator is shown
as the only character to use speech and
is the one who directs the Hook to our
audience.

Camera work and Editing
Through out the scenes in  our product we used
a variety of shots (mise en scene- close up-
over the shoulder- mid shot- two shot- long
shot) and some camera angles such as low
angle when climbing the tree representing the
criminal rising above the law and high angle
looking down showing the criminal has more
power/advantage over the detective. also the
edits are as smooth and Sharpe (as possible)
to show the tension in the chase scenes and
ends with a fade and brings up the title from
far away to fill up the screen. And the begging
production name starts with a flash as drawing
viewers in then a rotating edit of our production
name appears then fades along with bubble
sparks. Another edit used was the music
coming in at right points such as the  the
falling out the trees leading onto the climax
and an fade out of music to be a calm
ending at the end not an instant stop.

Title Font and Style
The style is Bold and Gapped this shows
a short of prison and crime based theme this
allows our audience to picture what the film
is about, and we chose black and white as
a symbol of stereotypes plus it also includes
the idea of what is Society? to our Audience.
