Film Distribution

Self made films have various distribution methods to get there films some attention and exposure. Some of these methods include:   Bidding War at a film festival  This can be helpful for small and independent film makers as film festivals as they will gain and attract potential buyers and interest. Bidding war can take place at the end of the festival and films could go on auction and could offer a full buy out of the film. However this is rather uncommon and rare as the film would have to be at the best quality and one of a kind. They also being used less and less, as it is something of the past. They are quite hard to achieve and are quite uncommon not making it a suitable option of distribution for our film.  An example of this was the film called " A Thousand and One" that was played at the most recent Sundance film festival. The film company called Focus Features have distributed it, and the movie is about to enter  the movie America on the 31st of March.         2.  Sel

Preliminary Task 1 Treatment

Image
Treatment ( Hope) A Treatment for: Tyrant Prepared by sensational studios It will be proposed that our film will be 1:30-2 minuets long and will be filming on site, as it is easily assessable to all our crew and cast. We are also planning on filming a part on the elevator which will be accessible to us on site.   This film will consist of the following conventions: Suspense  Our film Tyrant strongly includes an element of suspense as we try to keep audience on their toes from the get go. As we open our short film with blackness and diegetic sounds, the audience is left questioning what is happening and therefore is engaged and gripped to the rest of the film. This suspense is created via a fast paced beginning, and then cuts to a more slow and mysterious vibe, still maintaining the suspense all the way through. Iconography Symbolisms is used in our film Tyrant, as the victim looks for a way to end his daily torture and pain, continuously provided by his tormentors. It is interesting ho

Brainstorm and Allocations Planning - Preliminary Task 1

Image
  Brainstorm: This is our original brainstorm for our film opening 'Tyrant." It was created by all four members of 'Sensational Studios' and is the basis of all our planning and preparation for the creation of the film.  Allocations Planning: We created this 'Team Allocations' sheet to ensure that everything required gets done and that everyone is doing an even amount of work, and working to their strengths and abilities. We regularly check this sheet to see how much still needs to be done and to make sure that nothing has been skipped over. I have taken on the responsibility of completing the treatment, and Chanilize has taken on the task of completing the concept.

Opening Sequences

What is the purpose of an opening sequence?  They are shown at the start of a movie to list the most important cast and crew involved in the production of the film. It also helps set the scene and almost gives clues as to what the film consists of and what is to come.    It sets the scene of the overall movie, and can be presented via a establishing shot to display to the audience where they are in the films' world. Abstract openings however, doesn't give away much about the setting of the scene but rather focuses on the themes and tones of the film.  What is the difference between an opening credits and a title sequence? The difference is that a title sequence is is separated from the main action of the film. Opening credits consist of key information like the film director, cinematographer, lead actors ect. However tile sequences creatively capture the essence of the film. What  techniques  can be employed in an opening sequence? 2D style graphics in 3D environments/Kaleidosc
