Film Pitch

Surprisingly enough, this section actually made me a nervous wreck! I was so scared for some reason and I just couldn't put my finger on why. One thing I can is that these templates that are being provided are super helpful. 

I do have to admit that I was a little weird out the fact that I wasn't actually talking to someone. It was just me sitting against a wall in my bedroom on my phone. It was so different for me because it was something I had never experienced before and was VERY nervous to do. One thing I regret not doing before was actually practicing how I was going to speak and give the responses. I was worried that I was speaking too softly, too loudly, touching my glasses and I even got a phone call in the middle of recording. There was a point when I was recording that I was doing so good and then messed up! I then decided to just edit the two parts together because I knew that was the best I was going to get out of all my epic fails. Eventually I completed the video and just began to edit, I was worried that I mispronounced a word or that something else bad happened. 


After a long time of recording, errors, laughing, and editing I finally submitted my film pitch and I think I did fairly well. Whenever I do an assignment for this class I always try to spend as much time as I can on it because I have no type of prior knowledge of this course and it is still so new to me. So I have been oing everything to the best of my ability and hopefully all my hard work is going to pay off during the final production of this film opening. I don't really have much to say about this stage. But I can say that this section was fun to prepare and film.

Production

 Before I start to talk about everything in regards to production, I have to start from the beginning and define the basic terms. Also I want to note that there will be a second part to the production stage.  Starting with defining the terms production, studio, representation, and streotype. Production is the process of or financial/administrative management involving the creation of a film/movie. A studio is basically a room where the production company uses to record television, make films, etc. The portrayal of someone/something in a particular way is known as representation. A stereotype is essentially a fixed idea of a person or thing. A common question asked about movies is what category they fall in. By category I mean are they either a business, art or apart of entertainment. It is sort of obvious on why and how people make the common mistake of not knowing. What most people don't understand is that film (or movies) are apart of an industry, by this a better explanatio...

Distribution

Distribution is the way in which something is shared out among a group or spread over an area. The promotion (also referred to as distribution) of company's film to the general public is the known job that a distribution company handles. Marketing is something in regards to the specific types of activities a company does to facilitate the sale of a product/service. A business may use a variety of techniques to promote their new film in any way possible. One example of said marketing ideas is merchandising. Merchandising is where a company sells its branded items in order to gain more promotion for the specific film. A company may also use a film festival or even cross promotion. This is basically another type of marketing idea in which the promotion of a similar product is directed at the customers of another product.  An innumerable amount things happens during the distribution stage of a film. These said may range from producer getting the legal rights in order to film a story to...

Script

This was probably the start of where things started to get really stressful for me. From having to research every bit of information to making sure that I have is down to detail.  For research specifically, it wasn't really much considering the fact that I was provided with many examples. I basically just looked over the past blogs and what certain approach they decided to take. Alongside with this, I searched up the average scripts for romantic dramas considering the fact that it is the drama that I decided to choose.  When actually sitting down and typing away as I wrote the script for my film project, I realized that it wasn't as bad as I though it was going to be. Even way before we started the project I was reviewing over the pace chart and I said to myself "yep. that is exactly where I'm going to be caught up and stuck on." I have a hard time asking for help and I tend to overthink a lot. So when I actually started to plan out how I wanted this to work out i...
