Digital Distribution- Second

Paranormal Activity 4 was everywhere. Any Si-Fi channel, any movie theater trailer, and any ad on a game or television. Every theater had it playing for about four months because it was that popular and  it pulled in 53,900,335 dollars over that time. The film was also shown in IMAX which gives it a step up in the film industry. Many people enjoy having the close up into the life of paranormal activity and it gives off more horror. Just in the first week the movie got $33,957,365 and was in 3,412 theaters. With putting the film everywhere and giving previews of the horror to come made everyone so ready for the movie. Paramount did an amazing job with the film and it satisfied peoples need.

Digial Distribution- First

During the production of "It Follows" it was shown all over the world. Trailers for the film were shown on every channel and in every theater, trying to get the word out that the new film would be coming to theaters March 13th. The movie made a total of 14,674,076 dollars and the film stayed in theaters for up to 3 months. The movie just kept pulling in more and more viewers, which meant more money for the production company. You can find this film on Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Films. That is a main thing for productions theses days, putting it out there for people who can't make it to the theaters.

Distribution Research

Traditional distribution is a chain of businesses or intermediaries through which a good or service passes until it reaches the end consumer. Which means it is posted all around the world through different markets to get the word out. We as a group could use this to help promote our film in the future. If we found a big name production group we could pay for our film to be shown on their channels. We could also rent out a movie theater for our film and show it there along with selling our own tickets. Netflix is another option, they tend to produce many films in all ranges. Netflix could sponsor us to show our movie on their widely known app.

Revision- Story Board

The story board for the film is as seen. We put the main scenes in the board to show what was more important. Rachel drew the story board because she is the most artistic out of the group. The story board had to be remade because we changed our film's story line.

Revison- Script

With completely changing the film we had to change the script around. The actors didn't really have to improvise, because their words flowed together so well. We changed the story behind it and the ending scene.   

The Lost Script:

Rachel Peel: Rachel
Shane Peel: Shane
Kidnapper
Girl who hangs missing poster

Rachel: Hey
Shane: Hey! How are you?
Rachel: I'm good
Shane: Good, God it's great to see you? So how's school?
Rachel: It's good
Shane: Good. I don't have to worry about any boys do I?
Rachel: No (sigh)
Shane: You remind what I do right? Like the last one
Rachel: No
Shane: Yeah that's it remember when I threw him in that squad car. What was that guy's name again?
Rachel: (embarrassed) No please don't
Shane: (repeating) What was his name again? Good times!
Girl who hangs missing poster: Hey guys sorry to interrupt, but a lot of girls have gone missing so if you have any information will you please call us?
Rachel: Yeah for sure
Girl who hangs missing poster: Thank you
Rachel: What? Do you know anything about this?
Shane: Yeah it's actually a case that I am working on
Rachel: Are there any leads? Has anybody found the guy?
Shane: Not yet but five girls have gone missing in the past three months
Rachel: Oh my gosh
Shane: But we are getting close though, I can feel it. Okay?
Rachel: (depressed) Okay
Shane: I've got this you know I've got this
Rachel: I know
Shane: I've never let anything happen to you. All right?
Rachel: All right
Shane: It's my Lieutenant I've got to take this, I will be right back
Rachel: Okay
Shane: (on phone) Yes sir, of course, I will be on my way
Rachel: (answers phone call) Hey where did you go? Aw really? Definitely next week, Alright bye love you.
Rachel: (calls Shane again) Did you forget something?
*Rachel shoved into truck*
Rachel: NO please stop!!

Revison- Location

We moved locations to the pavilion by the Siesta Key play ground. This area gave us a more casual approach as the siblings talk about about their lives. They was less sound so it was easier to hear the actor's conversation. There was no back ground sound that messed up the sound and it looked better with them just sitting down and talking. I think we all enjoyed shooting there because it went smoother with the camera and it was less shaky.

Super Bowl Commercials

After watching the Super Bowl commercials I saw that most of them all had the same target audience. It was between teenagers and older people in their later years. They incorporated a few products such as the new Mountain Dew Ice and Dorito Blaze. The producers had the actors singing well known songs from the 2000's. This got to the younger people because they were rapping the songs but it also caught older people's attention because the people singer were older and well known. There was another commercial that had the newly invented "Alexa" it is a talking app that helps you with every day tasks. They used a number of famous people interacting with casual every day people. This ad was mostly towards people sixteen and up because not many young children will understand how to use it. The Winter Olympics commercial touched a lot of heart in the screening of it. It showed the girl growing up and how much she has put into her training to get where she is today. Alicia Keys is singing in the background and the commercial is kind of a women empowerment move. All of these commercials caught the eyes of all the people watching. All of these ads had a focus group and they achieved that goal of getting their attention. We could incorporate this in our film by maybe opening out horizon to older people but that would mea we have to add older folks into our film.
