Sin City benefited from having Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez as directors who used innovative filming techniques. It also had big name actors like Jessica Alba.

Working titles
Working Titles was founded in 1983 and produced films independently until partnering with Polygram in 1992. This partnership helped Working Titles grow and find success producing films for Universal. Universal's involvement helped Working Titles appeal to American audiences through adaptations that included American elements, leading to much higher domestic box office gross in the US. Key figures like Richard Curtis and recurring actors like Hugh Grant were also important to Working Titles' popular romantic comedies that targeted female audiences. When distributing films in the US, modifications were sometimes made to marketing, like alternative posters that focused less on British stars and more on storylines, to appeal to American audiences.
Media AS-LEVEL powerpoint on inception
The document analyzes the 2010 film Inception from the perspectives of its institution, audience, genres, and production process. It discusses that the film was produced by Legendary Pictures and Syncopy Films. The target audience was teens and young adults interested in confusing sci-fi action movies.

Inderpent film companies
This document summarizes information about several independent film production and distribution companies and compares them to major Hollywood studios ("Big 6"). It provides backgrounds on Film4, BBC Films, Imagine Entertainment, Miramax, and Village Roadshow Pictures, including founding years and examples of recent films.

However, there are exceptions like The Lego Movie that found success in cinemas. A comparison of Kindergarten Cop 2 and Finding Dory shows the difference in budgets and box office returns between an independent and major studio film.
Evaluation Question 3

The described film is similar to the low budget, independently produced British comedy horror Sightseers.

This document discusses key aspects of film marketing and distribution. It begins by explaining that distributors must identify a film's unique selling point to appeal to audiences. They will emphasize elements like stars, special effects, or the director. The distributor then decides how to position the film in promotional materials like posters and trailers. Marketing is crucial, and can involve techniques such as posters, trailers, online content, screenings, interviews, merchandise, and film festivals. An effective marketing strategy is important to maximize a film's commercial success.

- Marketing is important for a film's success and involves activities like trailers, posters, websites, talk show appearances, and red carpet events. However, films are generally more successful in America due to its larger market and higher marketing budgets.
LO2 Genre Assignment
The document discusses synergy within the film industry. It provides examples of how synergy is achieved through product placement, tie-ins, spin-offs, and utilizing existing intellectual property from other markets. Product placement, tie-ins, and spin-offs are common ways for film studios and brands to work together across multiple revenue streams. Synergy allows companies to maximize profits from a single film property.
Researching methods and techniques
The document discusses the target audience and methods of marketing for an upcoming James Bond film.
The target audience is primarily male fans of previous Bond films aged 15 and over, as well as some female fans both young and old. Elements like James Bond's car, alcohol product placements, and film ratings help define and attract different parts of the target demographic.
Common methods of James Bond film marketing discussed include premieres in Los Angeles and London, global theatrical release, licensed product partnerships, and constant media attention around each new release to build excitement and maintain a large fan base over time.
Institutional research.pptx
This document analyzes and compares three potential UK film distributors - StudioCanal, Soda Pictures, and Vertigo Films - for a small independent British production company. StudioCanal is selected as they have experience working with small British companies and distributing films both domestically and internationally. While Soda Pictures and Vertigo Films have strengths, StudioCanal is deemed the best partner due to its size, experience, and track record of successfully distributing similar independent and British films.
Section B Essay
The document discusses the debate around whether global or national film institutions dominate audiences. It notes that global companies like Warner Bros. dominate due to larger budgets, famous actors, and extensive marketing. In contrast, national British companies like Thin Man Films struggle with smaller budgets. As a result, British actors often move to Hollywood for larger paychecks. However, the document argues that national films have greater artistic quality due to more creative storylines out of necessity. While global films are more financially successful, national films make important contributions and can launch careers through lower budget productions with strong scripts.
Research lo2
The document discusses the target audience, genre, countries of exhibition, and production campaigns for the James Bond film Skyfall. The target audience is primarily older viewers who enjoy spy/action films, though younger audiences interested in games like Call of Duty are also potential viewers. Skyfall follows the spy genre with modern twists, and will premiere in Los Angeles, Paris, and London. EON Productions, the company behind the Bond films, effectively markets each new installment using techniques proven on past titles.
Researching methods and techniques
The document discusses marketing strategies for James Bond films and other action movies. It analyzes how Bond films target audiences in their 20s-40s, especially males, and use product placements. Other discussed marketing techniques include premiering in multiple cities, viral games to promote films like Bourne, and using trailers or actors to generate buzz. The document also outlines the genre of Bond films as action and the production company Eon Productions.
Celador
Celador is a small British film production company founded in 1989 that is best known for producing the successful TV quiz show "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?". Some of Celador's most successful films include Dirty Pretty Things, Slumdog Millionaire, and The Descent. While Celador operates on a project-by-project basis with freelance staff, it has been able to fund productions through profits from prior films and TV shows. Though a smaller producer than major studios like Sony Pictures, Celador has found commercial success with lower-budget films that earn substantial profits.
UK Film Distribution For Our Film
Slide share of what the UK film distribution industry is, how it works and what company I would ideally have to distribute my AS media film.
Evaluation Question 3
Entertainment Film Distributors would be the most suitable company to distribute the author's movie. As a UK-based independent film distributor specializing in horror genres, they have successfully distributed many low-budget British and international horror films. In contrast, companies like Warner Bros. and Lionsgate focus more on larger-budget Hollywood productions. Fox Searchlight and Momentum Pictures were also considered but Entertainment Film Distributors is the clear best choice given their experience and focus on independent horror films.
Mainstream, independent and niche film
This document compares and contrasts mainstream, independent, and niche films. Mainstream films typically have well-known directors, major stars, larger budgets that allow for sequels and widespread marketing. Independent films have lesser-known directors and casts, more modest budgets, and marketing primarily to select audiences. Niche films target very specific interests and have small cult followings. Examples discussed are Fast and Furious 7 as a mainstream blockbuster, Juno as an independent sleeper hit, and the infamous niche flop Foodfight! with its troubled production and minimal financial returns.
Q3: What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
Vertigo Films is an independent film production and distribution company established in 2002 by Allan Niblo and James Richardson. It has produced over 50 films across various genres including horror, crime/drama, sci-fi, and romance. Notable films include The Sweeney, Monsters, and StreetDance 3D. While starting with gritty urban films, Vertigo has expanded its genres over 14 years to stay relevant in the market. It benefits from home video sales, with over 50% of revenue from DVD sales. Vertigo also supports new filmmakers through an annual competition.
Researching methods and Techniques
The document discusses the target audience, genre, production companies, and methods of marketing for the upcoming James Bond film.
The target audience is primarily male fans of previous Bond films aged 15 and over, as well as some female fans both young and old. The genre is action/adventure/thriller following Bond formula.
Eon Productions, based in London and Pinewood Studios, will produce as they have all previous Bond films. Common marketing methods analyzed for Bond and other action films include trailers, tie-ins with products (e.g. Aston Martin), and promoting films using star actors.
Institution
- The main audience for movies are those aged 16-24, though box office numbers do not typically include tickets for those under 15.
- Cinemas make most of their money from food and drink sales, not ticket sales, since concessions have high profit margins. Popcorn in particular is very popular and profitable.
- To get a new film into cinemas, distributors work to distribute films to theaters. Smaller films may try to convince cinemas directly to screen their movie.
Institutions high budget vs low budget
This is my media work for AS. It is a comparison between two films; one high budgeted and one low budgeted.
Institutions high budget vs low budget
The document compares high budget film institutions Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures and Marvel Studios to the low budget film institution ThinkFilm. Walt Disney and Marvel are well established in California and produce big budget blockbuster films with budgets over $200 million, while ThinkFilm had a much smaller budget of only $7,000 for the film Primer. Walt Disney and Marvel films like Iron Man 3 were very successful, grossing over $1 billion total, while ThinkFilm's films were much less successful and the company eventually declared bankruptcy. The document argues Walt Disney and Marvel's success is due to appealing to broad audiences through genres like action and comedy and focusing on attracting all ages, while ThinkFilm's lower budgets and focus on specific genres limited their

Youth gender etc
This document discusses Richard Dyer's star theory and how youth, gender, and ethnicity are represented in indie music videos. It explains that stars are constructed through marketing rather than reflecting the real person. For example, Miley Cyrus' star persona differs from who she is privately. It also notes that stars are made into commodities to generate profit, and this leads record labels to produce similar stars. Gender representation in music videos often depicts a male gaze and women as objects. Ethnicity of stars can influence fans' views, and portrayals sometimes rely on stereotypes that may not accurately represent a group.
Weather research brad
The document discusses planning the filming of an indie music video to achieve specific lighting effects. It states that footage will be filmed from 3:20-5:20pm and 9-11am to capture differences in low and high key lighting. It also notes that these dates of December 2nd and 28th are forecast to be clear and sunny, allowing the desired lighting to be achieved. An example video by The 1975 is discussed, noting how weather is reflected through the girls' contrasting outfits.
Mise en scene t a
The music video for "Hail to the King" by Avenged Sevenfold uses black and white film and medieval imagery and symbols to set a dark, ominous tone. Shots include a skull emerging from clouds, the band playing their instruments, close-ups of tattoos and costumes, and quick flash shots of old paintings and the word "atone." The video has a narrative element of a crown being carried through a dead forest and placed on a figure, but the ending is strange as the figure is revealed to have a skull for a head. Overall, the video uses dark imagery, medieval symbols like crowns and swords, and references to the song lyrics to depict a theme relating to kings, death, and evil
Textual analysis genre
The document discusses several conventions of pop music videos including: including performance elements, fade effects and quick cuts. It analyzes Katy Perry's "Thinking of You" music video, noting it uses these conventions. The video tells a narrative story that reflects the song's lyrics about a couple separated by war. Camera angles focus closely on Perry's lips and eyes during emotional scenes. Costumes and mise-en-scene portray Perry as sexually desirable but the camera remains moderately voyeuristic to match the video's tragic tone.
Coldplay narrative
1) The music video for Coldplay's "The Scientist" tells a story in reverse order, beginning with Chris Martin lying on a mattress and ending with a car crash that kills his female passenger.
2) Scenes show Chris Martin walking through various London locations, appearing ghostly in a white shirt, as the events seem to take place over night and lead towards the accident.
3) Filmed on location in London, the video uses natural lighting, close-ups of Chris Martin's emotional reactions, and long shots to give a sense of journey and disorientation for the audience experiencing the story backwards.
Band
This image of My Chemical Romance presents them as a typical rock band through the use of dark colors like black and red that connote danger and excitement associated with rock music. The band members are standing close together in front of a black brick wall, creating a sense of imprisonment and unity. They look directly at the camera to connect with their mainly male audience.
This image of The Wombats presents them as a typical pop indie band. Their long hair and bright colored clothing represent the indie and pop genres. Daytime lighting and a setting of the band in a car suggest their upbeat songs target a niche, young audience.
This image of Taylor Swift uses nature backgrounds and her natural, feminine appearance to represent her
Evaluation 1 advert
1. The advert uses conventions of real media products by depicting the artists in a romantic setting on a beach to appeal to their target audience of 16-25 year olds.
2. It challenges conventions by making the background black and white rather than colorful, possibly representing a secret or mystery about the artists. This retro style contrasts modern colorful indie pop ads.
3. The artists' name is in the middle of the image on their backs rather than at the top, making it more personal and posing the question of what they are hiding from their audience.
Sam smith representation textual analysis
The document analyzes representations in Sam Smith's music video for "Lay Me Down". It discusses several shots/frames from the video. The first frame shows Sam Smith at a church, appearing to say goodbye to a loved one at a coffin, creating suspense. Subsequent frames provide more context, suggesting it may be a funeral at first but then reveals it is depicting a same-sex marriage, juxtaposing church rules at the time. The analysis discusses the use of lighting, costumes, and other visual elements to represent meanings and themes of loss, spirituality, freedom and equality.
Props list
The document lists and describes various props that were used in a music video to portray the artists and genre in a specific way. It includes props like a ukulele to represent the indie movement, a picnic blanket and bench to symbolize the artists' secret love for each other and lifestyle, a shell to set the beach scene, and sunglasses to characterize the female artist's style. The props were chosen to align with the themes, settings, and target audience of the independent music video.

Questionnaire pie chart results
- The majority of people surveyed were female (67%) and aged 16-25 (67%), so the music video will primarily target this demographic.
- Pop (35%) and indie (34%) were the most popular genres, confirming the indie/pop concept. Elements of soul (15%) could also be included.
- Most people watch music videos everyday (42%) or 2-3 times a week (35%), so including relatable elements and vibrant colors will attract viewers.

- City (London) (27%) and outdoor (beach) (20%) locations were
Respondents answers to our questions focus group
The respondents provided feedback on an indie music video idea:
Nick liked the unique idea and preferred cut shots. Joe thought locations should match the mood and long shots tell stories. Tommy imagined the video in an autumn park and likes how long shots show a story developing. Tom also suggested a park and thought long shots allow the audience to understand the story better.
Description of your target audience
The document discusses planning for a music video for an indie/pop song aimed at a target audience of 16-25 year olds. Research found this age group prefers indie/pop music and engages strongly with it. The music video will feature both male and female artists to appeal to both genders equally within the target demographic. It will use themes of freedom and childhood innocence to transport viewers and draw on theories of utopianism through its bright colors and actors' happy facial expressions.
Music video pitch presentation
The document outlines a music video pitch for the song "Midnight Moon" by Oh Wonder. It discusses why this song was chosen over others considered for its indie genre and duo artists, allowing for more shot variation. Locations like a drama hall, park, and beach are proposed to represent the artists' freedom and eco-friendliness. Potential issues like weather, timing delays, and camera problems are also addressed. The pitch envisions combining performance, concept, and narrative elements in the final video.
Group name questionnaire results
The document discusses and analyzes potential group names for a musical duo: Altered Islands, Magnetic Visions, and Secret Collective. For each name, it lists possible meanings and connotations. It notes that Altered Islands suggests two different people or islands coming together and represents their differences. Magnetic Visions connotes two people with the same visions drawn together magnetically and also connotes love. Secret Collective implies a secret love between the two and collective unity. The document concludes that Altered Islands was chosen as the group name because it is unique, represents changing feelings for one another, and best suits their genre.

Comparison of a high budget film (carrie
- 3. The main institutions are that in May 2011, representatives from MGM and Screen Gems announced that the two companies were producing a film remake of Carrie which is based on a novel by Stephen King. It cost $30 million to produce the film. Sony estimated the revenue for the opening weekend of Carrie as between $16 million and $18 million. However, the final takings totalled $16,101,552 and the film was ranked at number 3 behind Gravity and Captain Philips, both of which were in their second and third weeks, respectively. It is the 67th highest-grossing film of 2013 in the United States. The production company is Misher Films. Misher Films aren’t really that well-known, although Carrie is the most popular/recent film they have produced. Other films Misher Films have produced are: Europa Report (2013),Playing for Keeps (2012), Mirror Mirror: The Untold Adventures of Snow White (2012),The Scorpion King 3, Battle for Redemption (2012) and It's Kind of a Funny Story (2010). The majority of these other films weren’t really successful although Mirror Mirror: The Untold Adventures of Snow White (2012) box office was $166,170,922. Where's Europa Reports (2013) box office was $125, 687.
- 4. The production company for 28 Days Later is DNA Films, the film was disturbed by 20th Century Fox (United Kingdom). £5,000,000 was used to produce the film. 28 Days Later was a considerable success at the box office and became highly profitable on a budget of about £5 million. In the UK, it took in £6.1 million, while in the US it became a surprise hit, taking over $45 million despite a limited release at fewer than 1,500 screens across the country. The film garnered around $82.7 million worldwide. DNA Films, aren’t really that well-known, although 28 Days Later was quite a popular film. Other films DNA Films have produced are: Sunshine on Leith (2013), Dredd (2012), Never Let Me Go (2010) and The History Books (2006). These films weren't really that successful as they were never really advertised that well. DNA Films have two films coming out in 2015, these are Far from the Madding Crowd and Ex Machina.
- 5. The ultimate difference between the two there budget. The process of writing/making/producing a film in both films is basically the same, as how you make them are the same. The difference is the creative freedom that comes with more money available for production. The more money you have means that you can attract bigger names to be in your film, not just the cast, but directors, composers etc. You also have a better budget for things like special effects and post production. Filming in certain locations can be very expensive and big budget films can spend more money to be able to shoot in expensive locations e.g. London and New York.
- 6. They both use special effects, although low-budget films don’t use no where near as many. They both use props, although low budget props may be rented/made on the cheap. Actors/actresses may appear in both
- 7. Misher Films are usually action/horror films, as they have the high budget to do the special effects needed. Action films are usually located in a high budget area e.g. New York. Misher Films produces action films are they have the necessary funds to set the film in good/well-known places/cities. DNA Films are a British based company and usually produces rom-coms/action comedy's. This is because comedies are relatively cheap to do as they don’t need to be set in fancy locations if the gags used are relatable/funny.
- 8. Both Misher Films and DNA Films appeal to teenagers and young adults worldwide as there films can be seen as relatable/suitable to their age groups. Most of their films produced are rated as a 15, although a few are rated as an 18, these films would appeal to young adults.
- 9. Personally, I believe that Misher Films outperforms DNA Films as they offer more films and genres, therefore catering for their audiences needs/wants more. Misher Films are also more famous than DNA Films are they high budget films are therefore attract the better actors/actresses.
