PLANNING - Feedback from Class



What we done well:
 From the feedback that we received we were told that our presentation was short and snappy, it was straight to the point. Furthermore, the use of pictures for our costumes, props and location was good by the majority of the class. Also our plot idea was good.

What we could do better:
There could've been more pictures in the presentation, also we could've gone  in a bit more depth on the reasons why we were using the props that we were using and on some of the decisions that we made.
Also we needed to be clear on our core audience and how we present.

PLANNING - Distribution Companies

MAMA




The main distribution company for the film MAMA is Universal Pictures. However, from the screenshot above, we can see that the film has other independent distribution companies for different countries. This makes sense as some countries may need subtitles the film in their own language in order to understand it.

The marketing tools used to distribute the film was posters and social media. The film has its own Twitter and Facebook page.






















As shown on the list, MAMA had a wide release in lots of cinemas internationally. This suggests that the film was quite popular and attracted audiences from different age groups.

MAMA is available in different formats, such as Blu-ray, DVD and Digital copy.

PLANNING- An audience member profile (Part 1)

Insidious







Paranormal Activity 
















Conclusion:

Both films have the same social group therefore horror movies are mostly watched by the working class and they also support the left side of politics and they are also really into media. On the other hand the regions are different and the age group is quite wide as Insidious has an age group of 18-24 year old whereas paranormal activity is 25'39 year old, this shows that horror genre, the age range is quite wide. From the research I previously done the age range was much older from the same genre.
