Evaluation Task 4

Who would be the audience for your media product?


From the questionnaires that i made i found that the majourity of the people who would watch my film were teenage boys, aged 16-19.

Billy Bob is a 17 yr old boy who can relate to our film 'Judgment Day' very well. He as many of the same tastes as the main actor Jimmy, listening to the same genre of music and having the same hobbies.

Evaluation Tack 3

What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?


A production company has sole responsibility over the film from start to finish. They raise money the money for the film, produce the film, hire everyone who is needed, and basically make sure that the project is running smoothly. Examples of production companies are Dreamworks and Miramax, the production company for my film is Orange Entertainment. Distributors are companies who market the film, they make the film known and sell it various places. They determine how many copies of the film to make and they show the film to prospective buyers.
I think this film could be distributed by a company such as UK Film Council- this would be where most of the funding would come from. I think that this film could be shown at small film festivals such as The Portobello Film Festival.
The titles that apper in my film are the most important people/companies who worked on it. I put the most important people at the beginning and at the end, making sure people will remember them and following conventions.

Evaluation Task 2

How does your media product represent particular social groups?

Jimmy edwards is a character from the american tv drama One tree Hill. jimmy is alot like our character johnny since she feels like a outcast and she is bullied by other pupils. They are both left with no other option but two take a gun to school to try and make all the people who have caused them pain. Neither of them kill anyone or have it in them to commit murder. This is where their similarities differ, as jimmy takes his gun in to scare people and actually does shoot someone but not fatally. Johnny goes to school to show people what they have done to him and show them who they really are.

Evaluation Task 1

In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

My title sequence follows most of the codes and conventions of a title sequence but it differs slightly. The titles are white with a black outline, i decided to put them over the moving image as i did not want to draw attention away from the picture. I also put them at the bottom of the screen so they do not cover up the moving picture. I think i follow the conventions of opening titles as i have put the names of the most important people who are involved in the sequence, the order of the titles go; production company, producer, director, main actor and finally title of film.
