Codes and conventions of media are defined as:
"The familiar and predictable forms and techniques used by the media to communicate certain ideas or to convey a desired impression. Technical codes include camera angles, sound, and lighting. Symbolic codes include the language, dress, and actions of characters"
We aimed for our media product to be as realistic and professional as possible. We took inspiration from a number of comedy films and used the tilt upwards in the beginning scenes to add a comic effect. We started at Brian’s feet because we wanted to slowly reveal the rest of his features, we then added the music in which made this even more humorous
We have challenged the usual media conventions because we have stereotyped two people to the absolute maximum, we did this purely for a comic effect- as you can see from the audience feedback, this has been entirely successful and if this were to be distributed for real- then it would be a hit with the support of the target market.
