QUESTION ONE: How did you USE, DEVELOP or CHALLENGE existing codes and conventions?


1. How have you USED, DEVELOPED or CHALLENGED existing codes and conventions?

  • Mise en scene
    • Locations, props, costumes, lighting: are they similar to those used in the real product?
  • Editing
    • Does pace of editing match the beat of the music?
    • Is there a cutaway shot? Does it effectively illustrate what is being spoken about by another character?
    • Eyelines match? Can the audience tell who is speaking to each other and where they are positioned in the scene?
    • Are edits sharp? Does dialogue flow?
  • Sound
    • do the score and lyrics make events in the trailer clearer?
    • Is all dialogue clear?
    • Does non- diegetic sound match or change the tone of the trailer?
  • Camerawork
    • Variety of shot distances and heights used?
    • Depth of field used effectively? (items/characters at different distances)
    • BCUs to create tension and show character's emotions
    • Any camera movement? Tracking, panning, zooms.
