  1. Evaluation Question 1 In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

  2. Narrative In the film opening you see a young girl running and looking back, as if she is running away from or towards something and that she doesn’t want to be followed. A second girl (on the phone) is asking where she is and saying that she is missing. This creates questions of which she is doing, running towards or away? Unanswered questions builds tension for the viewer which in turn can lead to fear.

  3. Character Within the opening only two characters are shown. The main character is seen running and in distress. We see the first character being very cautious about her surroundings, this girl is shown as the weak and vulnerable character and may be a victim later only. The second girl speaks with a worried voice and is scared that her friend has gone missing. Her involvement could lead in any direction most dramatically; the heroin.

  4. Fonts & Titles Credits where done as subtlety as possible so that the viewer would see it but would not get distracted. Our font was ‘Akoom’ from dafont.com. We chose the title Requiem because of the meaning – a mass to repose the souls of the dead.

  5. Location The location of our shoot was originally in Papworth but due to delayed response from the owners. After that we started look with great haste and found the building we now used in the footage located in Longstanton. The building is run down and abandoned. The establishing shots of the building is meant to give the viewer an eerie feeling, the building is supposed to come across as a bad place.

  6. Sub-genre The sub-genre of the thriller film is crime. However, if you watch the opening without knowing the sub-genre you wouldn’t be able to figure it out. Knowing the sub-genre everything makes sense. The creepy abandoned, the running, the worrying friend it all builds up to a conventional thriller.

  7. Techniques The camera angles where simple but affects where quite good. We blurred the camera when we took a shot of the young girl at a distance to give a sense of nobody noticing her leaving. The first shot is a close of the girls face which is only quick. One of the best shots is the silhouette of the girl making the big jump down into the building from a window.
