Marketing

I created an Instagram to market my film, its address is 'patternsfilm18'. In the long term plan of the media account, I would aim to post teasers and trailers to engage my audience and keep them informed. I felt that Instagram would be the most suitable media platform as it is easily accessible and the act of hashtags and following features allow you to reach a wider audience. 


The poster is simple and stylistic; use of the diamond technique through the tie draws the audiences eye to the fine print credits, and a finger subtly points to the title.

Evaluation Seven: Progression

Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to full product? Planning. My preliminary task was painfully unplanned, and it was blatantly obvious. I'm a perfectionist, and it killed me to submit that video under my name. But my poor time management forced it through and I have no-one but myself to blame.  Besides learning to understand the importance of time management and how extensive planning aids projects significantly; I learnt a number of cinematic skills in progression from my preliminary- how to reduce white noise and background sound, how to enhance lighting features, how to follow the 180 degree rule accurately. I.e. not placing my character directly against the wall so it becomes virtually impossible to carry out an over the shoulder shot. Exhibit A:  But rather allowing plenty of access to the characters blind spots to get the best angles for different shots and therefore different meanings and impacts...

Evaluation-Marking

1) Well written. Some good points about conventions. Good on introduction of character. Not sure about mix of shot types point 2) Good stuff on the white male  and demonisation of mental illness. Women as victims? 3) ' freedom with the control of the films running' I think this is a good point but it needed a little more explanation 4 ' cultural capital of audiences'??? Again a good point I think but you've over-complicated. 5) Some evidence of an understanding of marketing but more explanation would have been better. 6) Fairly basic points but covered all 7) A good post made much better with the addition of a director's commentary. The binary opposites of your two pieces...weirdo.

Research and Planning- Marking

Kate's mood board work was not exactly what I had in mind yet still showed remarkable insight on occasions. The still images were used as the starting point of several analytical pieces which could be excellent (the pier) but over-complicated in places too (her comments on neon lighting in Drive). Kate's post on title sequences seems to chart the evolution of her idea rather than demonstrating a knowledge of the variety of title sequences and an understanding of their effects. Her entry on David Fincher is frustrating in that, although some truly insightful points are made, they are often buried amongst points that lack any relevance or don't make sense. The fourth slide of Kate's American Psycho analysis is an example of a good point almost lost due to over-complication. Kate's post on year 13 advice demonstrated a thorough approach to preparation for this task and her youtube clip on experiments with lighting demonstrate an incredible dedication and attention ...
