Aims and Context

Aims

I aim to create a sequence from the fictional film 'The Detective Chronicles of Alfred McGuiness' in a Film Noir style and use the common codes and conventions to create a parody of the usual detective film. With the use of the most common codes and conventions it will be easier to raise these to a parodical status. I will be using a genre-based approach and will look at different films of the genre. The audience I will be aiming at is the 15-20 year old in a working class family and preferably have some experience in Film Noir so as to recognize the conventions of the genre.

Context

The context of my sequence is to introduce the main protagonist of the film as well as the disruption in the narrative. I will be taking on the role of director, camera man and editor so as to produce the film language that I want exactly. This particular scene is the first scene after the opening scene and as such will introduce the first secondary character in the narrative
