Who would be the audience for your media product?

Order of my titles

I have chose these titles from the similar films I researched. I began the order of my film titles with the film institute. As the in most films shown the film institution is shown at the beginning of the film.

1. Columbia pictures 
2. TRUTH-    This is my film title and I decided to put this after the film company because I wanted to address the film title before the beginning of the film.
3. Directed by Andy Mushetti - I chose this director from the film Mama. 
4. Jessica Chatstain- this is an actress chosen from another similar film
5. Producer Rob Cowan
6. Editor Lisa Lanet
7. Production Design by Anastasia Masaro
8. Casting by Robin.D.Cook
9. Writer Chad Hayes- this is the writer of the film Mama. I chose this writer because of the similar storyline.
10. Music David Hayes 

There are unfortunately a small amount of titles used in my film opening due to the shirt time of my film opening.

Evaluation-Question 6

What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

I have learnt to use some of the media technologies and software's through the planning and tasks done in media lessons. We began practising filming, angles and shots. This was using a video camera. These tasks helped with the practice of using the equipment such as the tripod and camera as it helped prepare for the planning and filming of the opening. Through the process of filming I learnt to use final cut express. This is an editing software on the Mac pc. Thought completing the life on mars task and continuity exercise this helped myself familiarise the tools on the software.

During the process of the filming I used equipment browed from school. This was the camera and tripod. The camera was simple to handle and understand the features. For editing I used the Mac pc using the programs final cut express and imovie. I also used an SD card reader to save my recorded film clips onto and then transfer to the computer.

Evaluation-Question 3

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

A film distributor is a company responsible for the marketing of a film.

The film institution I chose was Columbia pictures. A reason why decided to use this film institution because I decided Columbia pictures best suited my film. Columbia pictures is an American production. The film institution is well known in the film industry. It is owned by Sony entertainment. 

Here are a few of the films Columbia pictures has been a production institute for in 2010.
