Legal and Ethical
Legal and Ethical issues related to my thriller opening
Legal
Product placement
There will be no product placement throughout the movie. Product placement is when films include specific products (Such as James Bonds's Aston Martin) and advertise them generally for money.
Certification (BBFC)
The opening sequence of the film would be rated U due to the fact that no language, sex, nudity, drugs etc is shown. The film as a whole would more than likely be rated 15 as frequent use of strong language will be used and violence may be strong. Filming of the violence in the rest of the thriller will not focus heavily on blood, gore and injuries so we feel that the 18 rating was too much. We thought that we would try to keep the film into a lower classification as possible in order to be appeal to a wider variety of audience. I gathered information of certification guidelines from the BBFC website.
Copyright
Their are no copyright issues within the Thriller opening sequence. However the script will be copyrighted by us and all of the work we did was our own (for example we did not use a copyrighted music track)
Ethical
Drugs
Drugs are not used or referenced at all during our thriller opening sequence. if we did reference drugs we would not be allowed to encourage drug misuse within the rating of a 15 film. also easily accessible drugs such as aerosols is unlikely to be acceptable
Sex
No sex or nudity is shown throughout the film, sex has a huge impact of how a film is rated. if the thriller did include a sex scene it would have to be rated 18.
Racism
Racism is unacceptable and unnecessary. It definitely will not be used in our thriller.

Analysis of live TV coverage (Glastonbury 2011)
Camera work
The camera is almost constantly panning throughout live music coverage, ariel shots are oftenly used above the audience showing us the full atmosphere and the band or artist on stage. Their are many hand held cameras on stage giving us action shots mainly of the main artist and others of the drummer and guitarist. their is a camera on a track located just in front of.
Editing
Vision-mixing is used in live coverage, this is basicly mixing between different visions, also pre recorded packages are edited among the live footage because some bands proform at the same time on diffetent stages (clashes) and to give presenters and cameramen enough time to prepare for the next set.
Presenters
The presenters tend to be dressed like the main target audience, the presenter presents the show or in live music events cases, the event itself or next artist. some presenters may double in an actor, model, singer, comedian etc..
Sound
The sound of a live music event is recorded by professionals. in a live music event we here not only the music recorded we here the crowd to give the audience a much better atmosphere and the presenters. a various amount of microphones are used including one on each band member, around or above the crowd also on each presenter. the sound (speech) used by the presenters varies on the target audience for example in a festival aimed at teenagers slang language will be spoken by presenters

Homes under the hammer tv show analysis
Homes under the hammer
AO1 – Analysis of a Television show
Format and content
The factual TV show created by Melanie Eriksen is about properties brought at an auction requiring a lot of refurbishment. Each show lasts one hour and follows three properties from the UK (or two properties if it is a 30 minute show)
A wide variety of properties are shown throughout the show such as terraced, commercial, rural, and vacant land.
The two main producers of this show are Martin and Lucy they are introduced at the beginning of each show using captions stating their names
the show often starts with good mise-en-scene, a panning downwards shot is used at the very beginning starting at the sky then pointing at both producers, (a good example of this is on the 71st episode of the 14th series.
The programme follows a set template. One of the presenters will view a property prior to going up for auction to start the show, giving their opinion on it and its potential problems as well as attractive features. A local estate agent will also be invited to give their opinion on the property. The auction will then be shown and the final sale price revealed.
The most popular camera angle or shot in this show is the tracking shot. A lot of tracking shots are used throughout the tv show following the main presenters or simply just setting the scene. Voice overs of usually Martins voice are used also throughout the show to inform the audience what is happening almost narrating.
After a property is sold we are introduced to the buyers of the property, the presenter presenting the episode will interview the buyers asking them the same questions which is what they are going to do with the property (sell, inhabit or rent) what damage needs repairing, their budget and also time limit.
The first part of the show has now been played usually lasting anything between 10 and 15 minutes long, a “homes under the hammer” graphic is used to cut the camera and take us to the next property where the first sequence is repeated in a different location followed by the third.
In the second part of the show we see the properties later on after the buyers have finished all the work on them, we see the houses finished in the same sequence as the first part of the show (starting with house 1 ending in house 3) showing all work that has been done to the house and before and after shots like these
….
The property is then valued again and the total profit is calculated if the owner does decide to sell it or not.
Conventions
Homes under the hammer have two main presenters, Lucy Alexander and Martin Roberts. The full cast includes Series Directors, Series Writers, Producers, Production Management, Art Department, Sound Department, Camera and Electrical Department, Series Editorial Department, Music Department and production team members.
A lot of tracking shots are used also panning shots to create mise-en-scene throughout the different locations and properties and little handheld camera work, occurring only when necessary. Most of the camera angles being mid shots and not many close ups unless the camera is trying to show something.
The editing process includes the opening sequence to start the program, which is used in all episodes and all clips must be put onto a timeline using the best footage only. The editors have to organise all of the footage and edit it to play in a chronological order smoothly.
