•Film plot
•What is the story about? what happens in the film? Genre?
•The genre of this
film is drama based as it follows the youths of today’s society’s highs and
lows. The story is about teenagers and young adults of this generation that are
both wild and reckless simply because they party, go clubbing and take illegal
drug substances. Hence the audience will get to see the actors, enjoying the
“high” of drinking alcohol and taking drugs. Due to the explicit content of the
film the target audience will be aimed at the age 15 and over, the reason for
this is that the audience would be able to understand as well as sympathises
with the characters and actors on screen.
•Location: Filmed at public clubs and pubs as
well as local train stations. We done this to keep the feel of teenage
behaviour are around everywhere.
Setting:
The location of the
film takes place in a club and pub, to help give the we also made reference to a train scene as
the audience are aware that the teenagers have to get to their desired
destination by public transport, this again sticks to the social class of C2DE
as they are not fortunate enough to have cars. The film is a montage of moving images, of teenagers in
a night club and pub that are
highlighted with flashing lights layered over it with a boy taking illegal
drugs. This can suggest the cycle in which the teenagers are on, as to the
ending of the young boy lighting up a cigarette.
Chiaroscuro in art
is the use of strong contrasts between light and dark, which was evident in the
film. To be specific, chiaroscuro is present when the actor (in a close up and
extreme close up) is rolling up the illegal substance. Contrast to the other
scenes in the film where natural lighting is present as well as the bright
vibrant light.
Canted angles- used at that start of
the film, where the girl is with the metal spoon enticing the audience in my
attracting there focus
Low angles and high angle shot used to
create different levels in the movie , effective way, so that the audience does
not lose focus from what they are watching.
Medium shots- used a lot in the film to
see the characters facial expressions
and the background
Establishing shots- helped set the
scene, as the audience instantly knows the general theme of the film and the
location it is set in.
The “costume” in the film is modern as
it is set in the 21st century,
based around today’s generation of teenager’s thus casual day-to-day wear. The
costume consists of basic tops, trousers, jeans as well as limited prop usage
of spoons, lighters and drink.

Camera
Techniques: Fade
in and out will be used as a transition of each scene moving to the next one.
Handheld camera at different location such as Greenford but it is only shown for a short time this
adds to the audience confusion as to what is going on. A slow zoom in is used
to highlight the drugs in the first scene of the opening footage, this is
highlighted with house music layered on top of the footage to create the crazy
partying lifestyle. The song also makes reference to ‘fire burning’ which is
also shown when the teenager boy is lighting up a cigarette. Lighting is another element that is highly
used in the film opening as it helps to make the footage realistic and the
surroundings colourful. For example the Pub and club.
