However with a twist as ‘johny’ is approached by Aftab and Uzair, Uzair is betrayed by his fellow friend. The trailer starts by showing the release date of ‘johny’ that can be seen as the villain. The type of music played in the background is grime as it’s the music which is listened to by their target audience the working class in this case is young adults ageing 15-25. It’s a movie set in the streets of Southall. There is a lighting of darkness as the actors within the movie facial expressions are serious and down to business and violence usually occurs at night. The costumes shown are the characters wearing hoodies which are clothing represented in the news and other mediums as intimidating, it is also a way of remaining hidden and unexposed. The props used is a gun as the movie contains a lot of violence, showing people getting mugged on the streets and baseball bats as weapons and drugs as their product of making money which is the target the actors are trying to make.
www- good editing, good use of sound and enjoyable story line
EBI- better video quality 




Best year 13 production: call of duty
This was a game play for call of duty, this was good as the timeing of the gunshot and the sound was accurate.
The lighting was during the day so the player can see where its character is moving and towards what direction and see its opponent to kill in order to gain points.
The setting was in the woods this was so the game could match the games map ‘wasteland’ which is meant to be based in the woods.
They used songs such ‘freak me’ to make it more entertaining and comedy.
www- good timing of sound and the gunshot also the loading time was accurate.
EBI- used play guns or something to make it more realistic
