Job Roles and Description.

Director.

The job of the Director is the main figure in any film making production, he/she is omnipotent in the decisions and targetive strategies of complimenting the receivers of media text. they are in charge of most decisions and delegations to prevent problems. In our group the director is Sara as she compliments the directory role in a persistent hard working way which we become institutionalized around to propagate efficient and to unify our collective ideals into a simplistic tactical production.

Cameraman.

The job of the camera operator is a list of various things a dichotomy to the simplistic occupation expected by people in explanation:

• Setting up required equipment and props etc.
• Offering explanation to the adequate camera shots and their visual impacts.
• practising the required camera shots for final performance.
• taking edicts from director.

The camera man in our group is James Hunter, he is the camera man as we believe he has the ideals and envisions that reflect our group choices and can equally and reliable reflect this onto camera.

Sound-Technician.

The job of the sound man is to

• Collect all specified sound on set.
• Assemble the sound equipment
• Consulting producers and performers to determine the sound requirements.

James Ward will be the sound man as he has had some experience, and so is technically most suited.

Producer.

The job of the Producer is

• Hiring key staff for the job
• Reading, researching and assessing ideas for production
• Pulling together the strands to make a successful team.
• using computer software packages for screen writing budgeting and scheduling.

The producer role is one that is superfluous to be entitled singularly as production and job roles will be given to all members of our group and will all have a hand in it's development. 

Lighting Technician.

The job of lighting technician is

• Conducting risk assessments for health and safety purposes
• establishing lighting requirements
• plotting the lighting
• pre-rigging the lighting cables to ensure safety

The job of this is not really required as we use natural high key lighting as to fit with the generic comedy conventions and so the job of lighting technician will be assigned to everyone to manage the health and safety which will mean just to try keep everyone safe.

Ideas from other Texts.

This is How Not To Live Your Life, we have collected some ideas from this show as they have a narrative over the top which worked quite well in context with what was happening and could intrinsically be attributed to our film opening as it will be played from the perspective of our lead character Chelsea, and she will be describing what is happening in her life and who she now has to live with.
Good points of this incur things like the ease of placing sound over the top from a recording studio where sound is negligible, a dichotomy to taking cognizance of the bustling load streets in example cars driving past, wind etc, and so the sound is more reliable.
Bad points of this is that we are not following the diegetic way they commit to and instead we are developing a different way and omitting their idea, this means that the ambiance they give from it is different than our own and so must measure that effect and nurture it into the way we desire it to be.

We are also following the idea of character name, shot with character in it, then a small amount of dialogue summing up who they are or how they behave in a hopefully humorous way as they did with the character EDDIE. good points are consisting of the fact it delivers a small amount of time and footage whilst suggesting the characters personality, looks and ideals in a miniature amount of time.
Bad points include that using too much may overload the deliverance of the characters person and discombobulate the audience to the point efforts to commandeering their attention is superfluous.

Another idea we have in bourgeois is the idea of having the common denominator being a girl, not the older one though, we mean the young girl he kisses that has a boyfriend, however our girl will not have a boyfriend and instead will be unitary even without someone to lean on.
Good points, this includes the idea that our girl is a strong individual character and that she can withstand solitary conduct this will be paralleled hopefully to the intrinsic reciprocity of interlinking ideals in bourgeois with the Femme Fatales in our target audience.
Bad Points, the over dependence on intrinsic linking may distract people from the personalities of the other people.

Script

This is our script written up on word.

Target Audience Picture and explanation.

This picture is a representation of our target audience being males and females under 35 however with a little more of an edge towards females but however comedy is ubiquitously enjoyed by everybody and so mainstream as a dichotomy to niche.
Pictures like this can amplify psychographic information needed to bolster the connexity of the target audience work for our opening two minutes by amplifying the clothes, personalities and behavioral patterns.


Some psychographic information obtained is they may be more extricate a dichotomy of intricate, however this only a trend and so can be enjoyed by these people. However since in comedy there is superfluity of enjoyment involved in the genre, the older generation may be non intrinsically interested in the comedy film however they still may be interested in the film. this would suggest that age restricted trends do not apply to a comedy opening, suggesting that latest fads do not apply to the film and that obsolescent objects and ideals do not apply dramatically to a comedy film providing that any younger or antiquated material does not revolve around the film opening changing age equilibrium out of balance and therefor limiting satisfaction the the recipients of media texts

Most of these people are young kids who obviously will go online mostly and so advertising of Facebook should be revised. the obsolescent of our target audience will not be, or not very much, be online and so will have to use other advertising means such as program referral on existing television films and programs as to create a dichotomy between fully aware of the film and total vacuum of knowledge based on this. and so must be tactically enhanced to reach maximum realization of our film. The advert will go in between family shows however ones that also target 16 or over which can be identified by the BBFC rating of the film or program that is classified as family for example Shaun of the dead, a comedy film to be enjoyed however has a theme of horror and so forth not preferred for kids.

Since we used a representitive group of people in the film it is better to enshroud their personas to intrinsically link towards the audience watching.
Psychographics of this particular group are people who are rather immature and so swears and slander may link towards them these people have interests such as video games as a major one so Martin will be used to relate to them, Barry relates to the more female aspiring audience who may be the same as Barry. Jack relates to the slobbing nature of our probably younger audience, Tony for the sporty types that have to look after themselves everyday, whilst Chelsea supports the femme fatale and opposition to stereotypical men advances typical to woman.

Student Video Analysis

Target audience

This page shows the amount of film viewed over this period and categorically identified them into 4. "none", meaning these people did not watch any films which was 12%, "Light", this meant people have only watched about 1 - 5 films, the amount was 36%. "Medium" means people have seen approximately between 6 - 25 the amount was 42%. Then finally "Heavy" consisting of 26 - over 50, the figure for this was 10%. This means that the average person watches 6 - 25 films every 3 months.

This graph shows the percentage of genre people enjoy watching, it shows that comedy is the most enjoyed genre at a figure of 64% a difference of 4% compared to the next most enjoyed genre of adventure.

The most least enjoyed genre is Nollywood that only 1% of the great British sample of over 16 year old enjoy.

Pure comedy compared to its Rom-com hybrid genre is enjoyed by 27% more than Rom-com at a lower figure of comedy's 64% with Rom-com's 37%

This shows that we should avoid Romantic themes in our comedy.

This graph shows a full breakdown by demographics    and market segments. Our genre, comedy, is shown to be typically enjoyed by both males and females in any age, however comedy is most loved by females under 35 years old (78%) and least loved by males under 35 (53%).

Another genre under these conditions is romantic comedy, with the figure for females under 35 being 61% and males under 35 being 16%. However the amount of females under 35 for people who enjoy romantic comedies is smaller than the ones who enjoy pure comedies showing this may be an area to avoid in our chosen target audience.

This graph shows the amount of people who believe the genre picked is their favorite genre. Comedy once again is at the top with 31% of people having it as their favorite, this is a big demographic opportunity as comedy covers more than a quarter of the market for films compared with its next competitor the thriller/suspense genre being 26%, this and comedy make half the film market and since are very different it is easy for the audience to chose which one they want more and comedy being more preferred, means they will more likely pick comedy over the thriller/suspense.

This graph shows the full breakdown of demographics and market segments for people who consider these genres their favourite. For comedy once again it is the females under 35 years old at a figure of 48% this is almost half the female under 35 potential audience. However in this graph it shows females over 35s as comedy being their least favorite genre at a figure of 24%. comedy is favored by parents (32%) however this is not a significant difference as non parents' figure is 30%. People classified in the C2 category favore comedy compared to the others at a figure of 35%.

Our chosen genre is comedy, the target audience for this can be males and females of all ages as it a well liked genre by everybody however females under 35 are more likely to watch comedies and so will primarily target these people. Peoples social class is most likely to be C2, it is liked by this the most, this consists of skilled workers i.e. plumbers. Comedy is popular with people with or without kids and so will target both.

This graph shows the box office history for comedy movies. the most popular being How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Meet the Fockers then Austin Powers, The Spy Who Shagged Me. the connections between these films is that they are all PG or PG-13's this may be something to investigate to discover how these classified films reel in the target audience's.

according to the ticket sales and market share, 2006 did the best for comedy these films consists of Cars and Over The Hedge, these consist of PG or less.

This graph shows the top comedy films by how much they grossed and it shows that the Hangover and The Hangover 2 seems to be the most popular, it may be because people enjoy seeing these people who are of regular occupations and regular lives getting into strange situations as it presents a night as almost phantasmagorical standpoint. 

the rest of the films include things such as Wedding Crashers, There's Something About Mary, Scary Movie and Knocked Up, these films do not seem to have any production correlations to investigate.

The questions we asked Consisted of , in summery, what genres do you like, why and what makes them different to other in terms of what you wanna see.
other questions being what do you not wanna see, what would make you not wanna see our film.

This was done to accumulate what attracts and repels people, knowing this are opening must meet there wants and repel the dislikes, it gave us an idea of what these people want to see and since people did like comedy and have seen comedy films it helps reinforce our choice or target audience with primary data i.e. our interview. the main points raised is that comedy is seen to be a hybrid genre, so special points in consideration to make the comedy movie unique. As a result another movie option was considered which was a hybrid genre however after researching box office statistics we decided it was not a very good idea. the collective psycho-graphics discovered where things like people like smarter comedies where whit and comebacks are essential or just back and forth banter in opposition to the laurel and Hardy style comedies.

This is our pitch to the class supporting two different ideas on our two minute opening scene. Our opening film idea one was where some lads wake up from being on a night out and the next morning, have done outrageous things shown in the clip adding enigma to the opening scenes. Idea two was simply where a female of young age i.e. 16 - 18 moves into a house with 4 other guys and each one has to try resist the famed 'bro-code' in order to keep the peace but can hold out from the inciting excitement of this young girl.
The theme of our film idea is a polymorph of themes including friendship, romance, and about how to treat friend irrespective of love life and the other way round.
Our idea of actors are ourselves and are other people who we know who support the role of who we envision to en-capture what we want to see in our film opening. the locations will have to be one of our houses for the most limited time required to move onto locations that exactly reflect the character involved in the scene reinforcing the mise-en-scene, props will be regulated similarly to this.
The target audience for our film after much consideration will be openly active to anyone enforced by the multiple personalities to represent the almost ubiquitous enjoyment of comedy however our main focus will be females under 35 as these appear to be the people who favor comedy the most.
The enigma in the opening scene is things like, who is going to get this girl, what is the girls background?
At the moment no technical aspects have been thought of in relation to this opening scene however things that fit with the generic conventions of opening scenes and comedic opening scenes have been discussed and an establishing shot of a house where she is moving too in order to connote who the people are who live in the house or to show the dichotomy of the house exterior VS interior.
Our USP for the movie is the film idea itself as it is presented as a side theme in some series programs however the idea has never been encapsulated and shoved into a movie and shown in this manner and so after revamping it becomes our own idea.
The feedback we got contained a dislike for idea one as it was done many times before and that it will be too hard to originate it, however people did respond to the idea two as it sounded original and straightforward with a smaller amount of enigma so maybe less attention grabbing but in response to the TA interview it is a comedy that although is not out there it is people grabbing as it puts out a "good feeling".
