PRODUCT AND WHY?
By elliot kinkead
2. Why is it important to identify and choose the
correct institution to create and distribute a
film?
When we originally started looking for an media institution, we needed a company
that was experience in making an thrillers as well as being highly rated.There are
many factors that needed to be considered when choosing and institution .
Examples of Popular Media institution
s.
3. Genre
The company that we are choosing must have previous experience in making
thrillers.The reason why is because if an institution is inexperience, in making
thrillers the film may fail because the company was inexperience and therefore may
not have experience in making thrillers since they would be focusing on other
genres.This is important to help achieve film the goal.
4. Reputation.
If you used an company that was more experienced making thriller’s, more people
would watch the film. Since that the reputation is an important factor for the
audience when choosing the film at the cinema, it’s really important to choose a
company that people would know and who has a good reputation of making films.
So that they audience experience have been consistence and at institution current
standards when they produce the film.
5. Audience
The company must be able to produce the film and market the film to the general
public. Most popular production companies would have loyal audiences since they
have been around for some time and they have made popular films which their
audiences like. So the film must be able to market the film to over 15s.The film
target audience is for teenagers and young audience since the genre appeal to these
age groups. Its therefore vital that production company we are planning to use
knows the target audience and that they know what they need to do with the film
and help target our main audience. Also the audience may have an expectation of
that particular production company and institution.Therefore the film will be at
produce their level expectations for their audiences.
6. Who's the institution that we are
planning to distribute the product.
After me and my group researching different production
companies and looking at their benefits and drawbacks of the
productions company.The media instruction that we are planning
to use in our films is Dimension Films. Dimensions film has
experience in making thriller films.The notable films would be
scream series and Halloween.This was one of the films that
inspired us to make this film. Dimension films have years of
experience of producing thriller films since they have produced
many thrillers. They have produced pshyclogiclal and mystery films
that have been highly rated and which are the themes of our films.
At the beginning part of the film we used examples from scream.
Like the teenager aspect of the film as well as making popcorn.
7. Who's the institution that we are planning to
distribute the product. (continued)
This was used because it created a feeling of safety and security since
most audiences would think that homes were an place security
however in our case and thriller case it wasn’t.The use of teenagers
was because the target audience was young adults and teenagers and
that we need the characters be relatable to teenagers. We have chosen
this company because of their reputation as well as the popularity of
this company.Therefore we know that when the film is ready it would
be marketed towards our target audience which is Over 15s. Moreover
due to the success of the scream and Halloween franchises which re-
watched time and again it could help make the film popular because of
their previous success.
8. Compare your thriller to existing thrillers
made by this institution.
Dimension Films also `made Scream and Halloween which are films that inspired us
with our film. Our plot involves a key character dying early on in the story, like in
both films.The use of young characters is another similarly with all of the films
because our films uses young adults throughout the storyline as well as scream and
Halloween, In terms of both victims, antagonists and Protagonists. Furthermore
film uses conventional techniques which is seen in Halloween and scream including
hiding the identify of the antagonist until towards the end of the film.
9. What benefits will choosing this
institution have on your media product?
The main benefits of choosing dimension films. would be they had years of
experience in making thrillers, as well as making high quality and highly rated. in
addition resulting in a loyal audience as well as they have an good marketing team.
This means that our film can be marketed to an wide range of people as well as to
our targeted audience. Another benefit would be that the film could end up as an
franchise because of their history when it came to making films.This meant that we
may see the return of the film at an later date. All of these would benefit our media
product since it would be able to get an audience for people to watch the thriller
since were using an popular and well known production company and not an indie
company which some people may not of heard off.
