We used common camera shots from real soap operas like close-ups to convey emotion and medium shots to show characters and scenes while revealing some but not too many details. Over-the-shoulder shots placed the audience in the scene and revealed location and feelings. In contrast to other media, our trailer lacked background music to create emotion and used different shot compositions than typical products. The document discusses how the media product incorporates conventions from real soap operas but also deviates from other existing media through unique technical elements.Photos
