Evaluation

In what way does does the product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real products? my product which is Delirium challenges real products thorugh the use of different camera shots which were used through out the 2 minute clip which makes it seem more interesting. My product used the following different basic shots: Close ups, Mid- shots and  Far range shots. These shots helped my product to be imaged as a real product.
Also the  story line can challenge real film products as it shows a steady story line which is a crime thriller.

How does the product represent particular social groups?
the product which is the film clip of Delirium represents particular social groups in a steriotypical manner. As the two main characters of Delirium are detectives one of who has his own seperate problems he is portraid as a more stressed out detetctive. this is shown in our product from they way the character is dressed and presents his self.

What kind of media institution might distribute my product and why?
New line cinema films would be most likely to distribute Delirium as its an independant film from the UK. Also our film will be an Action/Thriller which has an original story line which would be appealing to New line cinema Films. Delirium shares a similar story line as the popular 8.7 star out of 10 film Se7en which was distribued by New line cinema and was very successful in the release of the film as it was popular and well liked film from its original story line.

Who would be the audience to the product?
The product Delirium is a crime thriller which will target a specific audience on their demographics which is Age, Sex and preferences. The film will be targeted to a more mature group as this film consist of invetigation and thriller and it will be more appealing to an older group.

during the making of this product i have learnt a great deal of technolgies, filming and team work.

Treatment

Treatment looks at what our product is going to look like and will provide the audience with an overview. It will also explain why the product will look like this and why we have decided to use these techniques to give off the effect
 
The film is called ‘Delirium’. It starts off with the opening credits. Short editing showing clips from later on in the film giving the audience an idea of what’s going to happen. Dark, shadowy disturbing images of a person doing and planning disturbing things. A close up of blades scraping along each other, the screech of the blades as the slide along one another. Distorted images of people annotated and written up. Between each short clip the screen goes black, the sound of electricity to signal the cut. While the screen is black that’s when the credits are shown, then back to showing the audience what they want to see, those distorted images again. Once the opening credits have been shown, this should take roughly 1 ½ -2 mins. After this is when the real film starts. Our main detective who has been set on a case of severe blood shed leaves a house during the pouring rain and enters his car where his partner is waiting for him. The detective, ‘Detective Brown’, speaks telling his partner, ‘Detective Jackson’ that he ‘cannot enter that house again’. So our two main characters are introduced to the audience and in the conversation in the car, their personalities will show.

‘Delirium’ is based on two detectives who are investigating a serial killer who has a sick obsession with pregnant women, severely torturing them before cutting them open and removing their unborn child from their womb. It starts off with the main character, Detective Brown, coming out of a house in which the murder has been committed and explains that he cannot see something like that again. However he is very passionate about catching the killer as his wife is pregnant meaning that this is more personal and meaningful to him compared to other investigations Also Detective Jackson lost a wife who was pregnant many years ago although neither of them know this as both are too scared to show their fear. At the beginning our detectives are not very close and their personalities clash in many ways. However throughout the film as they experience and go through many things together the audience will gain a liking to them just as they will gain a liking to each other. However towards the end of the film when the true murderer is discovered, this is when the monster within them surfaces is shown and how they feel deep down is shown to the audience. There will be many twists throughout the film, false accusations and evidence leading the pair astray. The way the film will pan out will see if the audience are better detectives then our pair and uncover the mystery behind the identity of the killer before the detectives do.

Within the film there will be 6 murders throughout. 5 of the victims will be a pregnant woman. However there is one murder, a woman who is not pregnant which throws the pair way off track as this is an anomaly in the trail. Race will vary, and so will age, gender and social class between the victims so the only link which they have to work on is the fact that they were all pregnant. This one murder is the reason why the investigation takes so long and the fact that the investigation was dragged out for so long is the true reason why  the film ends the way that it does.
