Film Genre Research

 The F1 movie uses a lot of camera techniques and angles to capture the high speed racing that takes place. The high angle with the helicopter helps capture the intensity when racing is happening, and the close ups in the car capture the intensity and focus of the driver, and the different emotions that a driver can go through when racing. The camera hold technique as Sonny Hayes is walking out creates a seriousness that takes place when a driver is about to race. Sound is very important when racing, it captures the noise of the cars, crowd, and team when the racing is happening. The props used are different car company hats, racing helmets and suits, headphones and the cars add to the racing theme and drama of the movie, mise en scene can also be seen as all props, lighting, camera work, and techniques can all be seen in certain scenes.

The F1 movie had around a 200-300 million dollar production distributed by Warner Bros. It grossed over $633 million worldwide, becoming the highest grossing auto racing film ever, with production from Jerry Bruckheimer Films and Plan B Entertainment. The opening credits happen when Joshua Pearce is doing lap times, and the credits appear in the middle in white in a basic font, going through distributors, producers and actors. The movie won 4 2026 Academy Award nominations with best picture, film editing, sound and visual effects.

 Waves can be taken as an inspiration for ideas on how to shoot our movie. The start of the plot where stan makes a massive mistake at the start of the movie during a party under the influence. As well as getting physical with his family during an argument. This can be taken into consideration for the first half of our film, where either me or Jeremyah are a heavy partyer, and a mistake changes the course of one of our lifes. Waves could help us plan the scene and decide what, where and how to shoot, and what we think would help the film in helping portray our social issue.  Waves used a lot of handheld shots to help show a real human to human interaction.
