question 3
Question 3
When looked at different types of production companies that would distribute our film during the planning stage. we looked at, Columbia Pictures, Warner Brothers, Paramount Pictures, and Universal Pictures. These distributors all have a large distribution of action/horror/thriller films therefore these production company would suit our film correctly. One way for us to distribute our film would be though film festivals such as London Film Festival; this would allow other people interested in film to see our work and potential.
We belive that our producer we use would be Warner Bros. Warner Bros is an American producer of film, tv and music entertainment which is based in New York and California. The company was founded in 1923 by Albert, Harry, Sam and Jack Warner. In 2012 they grossed about $4.3 billion at the worldwide box office, and their operating income is $1.2 billion. They have distributed many different types of films. For example The Wizard of OZ, Superman, Gangster Squad and Argo. We think that this distributor would be perfect for us. Firstly because it has created so many entertaining action/thriller films such as, The Departed, Inception, Man of Steel, Jack the Giant Slayer, The Dark Knight Rises, Green Lantern and Wrath of the Titans. This means that we have a chance with them and that they will consider our movie, because they will be used to the type of characters and set. Also from all the films that we have studied to get inspiration for our opening most of them was from this distribution company, which means that they have dealt with similar films to ours. This has given us the impression that they will be able to distribute of film to a high standard.

Question 5
How Did You Attract/Address Your Audience?
For our research we asked questions too people of the age group of 15-20 about what they would like to see in the film and also what genre of film they like watching the most. We found out that 87% of people like to watch horror films. We also found out that most teenage boys watch television, this is why in the film we thought that we would have the main character sitting down watching his favourite program.
We thought that we could attract the audience through the main character in the opening of the film. We done this by the way that Ben is dressed (Bens character will represent the other main characters throughout the film). We made sure that we thoroughly discussed what is in our film to attract our target audience as it is important to us that they are able to relate to narrative.
This is an image of the main characters costume. He is in his sportswear. This relates to most teenage boys who like sports because after they have finished training or a match they will sit at home in their kit and relax. This engages the reader and helps them understand more about the character.
We tried to engage the viewer by trying a variety of shots and different points of views. We done a number of point of view shots, this can make the viewer feel like they are in the characters position and think about what they would do if it was them. We also did some low and some high shots.
This is one of the best shots that we done. This shows that the victim is very weak and vulnerable in this situation. This instant showed us who was in charge of this situation.
This is also another very good shot that we got. This gives an impression to the viewer that something is going to happen he is just waiting for the right time. This engages the viewer because they have an idea what is going to happen but the main character is oblivious to the situation.
Question 7
Looking Back At Your Preliminary Task - What Do You Feel You Have Learnt In The Progression From It To Full Product.
In comparison to our opening to our film, we have made a large amount of progression from our preliminary task. This is because we were a lot more advanced in using Adobe Premier Pro CS6. The reason for this being that we knew what we needed to do to cut clips down and even make them slower or change colour etc. We also knew the best ways to get the perfect shots that we need and when we need them, this helped us a lot when editing because we could choose between various shots, whereas in our preliminary task we only got one shot that we needed as opposed to numerous amounts which made it difficult for us. We also found out a way of adding in titles in the film when we need them which adds to the effect very well. We was also much more prepared for our film opening than we was our preliminary task, this is because we knew what props we had to use, the story line and where was the perfect place to film, which made it a lot easier for us when we got started.
