Q1. In what ways does your media products use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

Typically, film openings contain: 

•   the title
• the names of the director, cast etc
•  music  (which often sets the mood)
• the institutional identity/logo for the production + distribution company
•  the setting/location
•  an introduction to at least 1 main character
• diegetic + non diegetic sound combination

We have followed the conventions of a title sequence as we have included most features found typically in title sequences. Here I compare the title sequence from The Stepfather to Las Drogas del Amor.
