questionaire feedback
From the questionnaire that i went round asking people within the target audience range i thought would best suit my film genre i asked a mixture of boys and girls. From the results i have learnt that boys are more interested in fact pace action films than girlie chick flick, i already assumed this information but i wasn't sure. They like the idea of not knowing to much about the film within the opening and liked the thought of being in suspension, this gives me the idea that within our opening i shall not give the storyline. Some people liked the fact that the actors within the film are well known so if i had a big budget and effort more well known actors than we would but as we have had to use people within our group we have tried our best to make sure they resemble the style of actor we would use. The title we have choose was also very successful and people like it as it was 'catchy' and easy to remember. The questionnaire made me realise that not just boys like fast pace action packed film girls does too but not as much as boys do.

evaluation of film anaylysis
Evaluation of film analysis
After analysing four different films opening with the same genre of ‘gangster’ it has helped me realise what conventions are needs to make up a gangster genre film. Gangster genre films aren’t high budget locations as they are more family located area such as a housing estate or in a public places such as a pub. But due to the props that are need in the film and the stunt scenes and the action pack fighting scene that happen throughout these film this all adds up which makes them a high budget film to make. The props within in the films are and main impact and important to film and help make up the genre such as weapons cigarette alcohol, drugs etc. The actors within the film are well known for being involved with gangster genre of films; Danny Dyer, Vinnie Jones, Jason Statham, and Frank Harper. The films are based round a group of hooligans what they do in their free time or as a living and what they believe in. From two of the four opening hat I analysis we find out what is happening on the screen and give us an idea what shall be happening later on in the film. We find out who the main character are or who is more likely to be involved as they are shown a lot more than other characters. From one of the opening we don’t find out too much about the character just a bit about him background and where is from and where is going whilst being in an airport. I liked this opening the best (Green street) as it left the audience in suspense of what shall be happening later on in the film. From this I have thought maybe we shall leave the audience to our opening in the dark about which the characters are what they are doing. This leaves the audience in suspense and wanting to find out more about our opening. It also creates tension with shall be happening in the clip. Within the clips they also have some sort of action if it is fighting or tension between other characters which shows that there shall be some sort of action later on in the films. The films are mainly aimed at men and the characters are mainly men which also give the feeling that the films are aimed at men. Analysing the opening of the films have given me a better understanding of the genre and the conventions that are need to make my own opening look good and suit with the genre well. It has also give me inspiration what I can do for my own opening with my group.

green street analysis
Is the genre established? What is it?
No within the first two minutes you don't understand what the genre of the film, but from your own knowledge if you have watch this film you would know it is an gangster genre film with British realism involved. The opening of the film give no hints or clue to what the genre is.
How is the genre is the genre established? What conventions?
We don't find out what the genre is from the opening but we seeing that he is moving from one country to another then swaps some money other he is has some important role.Also from the voice over within in the airport he is at it is an British airport.
What else does the audience find out from the first two minutes?
We find out that is moving as he had nothing to keep him in his own country that maybe he is starting out fresh. We also found out who the main character is as he is the only person in the camera shots. as he is alone and he is in an airport we start to think why is he leaving is he running away from something or is it his own choice?
How do we find this out?
The fact he is moving by himself either give us the conclusion that he has no family or friends that wanted to come with him or he is going over to visit some family. The main person within this two minute clip we assume he is the main character as there is only him that we see within the shot as we as the audience we as sort of following this character move and watching where is moving to. When we see the man exchanged his money up we assume that money shall be a key factor within this film as we as the audience have a zoom in close up to how much money he has and what his exchanging up. Also we known the character is originally from America as he has an American accent as later on within the clip we here him narrate what he is doing this makes us think he is the main character.

snatch anaylsis
Snatch;
Is the genre established? What is it?
Yes the genre is established within the first two minutes, it is a gangster and we think it is a British realism based film too but actual of fact the film is an American funded film.
How is the genre established? What conventions?
Straight about we guess the film is going to have some sort of action involved from the up beat background music. We are then shown several different clips of different characters through-out the clip. Through the different clips we see props from like diamonds to guns to money to some characters undress themselves from the outfits they have been wearing to covering themselves up with- this gives the idea they have been involved with something that they don't want there identity involved. Seeing this this gives the audience the feel that there is some dodgy deals going on within different social groups/gangs. The props being used in this film are the main conventions for this film and the way they have been shown.
What else does the audience find out within the first two minutes?
Usually within the first two minutes of a film we as the audience find out who the main character is and what type of role they shall been playing. From the first two minutes we find out there is a lot of character who shall be involved in some sort of dealing. Which also makes assume that they aren't all working together and helping one another out. We assumes some sort of death shall be involved or gun scene as they use the prop of a gun a fair amount. Also there is an automatic vibe that the majority of the action that shall be taking place on this film shall be illegal.
How do we find this out?
We assume that it is some sort of stolen goods that is being passed from person to person from the title 'snatch', also the way the opening has been edited it seems that some goods are being passed through people or they are being snatch from one another. Usually when a gun is involved within in the opening it is being used as a statement that its shall have some role as being used as a weapon later on in the film. The location of the films are also very isolated places where they are hiding from other people of keeping their business which helps the audience guess the genre. If you have watched this film or already known a bit about the film you might know it is a 'Guy Richie film' and we base other films he has been involved in it helps give the audience that the film is going to be a gangster genre like his previous film 'Snatch'.
