10 Things I Hate About You Trailer Analysis:
One convention of a romantic comedy film that is shown in the film trailer for "10 things I hate about you" is the parents of the protagonist. The mum is shown as hard working and overprotective, while the dad of the character is shown as caring, but also clumsy and bumbling. Another convention of a romantic comedy that is shown is that it is set in a busy town/city. These are common locations for a film to be set, as they are places for people to see meet each other and to fall in love.
One effective camera shot/angle that is used is the high angle shot which shows the girl with her bumbling dad. In the scene, he has just thrown something in the direction of the ceiling, near to where the camera is hanging. This emphasises to the audience that he fits the representation of a dad in a romantic comedy, as it is a typical convention of this film genre. Another effective camera shot/angle that is used is the over the shoulder of the main girl, who is talking with one of the boys in the film. This is effective, as it shows that he is her main love interest in the film.
The editing between the scenes in the trailer are of a faster pace, to show people what will happen throughout the film. The main girl in the film is given prevalence in the trailer, to show to the audience that she is the main character in the film.

Soundtrack Research
Soundtrack Research:
The common soundtrack for a horror film is slow,tense music which builds up in pace and volume. This eventually climaxes to a loud, out of sync note which stuns and scares the audience alongside the scene. The music usually correlates to what is happening in the scene. For example, if a character was running down a corridor at a fast pace, then the music would increase in tempo as well.
In the scene in our film, when the camera zooms in on the doll, we will have a slow,eerie piece of non copyrighted music, perhaps played on a violin, to create a dark and creepy atmosphere. This type of music would make the audience feel uncomfortable when watching the scene.
Another scene in our film will have one of us jumping out from behind a door. For this scene, we will use a piece of music on a piano, which will be building up to the character jumping out. At this point, the piece of music would end on a suspended note on the piano, to make the audience jump when watching the scene.

180 Degree Rule
180 degree rule in filming:
The 180 degree rule is used in filming by directors to show two subjects communicating with each other which helps the audience feel like they're a part of the scene. An invisible line is used by the directors to help them film it so it doesn't look like the two subjects are talking to each other and instead are talking to the other characters in the scene.
