The document analyzes the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) of a film project. Some key strengths are that the film has a unique story told without dialogue through descriptive shots and sound effects. Weaknesses include that a dance clip may drag on and bore the audience, and the ending may confuse viewers. Opportunities exist to experiment with editing techniques and potentially film in a new location with different equipment. Threats include potential issues like a location cancellation, actor drop-outs, running out of time, or forgetting to purchase needed equipment or props.

Question 1
Kyran Wright researched conventions of short films by watching many examples on YouTube. Most used basic equipment with few locations and fell into drama genres for niche audiences. Voiceovers often provided context. For their film, Wright challenged conventions by using music instead of dialogue to portray mental disorders, with changing music styles to represent each one. Camera work focused on close-ups of emotion rather than complex shots. Editing used invisible transitions to seem professional. The film featured multiple characters rather than the typical 2-3 and sought to educate rather than solely entertain audiences.

Question 1 evaluation media
The opening sequence of the film conforms to many comedy film conventions but also has its own unique tone. It introduces the three main characters to allow the audience to understand their roles. It includes dialogue after the first minute to establish each character's personality.

Assignment 1 powerpoint defenitions
David Bordwell is a successful film theorist and historian who earned his PhD from the University of Iowa in 1974. He has written over 15 volumes on cinema, notably collaborating with his wife Christine Thompson on books about film art and history. A narrative structure in film traditionally has a beginning, middle, and end, though some films challenge this by placing events out of order, like Pulp Fiction. Plots can be linear, running chronologically from start to finish, or nonlinear, unfolding events in a non-chronological sequence to increase intrigue.

Evaluation of script (1)
My client was pleased with the 3 meetings we had to discuss the project. I made improvements to my script such as capitalizing all names and including timing details for scenes. My client liked the dialogue and flow of the story, though no dislikes were mentioned. I believe I met the needs and expectations of my client by creating a short film script between 5-15 minutes targeted towards teens to encourage them to pursue their passions. The script provides details to guide actors and the film crew without being too childish. It follows a silent film format and meets ethical standards for a PG rating. Overall, the script matches my vision and includes the necessary details to film as planned.

The Evolution and Impact of OTT Platforms: A Deep Dive into the Future of Ent...
This presentation provides a thorough examination of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms, focusing on their development and substantial influence on the entertainment industry, with a particular emphasis on the Indian market.We begin with an introduction to OTT platforms, defining them as streaming services that deliver content directly over the internet, bypassing traditional broadcast channels. These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.

https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
