This is a shot of milla johovich in the film resident evil. The shot used is a medium shot, the shot is a contrast. It shows the lead character in a rather feminen dress and a glamour like pose, while she is holding a huge assault rifle and a pistol which shows masculinity and power.

This is a shot from the film 28 weeks later. as you can see the figures are hiden in shadow which suggests mystery and an uneasyness about the shot. The lighting in the shot is used well as it shows clearly were the shot is ( a tunnel) yet still manages to hide the figures runing.

My Aims

As part of my AS Media Studies Coursework, I am going to film and edit my own opening to a thriller movie. This blog is to log my progress.

For my project, I'm going to make a zombie film that packs realism and scares my audience. I plan to research some existing zombie films by analysing certain movie clips and stills. I will then use this analysis to make my own film. I hope to learn more, both about producing films and the films themselves. I will be producing this movie for my coursework, and, fingers crossed, I will hopefully get my desired grade.
