MEDIA THEORIES!

 Helloooo Cambridge!

So I’ve been brushing up on my media theories to see which one would fit my storyline the BEST. Simply on first glance I knew that my plot would depend on two things. The Action Code and actually going against the Character Theory. The Action Code simply states that scenes need to be utilized that lead the audience to want to know what’s next, I want to make such a cold opening to this film that audiences are forced to want to know why that happened and what’s coming next. Now the Character Theory states that characters can be fit into a specific 7 roles, what the theory leaves out is an Anti-Hero. Anti-Heroes are popular amongst action and spy films, a great example is Wolverine from the X-Men series, yes he saves people and he’s a hero but he does it in brutal and sometimes unnecessarily violent ways. I’ll be using my knowledge on these theories to be able to fully make a great film opening!
