In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions or real media products?

While making my media product, other sequences like Memento influenced me to use different camera shots but more particularly the black and white shots with increased pace to show that they are there for flash back purposes. This makes it easier for the viewers to understand the opening sequence and then can maybe familiarize themselves with the characters.
The casting of the characters in our film could also be linked to the man in Memento 'Leonard' as both characters are seen as harmless and innocent until later revealed in the film.

Also another film that could be linked closely to is Dexter. Both our film and the original show a character getting prepared for the day ahead. Although both films do this in different ways they are both very much effective. The film that we created perhaps causes curiosity to the viewers as they perhaps prepare questions about our main character whereas Dexter does this in a more sinister way.
