Film making-Distribution

WALT-summarise the text in our own words

Distribution is the last stage to film making. They usually release to cinemas first then to Blu-ray, DVD or Netflix. To get to the cinemas the film is copied to film tape or hard drive then the duplicates are sold to cinemas. But before that happens the film is advertised using posters and ads on TV or YouTube. Sometimes clips not used in the actual film are used to make documentaries if the film gets very popular.

Films are generally released with a launch party, a red carpet premiere, press releases and interviews. The director and the actors will sometime go on tours to help the films promotion they will have interviews go to festivals some really popular films may even go on more than one tour from popularity.

Since home video, films have been released on different  platforms throughout the weeks or months are the film has been released. It usually gets promoted then released to cinemas then the company can decided how long they will wait before releasing it to other viewing options.

Production summary

WALT-summarise the text in our own words

Production is the stage were all the filming happens. Extra crew are recruited such as sound and picture editors, script supervisor, assistant director and stills photographer. These are the most common job roles but the film can create roles when needed for various responsibilities. 

A normal day of film begins with the  crew arriving at the location.
Because the set construction, dressing and lighting can take many hours,
they are often set up hours ahead. While the set is being filmed the next one
is usually being built to keep things efficient. After that happened the actors
rehearse the next scene and get costumes ready. Then the scene is shot as
many times as the director wants.

The film is then put together, the sound effects, music and video are all added
to each other. Then the film is done.

Reflection- I have been in Thailand for the last two weeks so I haven't been able to experience any filming or editing.

Film Recount

This is the film we made last Friday, it was about Devlin and Pala fighting. It took about 30 minutes to make but then it took an hour to edit. The editing was tricky to work out because we had never edited videos before, we were using we video to put music in the background and cut all the scenes together to make it all run smoothly. Then all the groups had to show the class the movie they made.

After that we wrote about the solar system. Then we wrote about astrology and the four elements of astrology and their strengths and weakness. I enjoyed doing it all because they were all subjects I was interested in.
