"Firewall"

Director: Richard Loncraine
Year: 2006

• fast shots used- in this clip 29 shots were used
• music- fast and dramatic
• use of sound- the phone
• the editing includes the spectator
• costumes- the baddies are wearing black
• "star vehicles"- when a film is made around a particular star

other notes from lesson:

• whop is making and controlling the film/
• producers are the people with the money
• if a film is adapted from a book the author sometimes talks to the director and/or goes down to the set, eg: The Harry Potter series and Sim City.
• "conglomeration"- means
• audience empathy
• I can use my borrowed shots for high tech shots if i want to.
