Task 1: In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media produtcs?

In this shot the driver is showing the victim her driver's license as a form of ID that he has stolen. This conforms to the conventions of a film sequence because even before he had shown her the audience were already catching onto the idea that this driver wasn't normal. However when he shows the stolen ID the audience now definately know he is not normal and infact very dangerous.

This image shows the worried expression in our victims face. This also upholds the conventions of a film sequence because it shows fear, fear that something bad is about to happen.

This image is taken from our first shot of the sequence. It is suppossed to establish the fact that our victim is on her own after leaving a club. This also upholds the conventions of a film sequence because the fact she is on her own makes it more believeable for her to be abducted by the driver.

This image is suppossed to show that our victim was first of all in a busy town with little chance to be hurt because she was around the public. You could argue that this image subverts the conventions of a thriller film sequence because she is safe, however this changes when she enters the taxi.

We wanted to show the contrast between the legitimate taxi and the unlicensed taxi. By having the real taxi drive off and eliminate the safety factor of our victim conforms to the conventions of our sequence because it is no longer definate that she is getting into a real taxi.

This shot is to show the struggle and dispair of our victim when she has realised she is in danger from the driver in the unlicensed taxi. This conforms to the conventions of our thriller sequence because the viewer now knows for definate that something is wrong and she is in danger.

This image shows the driver in the foreground and the victim in the background-stating the different levels of power between the two. This image conforms to the conventions of a thriller film sequence because the audience can tell that the driver has power over the victim by the menicing look in his face.

This image definately conformed to the conventions of a thriller film sequence. I think this is a typical shot to use in a thriller because the villan is staring on at the victim which creates a sense of fear for the victim due to the muderous stare. This makes the audience fear for the victim.

This final image is from the drivers point of view, again looking into the mirror. Except this time we have altered the mirror to be reflecting the victim in the back seat asleep. This creates suspension from the previous shot because now the victim is asleep and can easily be harmed by the villan, again conforming to the conventions of a thriller film sequence.
