My presentation 18
An action film features heroes facing physical challenges and threats to their lives from villains or perilous situations, which they ultimately overcome. An adventure film is similar but uses action scenes to showcase exotic locations in an energetic way. A typical action/adventure film trailer includes explosions, crashes, fires, panicked crowds, and fast-paced music to build excitement. Producing a high quality action film trailer would be difficult without access to professional editing software and large casts, stunt teams, and medical support.
Companies that produce/distribute horror films
Lionsgate films, Blumhouse Productions, and Dark Castle Entertainment are three major production companies that produce and distribute popular horror films. The document also lists several other companies like Bendersprink, Circle of Confusion, Ghost House Pictures, Twisted Pictures, and Rogue Pictures that are involved in the horror film genre through production and distribution.
Metaphor criticism
The document discusses metaphoric criticism and how it can be used to analyze artifacts like movies. Metaphoric criticism involves isolating metaphors used in a work, analyzing their frequency and intensity, and using them to discover an explanation or interpretation of the work. As an example, the document analyzes the movie Top Gun and suggests through metaphor analysis that the movie could be interpreted as being about a man struggling with his sexual identity and exploring both heterosexual and homosexual desires through its use of action movie genre and homoerotic dialogue.
Representation and Star Appeal
This document discusses representation and star appeal in media studies. It provides objectives and topics that will be covered, including different methods of representation (age, gender, race, etc.), their positive and negative implications, and why star appeal is important for movies. Students will analyze images and film clips to identify various representations and how they can impact different audiences. Key points are made about who is being represented, their purpose, and how the intended audience affects a film. Famous movie stars are discussed as bankable assets whose appeal can influence a film's financial success.
Extended project Sven

The next steps are to research more similar films, develop the narrative and story, and determine the experimental shooting style.
Suicide squad trailer
The document summarizes a trailer for the film Suicide Squad. It focuses on supervillains recruited by the government for a dangerous mission. The trailer is effective due to its dark tone, emphasis on characters like Joker and Harley Quinn, and connections to the DC universe. It was aimed at comic fans and the general public, and was shown at Comic Con in 2015 to help promote the August 2016 release of the film.
Question 4
The document discusses the target audience for a post-apocalyptic film. It notes that the stereotypical audience is middle-aged men from the northwest or south. It aims to attract this audience through showing the male gaze and powerful male characters. However, it also includes a strong female lead to appeal to feminist fans. The film attracts the typical male audience through a relatable plot while also pleasing fans and non-fans through its exploration of humanity's struggle.
Dracula untold individual film research 4
The document describes a movie or story about a protagonist who transforms into a vampire after drinking the blood of another vampire in order to gain powers to defeat his human enemies. As a vampire, he has increased strength and abilities like teleportation and controlling bats, but is vulnerable to sunlight and silver which can burn his skin. The protagonist must resist drinking human blood for three days to turn back into a human, otherwise he will be a vampire forever, creating an internal struggle.

Media presentation - task 3
A film distribution company or individual is responsible for marketing and selling a film. They decide the release date and methods of viewing.

Lionsgate Films and Film4 Productions are considered as they have experience distributing horror and low-budget films. While Lionsgate has been successful with horror franchises, their American base puts the author at a disadvantage. Film4 specializes in drama but has also distributed some horror films, and they often work with low budgets. Warner Bros is rejected due to only distributing big-budget blockbusters, which does not match the author's smaller-scale project. Lionsgate and Film4 are deemed the most suitable options due to their experience with similar genres and budgets.
Presentation1
This document presents answers to evaluation questions about a student media project.
1) The student's thriller opening uses conventions from professional thrillers like suspense to build anticipation about what an antagonist will do for revenge. It also uses techniques like point-of-view shots that are seen in real thriller films.
2) The short film only included 3 black characters - a "thug" antagonist, and protagonist and antagonist portrayed as typical black teenagers. This could perpetuate stereotypes about black people being violent.
3) Allowing a major studio to distribute the film could lead to worldwide promotion and increased profits since films with similar storylines that are distributed widely tend to do well financially.
4) The
Fmp research
Harry Morton conducted research on existing horror films to inform his own project. He analyzed films like Friday the 13th Part 2, Halloween, Nightmare on Elm Street, and Scream. Common features included suburban settings and teenage protagonists. He will include camera angles and locations in his own work. His audience research found his target audience is male, aged 16-20, who like supernatural horror and tension/scares but dislike stupid character decisions. Interviews supported using varied shots, interesting villains, and building tension over jump scares.
Pitch
The document outlines the plot, characters, and production details of the film "Wraith". It describes the film's plot structure, characters (a male protagonist and female antagonist), and genres (action). Production details discussed include the target 15 certificate rating, conventions of action films like dynamic shots and predictable plots, inspiration from car chase videos, and a budget of £15-20 million. Key roles for the film's production are also listed.
Evaluation 3
This document evaluates what kind of media institution might distribute a horror film media product. It suggests that a major film studio like Paramount Pictures would be a good fit as a distributor, as they have successfully distributed similar paranormal genre films like Paranormal Activity. National Lottery funding through the British Film Institute could also potentially provide financing for the film. Influential horror films that provide inspiration for creating suspense and tension include I Know What You Did Last Summer and Paranormal Activity.
Short film 2
The document discusses short films and provides examples of two short films created with limited budgets. Film Riot created "Losses" with a $200 budget by using friends and family as actors over 12 hours of filming across 4 days. The CGBros created the CGI film "Shifter" with a larger budget that allowed for more advanced technology. Effective strategies for short films discussed are keeping them under 10 minutes, focusing on a simple storyline, choreographing fight scenes, and starting with an engaging opening shot.

The document discusses different script formats used in film and television production. It analyzes the format of a master scene script for the Spiderman film, which uses slug lines to indicate exterior/interior scenes and location.

Finally, it examines the conventions of radio scripts, which rely more heavily on dialogue and include cues for sound effects to be added later in production.
