Evaluation-In what ways does my media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

The majority of the whole film and the whole of the opening sequence uses forms and conventions of gritty urban British crime dramas. From the typical postcode location to the typical characters portrayed and used in the film and the opening sequence. Their is plenty of violence in our film and our opening sequence and that is the case in many crime dramas that I researched.They always usually start with a deal that has gone wrong that ends up in violence like in Heat for example and we felt that was one of the best ways to start the film as it will make the audience more interested in the storyline.

However their is one thing we have done where we have challenged a form and convention of a typical urban British crime drama storyline and that is a criminal and a policeman working together. This is a very rare storyline and you often find that the criminal and policeman are enemies and against each other in crime dramas. However that is not the case for our storyline and we felt it would be good for us to have a unique storyline something that is a bit different from all the other usual crime dramas.
