What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

 Most films will have a sponsor or will have some sort of representation. for this case a small cinema might host our film. If we had carried on making this film at the same rate, we would not have gotten this to a large scale cinema or representation.
 However this would have appealed to some target audiences. In some cases, home made movies have become more popular and have managed to reach a large scale such as 'paranormal activity'.
 Youtube is a very good way to get people interested in our film, You tube is currently the most visited site by young people and this is our target audience.

Youtube do show films and TV programs on the site. Even though this would be un-beneficial for us, it would get us views and could then be found by someone who would want to represent our film. I think that this would be the best way as we would want a sponsor to represent our film and not waste our money on something that might not work out for our film.

I also think that this could be an appropriate film to be shown on channel four if it had ever gotten succesful enough.

How does your media product represent particular social groups?

Task five How did we attract/address your audience? In the first scene, nothing really makes any sense to the audience and this is the effect that we wanted. This way the audience will make assumptions about the one of the main characters, this is what will shock the audience when they realise what is happening. This first scene makes it obvious on what genre it is as the music adds to the effect. It shows a typical thriller horror film opening. Our next character is introduced through a flash image which also makes the audience confused, eventually it becomes almost clear to what is going on in the film but the rest of the film would reveal the true story. This opening can relate to many film openings such as Paranormal activity as there opening is similar as you don't know what is going to happen or what the plot is about, however the titles give away the plot towards the end. I think that we attracted our audience by making the opening mysterious, by doing this the audience want to know what is going on as most people would get frustrated when confused. We wanted our opening to be confusing to make sure the audience want to see more of the film to make total sense of what is happening. I think that the opening is very interesting as it has a twist to it too.

Preliminary Task

Preliminary Task.

Fot this task, we were asked to film a small shot which shows the 180 degree rule, our mis-en-scene and two people having a conversation. We chose to do a teacher having a conversation with a student. We showed a range of shots in this video. We first made a story board to make sure we knew what we were doing which was very helpful as we could refer to this when we were filming.

My role in this video was the director and this is where I showed people what to say, do and what should be filmed. I feel that this  was an important role as I had to decide a lot of things that would make the video look good and still show the 180 degree rule too. for the opening we used a panning shot to show the surroundings of the video. I made the characters sit down in this because it made it easier to shoot the 180 rule.

I am happy with the final result, it is a simple video but it still shows a range of different shots including the 180 degree rule. We edited the video to make it run smoother and I think we did this well, however I still think some elements could be improved such as the way the characters were positioned to give it a more professional approach. The shot reverse shot could also been improved as it was a bit edgy in a way. The filming was good overall but I think that we could have been a bit more steady. overall I think we worked very well as a group, I had fun making this video with the others and I think this is important as it makes the chemistry on screen much better. I do think we got on a bit to well though because it took many shots to get the right one as we got carried away slightly. Taking this all into consideration I think we did very well on this task. I would happily do it all over again.

Here are some shots of our video.

Genre's

There are many different genres and sub genres to choose from. For our choice of genre is Thriller, we have chosen this because we find that Thriller plots are most interesting and is most popular to our age group.

Why?
You could say that these films are most popular to our age group because we have just come to the age where we are now old enough to view these certificates and are therefore more new and exciting to us!
