Production process

 Throughout this production process, not many types of technology were used. Since our cameras never came in, we had to be creative and use whatever we had. In the group i was in we simply used our phones to film and our computer to edit the shots to our liking. This was not really hard since the quality came out perfect and so did our shots. I personally learned that lighting plays an extremely important role in making a quality production. The lighting where he had to film was relatively dark, so we had to use certain camera angles to make the lighting a little bit brighter. The shot types that were used also had an effect on what the lighting would look like. In order to use our equipment properly, I had to watch dozens on top of dozens of videos to make sure that we produce a quality piece. These videos explained how to use the camera, how to edit, even how to hold the phone. These videos were actually a lot of help and I am very glad that I did watch them. I asked my teacher how it would be and what would be the apropos way of doing everything. She gave me certain pointer on how to film and some of the shots that correlate with the type of genre that I am doing. Overall this was a really fun project to do with my teammates and cast members.

Decision

What kind of movie am I trying to make? I want to make a drama/ comedic movie that teenagers can relate to. Movies such as mean girls where the new girl wants to fit in with the more popular girls. This happens all the time in real life, especially in high school. Or just like the 2010 movie street dreams about a teen who goes through many hardships in his life and tries to go pro in skating. Although that's not what his parents want him to do, he does it anyways since that's what he enjoys that. As a teenager your parents may want you to be a doctor, engineer, architect, or something that just makes a lot of money. Even though you may want to do something else, you feel as if you must obey your parents, which is what is happening in this movie. As I said earlier my intended audience will be teenagers because I am making something that they can relate to. I will get them to see this movie by producing something that grabs their attention. Such as leaving a cliff hanger in the b...

Case study

 This case study was a rough and vigorous task since it was very hard to retain information. The 5 parts of the case study (History/target audience, production, distribution,  marketing, cross media convergence and synergy) all of these parts make up a case study. How did I do this? Well first you get the film of your choice that relates to the genre you are doing, I chose the classic film "Mean girls" After that you start dong research on all 5 of those topics. You may be able to find a couple blogs relating on how to do and find these very few parts. But make sure your websites are credential and legit. You do not want to be using websites such as Wikipedia to gain information. This websites information can be altered by anyone who chooses to do so. Once I retained all the information from my research, I started to form my case study. You can either do a power point, word document, or a video. I chose to do a PowerPoint since it is easier to divide those 5 topics. Then you ...
 Say if me and my team are successful in convincing the production company of your choice to endorse your film. But how can you " sell" you film and make back everyone's money plus a little bit more. This is a great question to ask yourself. Well first you have to start promoting your film, you can not just drop a film without promoting . No one will know about your film if you do not promote it. The way Netflix promotes things is very unique. Say they are trying to promote a new movie coming out soon, they will put it on every single platform they can. Platforms such as Instagram, YouTube, and even Spotify. And you see or hear that ad every single time you open one of those platforms and eventually give in. With all of this promoting I am 100 percent certain that people would want to see it and share with friends and family. And with those techniques I am able to make my investors money back and even more than that. Now comes in the distribution companies. Companies such...
