12 Years of Slave
In this trailer, it begins with a number of black people
working on a field, picking cotton, wearing sun hats and white shirts. As this
is happening the white people are on top of the horse and riding it on the
field, this suggest and connote the code of convention of the film as in this shot/scene of the film, as its show
that the slavery movie, just from the clothes, body language and the actions. As
part of colonialism, it showed that white people were in charger and had
control over people; they had the right and laws to take over and control other
ethnicity groups like black people, as part of Alvarado’s theory, this film and
this scene, as this will fall into the dangerous and pitied as well, as the
whole trailer and film has a huge element of pitted and dangerous, as we as the
audience feel sorry and are worried for the characters, as they are being hit
with many weapons, just for the colour of their skin. The audience will feel
pitted for characters (black ale dominant) throughout the film and the trailer.
The audience will feel this, because they’ll see many scenes of black people
being wiped and hit with many different objective throughout the film. As in
one scene, the sound of the trailers changes and shows a sense of pride
happening in the film, as there are many scenes which shows that he want to
leave and still has hope of achieve, as the sound from the trailer and some of
the images shown shows a contrapuntal sound, negative images with a positive and
uplifting sound for the trailer.
Django Unchained
The beginning of the trailers starts with non-diegetic sound
playing in the background of the scene, as the music has a western sound at the
beginning, as this set the genre at the film at the beginning of the film. As at
the beginning it set the genre of western film due to the sound, as this set
the code of convention of guns, horses, weapons and bars. However, the first
scene starts with black male walking, showing no facial emotion, only see the
back of their head, but the audience can see chains, chaining the men up, as
the audience can see that wipe marks and bruise on the male backs, as they are
fresh and ripped apart, as this connote that this is a slavery movie, just from
the clothes, body language and the actions. As part of colonialism, it showed
that white people were in charger and had control over people; they had the
right and laws to take over and control other ethnicity groups like black
people. As part of franz’s theory, django is a character who describe his
theory, that all black wear white face, as he is a black person who is not a slave and working with the white
people.

This is a part of the exotic factor of Alvarado’s theory, beyonce is a very sexy and creative women, who is very iconic by the things she does and says and even wears in many of her music video like 1+1 and run the world (girls). As she is a very attractive and hot women in many of her video, as she show the audience her body and her flesh, as she a Carmel colours, to gather audience this colour is very attractive, as many would want to be this colours and follow her footstep and be her.
