Production Company Logo Analysis







The reasoning for our particular company logo is so that we have the opportunity to represent the idea of a crime thriller to our audience. In order to achieve this we used the outline of a detective and a flashing light over him in order to create the sense of crime and investigation. We also added non diegetic sound of bars being slammed shut, thus further pushing our idea and concept of crime in the opening few seconds. However the darkness in our production logo also hints towards mystique and confusion in the opening

Production Company Analysis




If we analyse the logo opening for Warner Brothers in this case we are able to identify that the film is likely to either be of a dark or tense nature.   For example in the clip attached the use of dark clouds may indicate dark times and or a foreshadowing event which is likely to occur.

When considering foreshadowing events it is imperative that we consider the mise en scene of thriller films, thus which includes tension building and foreshadowing, both of which are shown in the crime thriller Training day.

So when creating our production logo we believed it was imperative that it would automatically give the audience an insight into the type of film in which they are about to view.

Costume Analysis - Saeed (Screening)












































With the character Saeed we have gone for a youthful ‘urban’ look. For example the character appears to be wearing blue Nike training which seem to be very popular among many teenagers in present times.
We as a group believe that this appearance will give our project the best project to present a youthful, urban on screen presence, that will contradict the presence of other characters involved within the project, who may appeal to an older audience (Detective Victor).
Our aim is to automatically give the audience a general stereotype of the character before they actually become aware of the actual subplot, with the possibility of reinforcing the audience’s stereotypes on certain groups.
We used the crime thriller ‘Training Day’ as inspiration for Saeed’s character. For example in the film the two main characters were hardly dressed in smart attire, so we followed suit by allowing one of our characters to fulfill this  role.
