evaluation question 4
People in the age range of 13-25 watch teen movies because some have mild adult themes such as drugs, violence, sex and crude humour
however there are also romantic or animated teen movies which appeals to the
younger audiences, this audience will be interested in our film, the reason for this is because of our unique selling point, my films sub genre is romance,drama and action
one film which consists of these is the movie twilight

twilight-genre:romance,action drama |
There are many stereotypes that are
included in teen films, this makes it much easier for film makers to make the
film successful, another main reason for this is it relates to the target
audience which the majority of the audience are teenagers.

A popular male This character is one of
the first to be introduced in teen movies, they are normally a tall, hunky.
And an unpopular female in which the
male falls in love with,my film followed this convention

evaluation question 5
i believe the main aspects which appealed to our audience is the way in which both characters were displayed onto the screen joined by the use of editing, my intentions when making the film was to display the characters backgrounds simply and effectively through things such as edititng, music , acting and pictures.
another aspect which attracted our audiences was the music and the use of voiceover, the reason why i used the voiceover was to guide the viewer through the film and enlighten them about the lifestyle of our male character.
finally the audience also mentioned how the genre romance was interpreted and shown, a simple and effective idea which i used was a shot which was zoomed in on both characters eyes facing each other, this instantly made the viewer aware of the attraction between the characters
this is a video with feedback from audience

Final changes made to editing
After we finished editing our rough cut we realised that there were some sligth errrors. These issues were:
- Audio was out of sync
- Obstruction of characters
- mis en scene misplacement(tripod was in one of the shots)
- there was excessive headroom during the males scene
- the music did not play at the right times

Production and Distribution unfinished
Production company
Produciton companies are significant in the way they provide a foundation of which the film is built upon. The company which we have chosen to use as our producer are Working Title Films. They are a production company who focus on independant filming and have helped produce many films such as Love Actually and Atonement. As you can see these films are related to ours in terms of thier genre and target audience. They mainly focus on the younger generation as we do too and include genre such as drama and romance which our film is strongly influenced by. I believe they would also choose to produce our film as they would be interested in what we have to offer in terms on content. Our film has some qualities which are also used in films which the company has produced and a meaning behind the production which tries to teach morals.
Distribution company
The distributer is the force which is in charge of marketing the film. The distribution company that we have chosen to use is Studio Canal. It is one of Europe’s leading companies in the market for co-production, acquisition, distribution and sale of international feature films. They are an ideal distribution company in regards to our film. Furthermore, seeing as our movie is independent and based in the british region with the target audience being british, it is an ideal company to go with as we will be able to easily reach out to our target audience. They have produced movies such as Johnny English which makes it a suitable and viable distributor. They even offer an extension of our target audience, if we wanted to go further than only marketing our film to a british audience we would have to opportunity to expand on this as they have links with Universal Studios which would allow for expansion.
The combination of the two would make for successful marketing as they both fit perfectly into what our film is expressing and the type of audience we want as viewers of our film

intro for my film adding the cast and idents and the edit type
i decided to use motion for the mac to make my animated production ident, distribution ident and film title.
i then thought it would be better if the cast names came up duiring the opening of the film as it plays.
i will use the splash edit for the title sequence which is a blend of the colours black and white, the visuals consist of splashes which are similar to splashed paint or blood.
the edit for the production ident is the skyline edit, this consists of outlines of buildings moving, in the colours black, grey and red, the reason i used this was because our film is based in urban london and the production company is likely to be london based, it represents areas of society which live in london.
finally the edit i will use for the distribution title is called basic white open, this consists of different coloured blocks moving across the screen and then the white text appears in a rectangle with small pictures in it.

Behind the scenes editing (AUDIO)
After we finished editing the clips we then looked at adding a soundtrack. Two sound tracks were taken off sound cloud which were copy right free. We found both songs by using creative commons.
The soundtrack which was used for the female character was called 'Out Of Reach'
There was one which we used for the male character which was called ' The Black Keys
- Lonely Boy'
We next added a voiceover which was done by Youssof Mallah and was added ontop of the video which showed the journey of the male character.
We further synced the clips with the audio making the sound and movements and transitions within the clips and made the song fade in and out to make sure it doesn't disturb with the voiceover.

Behind the scenes editing (VIDEO) unfinished
When we first started our editing we imported all the clips into final cut pro.
Next we had to cut the clips as some clips contained content that we did not need, also the clips needed to be shortened to make the opening seem less prolonged and more interesting.
We further put the clips together and used match cutting
.
Towards the end of our editing we decided to add pictures to the opening in order to highlight the character lifestyles and events which took place prior to now.
This is the final result of our editing.
