EVALUATION- In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

 

I feel like i have used different examples of real media products in 'The Hit' effectively, these include films such as 'Lock stock and two smoking barrels', Snatch' and 'Kill List'. I have used narration sequences and voice overs from my protagonist through out my foundation production. 'Snatch' and 'Lock stock' have inspired me to create my protagonist with a London accent, this is because after researching these two films I've noticed that this accent in the narration makes the movie flow, and i couldn't imagine this working with any other accent, it also makes it clear to the audience that this is a London gangster movie which i was partly trying to achieve. 'Kill List' has inspired me to create a 'Hitman trying to do good' type of film, and with combining all these films i thought it would add a gritty but clever effect on the movie overall.

I have used The Foley effect in the execution scene when Nazo knocks out the guard protecting the safe house.  Many action/thriller movies such as 'Kill Bill' and 'The Dark knight' use this effect to emphasize the power of the individual to maybe raise his status and to add an element of fear into the audience. And this is what i wanted, to make the audience fear Nazo.
