Question 3: Media Institutions. Production & Distribution

Company LogoWe were inspired by films like Taken. The idea of a thriller genre inspired us because initially when we wanted to do British Gangster genre we felt that the films didn’t really give much thought into the logos and titles. For some people the company logo may be irrelevant however I feel that if thought is put into the company logo then it gives a good impression and may entice audience to watch as consideration has been given on plenty of aspects. We wanted to create something that went with out film storyline because what’s the point of creating something that sort of went with our storyline. If we had a company logo with rainbows and bright colours then it wouldn’t really match with our film. It took us quite some time to get it together because we were new with the programme and familiarising ourselves with adobe.

We had to think quite a bit about our theme because initially we were going for the British gangster look but then we went for a more thriller and crime touch with a touch of film noir as we wanted to include a black and white scene to connote the darkness

when the child was being taken. Our film has a touch of both so two film noir and crime/thriller genre. I think that the best company to chose to produce our film that is

Warner brothers because based on my initial research task Warner Brothers is production company used for both Film noir and Crime thriller productions. Based on our story line we went with for our have film opening I felt that our film is something

that Warner brothers might produce as its something that a lot of young people enjoy as it gets an off the seat reaction.

Production

DistributionDistribution starts with this idea of sharing something across to people, places or even across the world. Film distribution is how big companies decide to get your film out to people and target its audience well. If I had to think about who would distribute my film I would chose Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation because they have distributed a similar film which we later got inspired by. We got inspired by thrill such as the film Taken and I feel that a company who can agree to distribute a variety of films and not a certain genre then they would be willing to give a film like my groups a chance

Opening CreditsFor our opening credits we of course included the

whole group. We tried our best to include titles that matched with whatever we did e.g. if someone had a

huge involvement in editing then they were mentioned. We had consistency in the way we showed the credits. We only changed where about we put the title on the screen otherwise the font and design was

the same. We included full names and put them in the corners of the screen as we felt this was appropriate.
