Practical Production Ideas

- I will be reconstructing the opening sequence of a typical Hollywood film, conveying the codes and conventions to portray the sequence correctly.
- I will replace the stereotypical role of the white male with an South Asian male.
- I will look into the action and drama genres for Hollywood films One text i will look at will be the James Bond franchise. As it is a very popular action franchise, which i could look at to immitate.
- the basic conventions of camera paning, and wide variety of shots around the car.
- The use of a car is very typicial and the variety of shots while the car is in motion can be very powerful.
- the opening of the trunk, and the specificity of his dialect which is precise and powerful.
- the accent is also a powerfull element.
- also the use of grey and white to make it seem more classicall than it is.

- Along with the conventions that are displayed in the 1st video, there is the use of mystery created by the annonymous character who is walking into a building at night, wearing black leather gloves and an overcoat. also the camera angles and use of shots to higlight certain objects such as the gun.
The camera angles also are used in relation to the lighting to give it more effect by showing james bond in the shadow at 1st. Looking at other films such as Law abiding citizen, there is violence and drama immiedatly into the film wanted taken
