This document outlines the key codes and conventions of documentaries according to documentary maker John Corner. It identifies the 5 central elements of documentaries as observation, interview, dramatization, mise en scene, and exposition. Observation and interviews are the primary techniques used to gather information and support arguments. Dramatization, mise en scene, and exposition are employed to construct reality and reveal the documentary's topic or argument. Additionally, documentaries rely on narrative conventions including a beginning, middle, and end, focus on conflict, and use of music to engage audiences.Breadline kids

This documentary focuses on children living in poverty in the UK. It uses a mix of narration, interviews, and observational footage. The main themes are poverty, childhood, food/hunger, wealth, health, and family. The documentary has an open structure as it follows families in poverty over time without a clear resolution. Camera work includes mid and mid-closeup shots in interviews to identify faces and show context. Observational footage uses a handheld camera for realism. Locations like kitchens and bedrooms are used for mise-en-scene based on their relevance. Diegetic sound includes interviews while non-diegetic narration drives the narrative. Editing uses cutaways and sound bridging between clips andVoting for symbols

The document summarizes feedback from test audiences on the first draft of a film trailer. The audiences felt that the trailer met genre conventions by using exciting clips and shots to engage viewers while revealing just enough of the plot. They also found the trailer's use of camera angles, sound, editing, and mise-en-scene to be conventional and effective at building tension. However, some improvements were suggested, such as varying the locations of certain scenes and adding more chase sequences. Based on this feedback, the creator plans to re-film some scenes in new locations and include additional chase scenes.Scavenger hunt

The summary provides feedback that the camera was still during the interview and cutaways used different lengths, but some areas need improvement like steadier cutaways, avoiding backlighting, including more shot varieties during the interview, and using a tripod.Filming ‘its good to talk’

The document compares magazine front covers for Empire and Total Film magazines. Both magazines place the masthead in the same location behind the main picture. Total Film has more layers and characters in the main picture compared to Empire, which focuses on one main image and smaller additional pictures. While the color schemes relate to the featured films or characters, Empire has more layers and an interesting background that makes it look more visually appealing compared to the plainer design of Total Film.Analysis of ‘Snow White and the Huntsman’

Some other sub-genres of horror include nature horror which features nature running amok through mutated beasts or carnivorous insects; psychological horror which relies on characters' fears and instability to build tension; and zombie films which feature reanimated corpses or mindless humans. Slasher films often revolve around a psychopathic killer stalking and killing victims with blades, and body horror derives horror from graphic destruction or mutation of the human body.Narrative theorey4
