Evaluation 7(Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you think you have learnt in the progression from it to the product?)
As we came to the completion of constructing our begining to a thriller scene, we allowed ourselves to look back at the first ever filming we did, which was the preliminary task. From looking back at this we see that our thriller is more well constructed; by this i mean the use of the camera in our thriller is more enhanced because of the different shots and camera angles we used, also the editing was done more sufficiently, which added effectiveness to our piece. As we looked back at our preliminary task we straight away saw that it was very unprofessional, especially the acting and the editing of the film.
For our preliminary task there wasn't much thoughts and ideas that had gone into it, we basically recorded and then pause to quickly make up what ever will happen next. This made the whole thing look very disorganised. The image quality seemed very poor and the camera wasn't entirely still. Also, titles were not used for example the characters that are in the film and who produce it.
For our thriller we used many different shots and camera angles to have our piece way more interesting than our preliminary task was. All of this allowed our piece to create tension and suspense for the audience and also allow them to keep in interest in our film so that they will watch on. Dissolves were used ion our thriller to show that time has passed.
For the preliminary task there was no music that would make the piece more interesting and more lively. As this factor isn't included it would be more unlikely for an audience to watch on. As for our actual thriller scene we added to music which allows the audience to have more of a feeling to what is happening in the scene.

Evaluation 6 (what have you learnt about the technologies from the process of constructing this film?)
Mini DV camcorder
The mini DV camcorder was used to film our preliminary task, interviews and our thiller. I have allowed myself to become highly familier with this camera and able to start recording and pause at the correct moment that is needed.
Tripod
The tripod was used to allow the camera to be stabled and able to film with out any shaking of the camera. After a while of using this equiptment i have become more accurate in using it, i have learned how to pan a shot, move the camera up and down on the fix axis and also to tilt the camera up and down.
Digital camera
The digital camera had been used in order for me to take pictures of my storyboard to allow me to create a video animation. Again when using this equipment i learned how to put the camera in focus to allow the pictures taken come out to be clear.
The apple mac was used to apply all our video recording and used to edit it. At first it was kind of difficult to use this piece of equipment but as time passed we became familier with it and was able to use it effectively and efficiently.

Evaluation 5(How did you attract/ address your audience?)
Throughout our thriller we designed it to hold the audience attention, by bringing forth suspense and tension instantly so it could them keep watching to see what happens later.
We discovered our target audience by interviewing in person and producing a survey questionnaire for people to answer. We looked at both interview and survey to gather the information need to begin the constructing of our film, and to plan properly what its going to be like for example it could have been a paranoid thriller, political thriller or psychological thriller. By discovering our target audience is allows us to fix the charcters in our film in a similar way that our audience for exmaple the age of the characters. This allows the audience to bond with the charcters because by them being the same age they will see that they're living the same life style as them.
Our short thriller scene contains a cliff hanger at the end of the. As the protagonists are in the garage, the antagonist walks in and closes the door allowing them to have nowhere to escape. As the protagonist approaches with the knife, the scene ends with the title and we don't know what will happen next, which leaves the audience in dispair as they would erge to see and know what happens next, but nothing is revealed.
Two locations were used in out thriller, one was inside of a house, on the streets and garage, we used these locations effectively to produce our sequence of film allowing their to be many different shots and having the change of lighting and colour. The setting will allow audience to be attracted to watch our film as you can see the houses in the background which they will have knowledge that this place is britain where the film is being shot. The locations are also used effectively allowing the tension and suspense to be created and making the audience feel as if they're in the same position as the characters in the film by making them feel dispair.

Many things are revealed in the being of our thriller to allow the audience continue watch. These moments were where you see the some tided up in a chair. This allows the audience feeling to watch on to see the mystery of who is tided up and why.

Evaluation 4 (Who would be the audience for your media product?)
People of the age 18- 30 would be our audience for our media product because it shows a relation with them and the characters that are with in our film. A while back we created a survey on Survey Monkey, we got feedback and saw what people want and expected to get from a thriller and the age of that we should direct our thriller towards.
The survey questionnair reveals that our film should be aim at 11-20 year olds, this group would watch our film because of the genre being a thriller, young these days love the tension and the suspense that is built that will make them frightened and jump off their seats.

Evaluation 3 (What kind of instution media might want distribute your media?)
There are many film companies and institutions that could distribute our film to be looked by Film 4, Working and Title and Metrodome . Below are the companies i have researched into that distributed films like my own these are Universal Studios and Demension Films.
Universial have produced these thrillers:
The Unborn
Drag Me To Hell
Deminsion Films have produce these thrillers:
The ghost writer
Twilight Saga
In lesson we learned about the Microwave Scheme. This Scheme was set up by the UK Film Council where amature film makers are provided with a fund of #100,000 to produce a film of their own. Along with learning about the Microwave Scheme, we watch a film called 'Shifty', this a film that had been funded by this scheme, the took 18 days to construct, and Metrodome distributed it as it showed potential.
Our film could be shown digitally in the cinema, on Television, the internet which would be youtube etc and DVD. There many ways that a distributing company can advertise my film below are just a few examples:
Official websites
articles
Trailers
internet banners
film festivals
build boards
By using a range of these marketing methods there will be more likeliness that our film will be watched by people. Many of these methods are used by for films that have been produced like our own.
