Evaluation questions
In the evaluation the following questions must be answered:

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

We have challenged the conventions of an espionage film by making the main terrorist a white person. this challenges the conventions of ethnic division. We have used a relevant genre for the time period that we live in which uses the usual conventions for a film like this. Furthermore, we have used a familiar location to people that would watch the film to connote that even our own communities would not be safe, challenging the conventions of espionage.

• How does your media product represent particular social groups?

We have decided to not segregate social groups in our product because we are trying to get the message out that it does not matter what you look like because everybody is the same and it will make people question who they think are the real enemy.

• What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

The UK company Metrodome would be able to distribute our film because it mainly produces low budget thriller films to be viewed by a niche market. Also a big company would want to take a look at it because the public are very interested in thriller espionages and so this could be a big hit if a big company picked it up and chose it.

• Who would be the audience for your media product?

Overall our video would contain a lot of realistic violence and so would be aimed at an adult market. Our film would need to contain violence to depict a relevant story and to keep the audience interested otherwise it would seem like there would never be a real motive in the whole of the film and therefore would not be very interesting to watch.

• How did you attract/address your audience?

We attracted and addressed the audience by using a variety of marketing skills to entice people to come and look at the film. For example we created lots of different posters that people would see o that the word would get spread around about this new up and coming film. We also would create a trailer for the film which would try and make it look as exciting as possible to get the audiences attention and make them think that it would be a good film to watch.

• What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

• Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?
