Coursework Closing Statement...

Now that my coursework is complete, I feel that I have learnt a great deal of information throughout my time as a media student from the Preliminary Task to now. Although, learning how to operate new technologies has been challenging, I definitely believe that it has been a rewarding experience. Initially, I did find it hard to take in and learn new information, but this is due to not taking media for a GCSE, so I thought I was a little bit behind. I think I've gained a bit of confidence from taking expensive equipment up to London with my group, and back which was a huge responsibility that I was happy to be a part of.

Production Name...

As a group we decided to change our Production Name to R.I.F.T Productions, as it sounds more professional and features all of the groups names in it.

Evaluation of 'True Disguise'-Question 7:

Looking back to your preliminary task, what do you feel that you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?

Evaluation of 'True Disguise'-Question 6:

What have you learnt about the technologies from the process of constructing the product?

Evaluation of 'True Disguise'-Question 5

How did you attract/address your audience?
 
 

Another way I would market my film is by showing trailers in cinemas and on TV at certain times of the day to make sure the target audience see it; teenagers from 4:00pm-10:00pm to make sure they continuously see it from after they finish school to a little after the average bedtime. For the young adults, trailers would be shown after watershed – (9:00pm-5:30pm), because some could work later than others. One more tactic to draw in the audience is by using big brands like Body Shop to give out free tasters or something that could of been used in the film or like for BJD using Virgin Atlantic’s “Does this '2 for 1’ Offer To London Make Our Butt Look Big?” to pull in the older audience.

Evaluation of 'True Disguise'-Question 4

How does your media product represent particular social groups?

Evaluation of 'True Disguise'-Question 3:

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

I think that Universal Pictures would distribute my film because they are vertically integrated; this means that they will be able to produce and distribute the film without there being high cost. They would also be appropriate because they have a wide target audience which would help our film become popular quicker. Universal Pictures have distributed Romantic Comedies before, for example Bridget Jone’s Diary, this is a tent pole film, as it made $10.8 million within its first week of opening, which allowed Universal Pictures to release Bridget Jone’s Diary: Edge of Reason later on This is because the first was such a hit. Guaranteeing our film global success.

Another Distributor I would choose MGM or Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, this is because they also have experience with distributing Romantic Comedies’ too. For example, ‘When Harry Met Sally’, a well known film among adults and young adults around the world.
