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

I created a short film. At the start of the project I analysed a number of different short films in order to see how the majority worked. From my research, I discovered that the vast majority used limited casts and locations. Therefore in my own film, I wanted to use these conventions and as such the finished product contains a cast of two and a compact location. However, whilst many of the films I researched had outdoor locations, for my film I opted to challenge these conventions by setting it almost entirely in a single hallway with brief looks at other rooms. A picture of the location is shown below:
