Assignment 9
Mainstream films are released widely in theaters and cinemas, with blockbuster examples like Skyfall targeting broad audiences interested in action or classic franchises. Independent films are produced outside major studios and distributed differently, such as the drama Boyhood which was released on DVD rather than in theaters, aiming for audiences interested in independent cinema as well as drama genres.
Assignment 9 pp
This document compares mainstream and independent horror films and their target audiences. Mainstream horror films are widely distributed in theaters and target audiences interested in technologically advanced films featuring demons and spirits. Independent horror films are produced outside of major studios and target audiences willing to watch low-budget films about haunted houses and possession, though some independent films can achieve wider release after recognition at film festivals.
Development of editing
The document discusses the evolution of film editing from early pioneers to modern directors. It describes how the Lumiere Brothers created the first public film screening in 1895 using their cinématographe camera. D.W. Griffith brought narrative and intertitles to films. Sergei Eisenstein developed montage techniques. David Fincher is known for his distinctive modern editing styles, as shown in a clip from Fight Club. The document concludes that editing styles have dramatically changed from early single-clip films due to advances in technology and software.

Evaluation - Question 3
The document discusses potential film distribution institutions for the thriller film "Captured". It analyzes why larger studios like Walt Disney, Warner Brothers, and Universal would not be suitable given the nature and target audience of the film. It considers Columbia Pictures as one major studio that may distribute thrillers but feels the film is too small. The document concludes that a smaller institution like Film 4 would be best to distribute "Captured" as they work with lower budget and new films.
Type of media institution
Hammer Film Productions is a UK-based film company established in 1934. They are best known for their Gothic horror films from the 1950s-1970s and have produced over 150 films. They would be well-suited to distribute the media product because they specialize in horror genres, which would blend well, and they are based in the UK, fitting the intended British market. Hammer Productions also publishes books and uploads videos to YouTube, allowing multiple avenues for publishing the media product and making them the top choice for distribution.
What institution would make your film
Universal was founded in the early 20th century by several individuals and is one of the oldest surviving film studios in the United States. It is a major film studio known for distributing action films and thrillers similar to the document's film, making it a potential fit to appeal to those audiences. Universal has also been creative with film marketing in the past, such as using social media platforms to promote Pitch Perfect 2. Film4 Productions is a British film company owned by Channel 4 that is known for producing small, low-budget films that go on to find great commercial success, making it a good potential fit for the document's small, first-time director film.
Distribution companies
The document discusses several major film distribution companies and evaluates them as potential partners to distribute a new horror film. It analyzes MGM, Paramount, 20th Century Fox, Universal Studios, and Lionsgate based on the type of horror films they have previously distributed, whether their focus is local or global audiences, and if they typically handle big blockbuster films or smaller niche titles. Based on this analysis, Lionsgate and Universal Studios are identified as good options because they distribute a variety of film sizes, including smaller niche titles similar to the one being considered.

He later saves a man from a bomb and the plot develops from there. It discusses casting major stars in lead roles and allocating large portions of the budget to effects and marketing, including advertising during the Super Bowl. Theories of film audiences and narratives are also examined, including uses and gratification theory, the hypodermic needle effect, and analyses from Propp, Levi, Barthes and others.
Evaluation Question 3
The document discusses a horror film called "Die-ary" about an author who can kill people by writing their deaths in his diary. It also mentions three young adults who will be the author's next victims. It discusses the film Cabin in the Woods as inspiration for including horror stereotypes. It then considers several potential film studios and distributors for the project, including Twisted Pictures, Universal Studios, and Hammer Film Productions, ultimately selecting Hammer as the best choice due to its UK-based horror focus and multiple publication platforms.
Question 3
The document discusses potential film distributors for a paranormal horror film called "The Hellion". It analyzes several major distributors: Paramount Pictures, Warner Bros, Lionsgate, 20th Century Fox, Universal Pictures, and Netflix. Warner Bros is identified as the best choice since it has experience distributing similar successful paranormal horror films like "The Conjuring". Netflix is also considered a good option given its large audience reach and success distributing low-budget and horror films. In the end, the document concludes that Warner Bros would help the film attract the right viewers given their experience with the genre.

Evaluation Question
Christian is an author who can kill people by writing their deaths in his diary. His latest story involves three young adults on a holiday in the woods who will become his next victims. The film "Cabin in the Woods" inspired the film's use of horror tropes like the jock, geek, stoner and innocent characters. While Twisted Pictures and Universal Studios would be suitable due to their horror films, they are American companies, so Hammer Film Productions is the best choice as a UK-based company that specializes in horror.

Distribution and our fim
The document discusses film distribution and marketing strategies for a psychological thriller film. It notes that similar successful films like Gone Girl, Before I Go To Sleep, and Girl On The Train were distributed by major companies like 20th Century Fox, Universal Pictures, and others. Given the similarities between those films and their own, the authors believe their film could also be distributed by a major company to reach a wide international audience. They plan to build buzz around the film's release through teaser trailers and marketing across different platforms and demographics.

Warner Bros. and Legendary are famous for distributing a wide range of genres, especially action films similar to the media product, and their credit clips are included in the film's opening sequence to showcase them as the distributors.
How did you attract/address your audience?
The document discusses how the creator attracted and addressed their audience for a film project in 5 sections. They targeted specific social groups like age and ethnicity to appeal to a wide audience. Social media platforms were used to promote the film for free through sharing and likes. Psychological thriller codes and conventions were followed to attract fans of that genre while linking to horror. An original plot with a twist was aimed at drawing a large crowd. Shooting in London also attracted local audience interest similar to blockbuster movies filmed there.

5th LF Energy Power Grid Model Meet-up Slides
5th Power Grid Model Meet-up
It is with great pleasure that we extend to you an invitation to the 5th Power Grid Model Meet-up, scheduled for 6th June 2024. This event will adopt a hybrid format, allowing participants to join us either through an online Mircosoft Teams session or in person at TU/e located at Den Dolech 2, Eindhoven, Netherlands. The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
