A few key concepts

Institution: It is responsible for making the media texts.

• Commercial - have to make money to survive wanting to access large audiences
• PSB - required to provide a public service when broadcasting.
• Independent - Have to be able to sell their texts in order to make money for their company to survive.

Therefore, to make a Rom-com film we would be in a commercial institution.

Torodov's theory: Starts with an equilibrium then gets disrupted by an event/s. Then problems are resolved so order can be restored. (Narrative story)

Our film will not be torodov's theory as we plan to disrupt the narrative and start from the very present and go back into the past. However, when in the past it will apply to Torodov's theory because of starting off with an equilibrium, getting disrupted and then a resolved problem.

Cinematography : Includes camera shots and camera angles.
