In what ways does my product use or challenge the conventions of existing products

During our pre production we looked at many similar films and existing products in order to gather inspiration and as such they have influenced our final product, we looked mainly at titles such as Shank and Kidulthood both films take place in South London and centre around urban youths, in these existing products like my own there is a conflict that surrounds the main protagonist usually centred around violent gangs.                      
On the left is the existing product Shank and the right my product Conflict, as well as similar themes and story, both are gritty dramas which are usually shot in darker lighting we used this technique as well in order to give a darker image and impression of the story and characters. Rather then challenge we followed the conventions of this genre in order to create a product that we know has a solid market and audience as we wanted our piece to be well received.
