Question 3
What kind of media institution might disturbute your media product and why?
After doing extensive research, we discovered that StudioCanal would be a viable distributor for our film "Presence". The company produced a film called "The Apparition" which is extremely similar to "Presence", due to the concept of the film and the possessed female character. It's also a horror genre, which "Presence" also is.
Not only that, Studio Canal have distributed a wide array of commercially and critically acclaimed films with many different themes of genres. One of the company's most early distributions was "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" which was massively successful and proves the company has experience with distributing massive films as well as smaller/lower budget films. A distributor with this kind of experience and expertise is what is needed to distribute our film and have it make the largest profit.
"The Apparition", evidence that StudioCanal has experience with films similar to our own.
Other options
Warner Brothers, another possible film distributor. |
Question 6
What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?
This is a screenshot of the editing process we used on premier. This shows the software we used. The small squares represent how we edited and cut the clips together. Also how we added sound effects, the soundtrack we used throughout, foley, and added audio.
This screen shot shown above demonstrates how we improved the quality of lighting. The screen shot below shows how the original lighting was way to bright, and distorted the shot. We changed this by getting rid of the bright lights when filming, and just used the natural lighting. We filmed a lot earlier so that we wouldn't have to use extra lighting, and could just work with what we had. We tried editing the lighting on premier, but it just looked grainy and not very profesional.
