Bullitt's story is not even eluded to during the opening two minutes, and a ton of dolly shots, close ups, and wide-shots are used. Only the starring actor's names are shown, and primitive CGI is used to dramatize the showing of their names. There is no sound besides the jazz-like music in the background. At a $5 million budget, it grossed over $43 million at the box office. The film was nominated for 17 awards, of which it won 7.

The story is semi-revealed, as the audience is told it will be about a teenager faking an illness to skip school. The camera shots consist of wide-shots, mid-shots, and primarily close-ups.

The film made $70.1 million from a $5.8 million budget. It was nominated for two awards, one of which it won.

None of the story is revealed in the first two minutes of this movie.

There are zero job titles listed, but there is the Universal logo. The movie was nominated for 21 awards, and won a total of 10. The movie's budget was $38 million, and it made more than $207 million.

I have chosen to complete a movie for my Media Studies project. I have access to many cameras along with any props I would need for the movie. I also have made movies before, so I have more experience doing this than writing a newspaper. The film will most likely be a comedy involving racing, as that's what I am most familiar with. It will likely be a comedy or a drama, as those are the only types of films I have made. I am working alone for the projects, but I will have actors to play different roles. All my actors will need to be decent at acting and have confidence, but won't need anything more than that.

Films and movies are a topic that I can use for my AICE Media Studies Project. I have created a few short films before, so I have at least a little experience. In class we have been taught camera angles along with other filming procedures, which I can employ to create a good movie. In Media Studies class, we have watched an assortment of films, ranging from fiction, like Ferris Bueller's Day Off, to nonfiction, All the President's Men, and I have gathered many ideas for a movie in between.
