2. For our film we decided to represent a small
budget production company, we would want
a maximum budget of about £1 million.
3. We decided to be a low budget production
company through mainly our storyline. Our
storyline does not require a great amount of
money to achieve an effective and successful
film.
4. Through research we have discovered films
that have all been shot with low budgets, that
have become a great success. Such films that
we researched were films like John Carpenters
‘Halloween’ and ‘The blair witch project’ and
of course our main film idol ‘Paranormal
activity’ which was created for a tiny budget
of just £15,000.
5. Paranormal Activity’s success made us realise
that because the budget was so low, the
audience seemed to feel a relation to the film
and it seemed more realistic, a great amount
of fear can be created due to the audience.
6. The distributor that we chose to deliver our
film was Film 4 Productions, this is a UK
based company associated with channel 4.
Over the years they have produced many
different films both medium and low budget.
We decided that our distributer would be
Film 4 productions as they have produced
many low budget successful films for
example ‘Attack the block’, and we could
imagine our film becoming a great success
with them.
7. In our film we have named the 3 main
actors, Mark Mulcahy, Danielle Robert and
Helen Mulcahy. all of these are not big names
and are all new actors.
Because of this we decided to put all three of
their names after the film title throughout the
first 2 minutes.
8. TMC is an independent production company
who employs unknown actors creating low
budget films in the hope of having great
success and maximising profit.
