L/o:to analyse a media text using media language
this shot type was used to give us a clear view of of his clothing, body position , facial expression and if he is holding anything like for example the gun in his hand -it also makes the viewer question as to why he is dressed like that and why he looks so serious (possibly might make the viewer want to watch the movie)
. his clothing connote he is an agent or doing something risky
. his weapon (gun) can suggest he is doing some dangerous , violent and risky as you don't need a gun for day to day activities
. his facial expression can connote he is a serious character with cruel intents he is angry? mean or just a grumpy character-he isnt playing around and he seems to be respected as he is holding his head high , a very confident pose
. the background is gold which connotes he is wealthy ? or stealing money hence why he is holding a gun and in a spy/agent like outfit it can connote he is a higher class or a very classy man .
Diegetic sounds -car speeding across the town , explosions , voices ,car doors slamming ,guns going off , tire screeching
the explosions where kept in to add a dramatic effect to share with the viewer the intensity of the scene
the tire's screeching can be kept in to add the effect that the characters are in a rush to flee somewhere or are being chased to make the viewer understand the action i the movie and to understand the plot more all the other sounds involved all has the same effect to ad dramatic intensity
fade to black - used to add the effect of time changing and scene changing - cutting between clips /scenes
near the end the dramatic effect is added by the clips speeding up and a montage of explosions cars screeching is added to make the end of the trailer more eye catching .

1 thing from the trailer: fade to black is used when changing to scenes -to show time passing or the scenes changing
sound effect - (diegetic sounds )the gun sounds ,trains moving , cars crashing is used to add intensity to the trailer -music changed along with the scenes so if its dramatic it will get faster /louder if its a calm scene the music will go quiet .
sound track (Dune trailer):
start- very soft music but as the trailer progress into more intense scenes the music gets louder and adds sharp drumming sounds it has added diegetic sound of swords and movement to it helicopters to add to the genre of action
the music adds a dramatic effect of going along with the trailer and following the intensity helps to show us that the genre is action/fiction with all the tense sounds within the fighting scenes all the different elements within the music helps show with us all the different things along the trailer
mise-en-scene (Dune trailor):
facial expression ; most of the characters seem to be very serious or angry and there is a lot of fighting in the trailer
costume : they had a wide variety of costumes but it mostly consisted of masked people armour and cloaked suits
background: the background shows a lot of aftermath within war and a lot of futuristic details within
the land its also got a very dark colour scheme
props: it has a wide range of props within the trailer like flying ships swords helicopters
font : has a very gold rich vibe towards it
paragraph 1:
In the Dune trailer , sound track is used effectively to add intensity for example throughout the trailer the directer uses a soft calm sound in the beginning but as the trailer progresses it get louder within the fighting scenes to give an intense effect and make the viewer more intrigued . from that it can be evident that the genre is an action as the music can help exspress
paragraph 2 :
In the Dune trailer miss-en-scene is used effectively to give the viewer a sense of the genre /movie in general for example throughout the trailer there is a rang of props , costume , facial expressions and body language .The director uses this to give the audience a view of what the genre is where the movie is set and what goes on throughout all the scenes giving them a clear view of the intensity without spoiling the movie . This trailer can also emphasise that there is a lot of war due to all the mise-en-scene used throughout , because of this the audience can connote that it is a fiction & action movie from everything used which can gain popularity to the movie Dune !
individual analysis -conjuring 2:
camera work :in the trailer they use a variety of angles like long shots close up to show the character doing an action like picking something up ect
soundtrack : whoever they used jump scares or intense moment the sound would play sharp note or sounds to add to the jump scare / horror effect
editing : fade to black was used throughout the whole trailer or a montage or clips were

continuing conjuring paragraph
soundtrack: Throughout the trailer there were pauses to add suspence and make the audience wondering to what is to happen next and the depending on the scene a loud sound was used to add to a jump scare and during the end church / quire music was being played to add to a nun spin off theme as the movie involves a dead nun .
camera work 2: they use a variety of camera angles but ones they used frequently was close ups to share the characters emotions ad they used a following effect so where ever the character moved the camera moved with them , this could possibly be the monsters point of view . They also use a characters point of view for example when Janet (the daughter /main character ) is stuck in a room with the ghost /entity the audience sees the mothers point of view
mise-en-scene - they have given the effect of a very poor/suffering house hold with damaged walls and floors and clothing : warn out hand me downs and very thin materials . The effect of this all shows that it is within a 70-80's time period as everything seems to be old like the old tv and how cameras seem to be glitchy as if there isnt any good quality service\internet yet
editing : they have used
Excellent first analysis Scarlett!
