Low budget films

A low-budget film is a motion picture shot on limited budget.

Young or unknown directors often make low-budget films due to a lack of funding from studios, who are not willing to invest in a film which appears unlikely to become successful.

kidulthood, blaire witch project and shank are three movies that have used low buget maketing campaigns

Film Marketing Research

 Film marketing is when a studio spends a large amount of money advertising there movie/film to the public letting them know about what they have produced.

A film poster is a poster advertising the movie they have created, film posters usually include the title of the movie, a picture of the actor/actress who stars in the movie or illustrations, newspaper reviews, release date and the name of the director and actors.


A film trailer is a short clip of scenes in the movie and contain a number of illustrations, film trailers are produced to advertise the movie to the public, trailers give you a great deal of  information on the movie such as telling the audience the release date, who stars in it who the directors in it etc...
One trailer i  recently saw was immortals, this trailer caught my eye as the scenes from the films left you wandering whats going to happen next, it tells us when its released a number of times, and the effects and the slow-mo scenes are really good ..

Film merchandise is products such as t-shirts, mugs. pencils etc... that have some sort of print or illustration relating to films, most of these product are available in shops.

Film website are to show what new releases are out, interviews actors/actress' about the film they took part in, shows reviews on films etc...

Sometimes film companies use mobile phone to advertise, they do this by creating apps that everyday people can download and keep up to date with the latest films/releases, one example is IMDb Movie & TV this app give you the latest updates on film, TV, games etc...

    we each chose a picture and had to change it up, reducing their wrinkles, making them fat/thin etc...
    this is what i did today, as you can see its not much but you can spot the obvious differences.

    The representation of teenagers.

    Introduction

    Personally i think that teenages are always stereotyped , and represented as people who are distrptive, loud /noisy and abusive.

    The Simpsons.

    Bart Simpson is stereotyped as a childish trouble making kid that is always causing issues, always getting into trouble etc....

    this picture shows us bart on a skateboard with a slingshot looking like hes trying to hit someone.
    This means that the media is stereotyping children/teenagers saying that they hold weapons, skate, cause problems etc...
