Regulation

Regulation

‘Regulate’- a rule or directive made and maintained by an authority.

In my own opinion I believe that regulation is the organisation from the BBFA ratings for all types of media, reaching from films to music videos and video games. In which it was created to rate films so that the specific intended audience would be able to view an appropriate media platform.  In other words regulation is there to help protect the vulnerable viewers from dangerous messages or content.

Whilst regulation benefits millions of people it is also substantial who helps set the guidelines for the BBFA. Particularly speaking, regulating from society on a whole is vital to them as there are multiple different races, age and religion. The more people who represent society on a whole the more successful the regulation is. Furthermore other people who are regulating should not be biased in any way as it causes disruption between the regulators and affect the society by harmful content.

More subsequently regulations are there to help keep the law instead off breaking it due to people being influenced by the wrong things, which is why most films/ video games and music videos that involves a negative aspect on abiding with rules often have a consequence at the end of it. More importantly with people playing video games more often (approx. 1.2 billion) it would seem that effects on the games seem ever so real which encourages the regulators to rethink of the accessibility for the younger viewers.
Finally other views of reasoning whether regulation should exist or not in my opinion should definitely be used as it keeps humanity in check with their behaviours and how beneficial this is towards the younger viewers as their minds won't be contaminated. My view is that if there weren't any regulators we as a society would become desensitised to the films/ video games and music videos, therefore leading us to replicate these same very things.

300 word analyse sub-genre of the film Cabin in The Woods

Week 2 task 3 Using your notes from class on sub-genre and Horror conventions,  write a 300 word summary  of HOW the film make interesting use of the conventions of Horror and Sub-genres you have studied. Cabin in The Woods utilizes different sub-genres throughout the film that highlight the categories in the horror genre. This Horror film begins with the odd sense of the film actually  not fitting the right requirements to see it as a horror film as lighting, sound, camera, editing and mis-en-scene all play an essential part of diverting from its true nature. Other horror films begin with dark and gloomy lighting, plus the addition and sound creating the tension it would seem ideal. Furthermore the 5 fictional characters help portray certain traits such as the dumb blonde, the smart one, the virgin girl, the athlete and the fool. In film as custom the slutty girl dies first with her sins put to sleep, with the other characters due to die except from the virgin girl ...

Essay on Narrative Theorists

Essay on Narrative Theorists Introduction The trailer that I will be analysing is from ‘Jumpscare Productions’ and it is called ‘The Collector’, reason being is because they included multiple narrative theorists that can be explored within their teaser trailer. Narrative is a story that is created in a constructive format that describes a sequence of fictional or non-fictional events.  Mostly Todorov and Levi-Strauss are seen exponentially in the trailer as they would mostly be classed as the foundations of a typical horror film teaser trailer. The fact that they allow the audience to only view the equilibrium and disequilibrium but disregard the resolution shows their knowledge on the narrative theorist Todorov. Paragraph 1:  Expanding on their use of the narrative theorist Todorov helped allow the trailer to develop a structured base which included the Equilibrium and Disequilibrium. Following this pattern allowed the audience to follow the trailer identifying...

Essay on Genre theorists

Essay on Genre theorists The trailer that I will be analysing is from ‘Splasher Splasher productions’. Their teaser trailer was very interesting as it included some horror conventions such as the corridor of doom which is ideal as it helps set the scene for their trailer. In addition the trailer includes one of the five genre theorists in it as well; Rick Altman seems to have played a vital role in the trailer as it seems this production gave off an emotional pleasure as it proves that the use of blackouts and eerie, intense music helps set a certain tone to the trailer as it may imply how the audience should be feeling at that very moment.  Furthermore the trailer also could be classed as an urban genre as urban genres are usually dark and broadcast the underside of a city. This trailer shown could also be shown in another view point as the use of the trailer could be made into a parody, the fact that its the same footage as many other horror trailers insights the audience ...
