Our film Lithium is a fairly Low risk film as seen here, we do not have any dangerous or risky scenes in our opening 2 minutes of our film, our only potentially risky scene was our shooting scene as passers by may of mistaken this for a real gun, we did our best to minimise this through telling dog walkers and every one in sight within the park we were filming and the director and camera man wore high visibility jackets.

jarhead

Jarhead is a film Based on former Marine Anthony Swofford's best selling 2003 book about his pre Desert Storm experiences in Saudi Arabia and about his experiences fighting in Kuwait the role of Anthony Swafford is played by Jake gyllenhaal and the film directed by sam mendes. The film had a budget of $70,000,000 and in its opening weekend recieved $27,726,210 with an overall gross being $62,647,540. The film opens from a blackout using a fade in to a wide angle shot of the army boot camp where anthony swafford has joined, this is probably used to show the negative begining the film hosts, the film is very stereotypical straight from the start as his staff sergent begins to scream and shout ordering the new recruits around like in every typical war film. This is the realistic stereotype used of the training and toughening process used for setting marines up for future war which they will be servicing in. The film is a stereotypical view of the war as it shows from the very first day that swafford begins to regret applying for the army as most new recruits do realising the demands put upon them, to lighten the mood happy non digetic music is played as he gets on the bus to his traing corp. From this point the expressions on the recruits faces tells us they have underestimated the marine corp and what it will require. The mise en scene is used very well in this film from the start as marines are dressed in full kit, they have many background actors, they have used a realistic scene and base and the film feels real from the first instance. the camera angles from the beggining have been set upon using simple techniques, following all the rules of continuous (invisible) editing to give the viewer the feel they are in his shoes. The camera has not broken any rules of invisible editing and the editing within this intro seems basic but effective. Jarhead has used sound very effectively within this film opening to portray the mood and feel of the soldiers, for example the loud shouting from the staff sergents, the distant muffled orders from other platoons, the mumbling of the marines and the soundtracks used to lighten the mood and darken it in the corect times.

 

In more detail the film is set about Anthony Swofford, a Camus kid from Sacramento, enlists in the Marines in the late 1980s. He malingers during boot camp, but makes it through as a sniper, paired with the usually reliable Troy. The Gulf War breaks out, and his unit goes to Saudi Arabia for Desert Shield. After 175 days of boredom, adrenaline, heat, worry about his girl-fiend finding someone else, losing it and nearly killing a mate, demotion, toilet cleaning, faulty gas masks, and desert football, Desert Storm becomes mentally hard for swafforf as in less than five days he gets his chance for a kill but is finnaly denied by senior officers. Before he knows it the wars over and after everything he trained for, did and saw he did not get that kill he went for.

here is a table showing the most important demographics of viewers, Age, gender and class. The table i have put in to show i have also researched into the type of films i will be creating (Action) the film was rated a 15 so obviously no one under the age of this viewed this film in the cinema, as predicted there was a larger percentage male audience and  the highest percentage viewers from 15-24 year olds.
