-How and why will you use media language in your media production?
-How and why will you construct representations of individuals, groups, and issues/events?
-How will you target your intended audience/users?
-How will your production conform to its industry context?
In this audio-visual, media language will be used to make it distinct to the genre it is conveying. Hand-held camera shots will be used to create a sense of realism, panning shots will be used to display the setting/surroundings, close ups will be used to direct audiences’ attention to certain aspects of the narrative. The mise-en-scene will increase the authenticity of the genre, by using natural lighting, modern clothing and props to create a sense of tension and realism. Re-occurring props will also be used to carry the narrative. Sound effects will be natural and will mimic the real life noises that would be heard, however tense music will be used.
Representations will be constructed to fit the conventions of a crime-drama. The antagonist will be portrayed by a male adult that will be anonymous. Representation of ethnicity and disability will be stereotypical with the victim being a young black female who is mute, this stereotype is challenged throughout the episode but not in this audio-visual.
Audiences will relate to the age of the characters due to their similarity in age (young adults) and therefore how the characters think and act. The audience will see representations of their-selves within the audio-visual through the age and gender as well as one character having a disability. Use of a stereotypical antagonist creates a sense of familiarity and this representation may feel more comforting as it fits their expectations. The representation of kidnapping in the audio-visual will be stereotypical along with the responses to the kidnapping being portrayed as devastating.
The aim of the programme is to enable the audience to connect with the characters and this correlates to ITV's public responsibility to reflect modern society through its programmes which this does by showing a tragic event that happens in society. The use of a character that is particularly vulnerable in this society as the victim perhaps shines light on the mistreatment of people that do not conform to the societal expectations and ITV aims to achieve this.
