3&4)EVALUATION-WHAT KIND OF MEDIA INSTITUTION MIGHT DISTRIBUTE YOUR MEDIA PRODUCT AND WHY? HOW WILL YOU ATTRACT/ADDRESS YOUR AUDIENCE

Our film 'TIMES UP' is of low budget and is made by me n some other students , it will be released over the internet on vimeo, embedded on to a blog and find it's way on to youtube. it will get a cinematic screening and shared screening amongst my peers and maybe family.

i would use the internet for further distribution by making a website to promote the film with free downloads such as film related games, pictures and the soundtrack, also i would have online posters of the film.

i would attract my audience by giving them free downloads also by teaming up with a organisation such as HMV CURZON because they would give special rewards such as free tickets for CURZON cinemas in different magazines for different genders so it can can attract more people also by word of mouth our film could also be promoted.

Thriller Movie Descritpion

Thrillers often take place in settings such as foreign cities, deserts, polar regions, or high seas. The heroes in most thrillers are frequently "hard men" accustomed to danger: law enforcement officers, spies, soldiers or seamen . However, they may also be ordinary citizens drawn into danger by accident. A good example of a thriller is 'Jaws'. Jaws is a 1975 American film directed by Steven Spielberg and is based on a novel by Peter Benchley. The police chief of Amity Island, a fictional summer resort town, tries to protect beachgoers from a giant great white shark by closing the beach, only for the town council to change the decision, which wants the beach to remain open to draw a profit from tourists during the summer season. during that time, several attacks take place and the police chief enlists the help of a marine biologist and a professional shark hunter.

3&4) Film distribution EVALUATION

Film distributers try to persuade audiences by entertaining them and use compelling ways to want to make them want to see the film. Distributers allow the audience to have a little sneak peak of the film before it comes out in the cinemas.

Distributers use various ways to market the film for e.g. they would create posters, banners, trailers etc... to attract the target audience. Distributers market their films online and mobiles as well. However this isn't the only way a film is marketed because it could be marketed through word of mouth.

The way our film would be marketed is that we're going to create posters which would be used to introduce it to the audience and to also attract them.

This isn't the only way we are going to market our media product. We are also going to market the film by creating merchandises and having other companies involved in selling our film so that it would attract a much wider audience i.e The Nokia company. They helped market Star Trek by converging Star Trek and the Nokia phone together.

Skills audit: Live type and sound

We practiced using 3 softwares livetype, final cut and soundtrack pro. These softwares are important in making thriller openings. Livetype is used for editing the titles and credits.

Final cut pro is used for editing clips, Before doing this we practiced on draft clips so we would know how to make them into a final clip.

The last software we used was soundtrack pro which is used for importing different sounds. It creates various sounds like high and low tension etc. We played around with different sound and finally came up with one that suited our thriller.

Filming in Green Street

The first day when we went out filming was that we decided to film in Green Street the reason why we wanted to film in Green Street was because our story line was about racism where the killer is white who only kills muslim women. We filmed in Green street because we needed a busy area full of asian people. The only problem we had in this was the time. We didn't have enough time to film and when we got there we was unable to film anything because we had to go back.

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

This image is from the movie 'Seven' where the photo's are being cut and scribbled on.

This is similar to the one we have done in our thriller clip 'Times Up' because we are also scribbling and burning photos.
