Changing the tagline

I have decided to change the tagline of my film. Initially, it was "you, me & the world" however I have decided to change it to "Life has a plan" because I feel like this is a more appropriate tag line. I used this phrase in my trailer so I think that it is appropriate to use for a tagline. By using the tagline in my trailer, I am keeping this film consistent which is what makes the film more believable.

Magazine Cover - Draft

Here is the first draft for my magazine cover. I personally think that I need to make more improvements such as a better cover image because it looks quite messy at the moment. In order to do this, I will carry out another photo shoot for a better quality cover image. There are also various empty spaces that needs to be filled out, for example I need more cover lines.



Film Exhibition

I have research film exhibition to find out more details about its role and purpose; I have also considered possible film exhibitors that could screen my film. Additionally, I looked at different types of exhibition. Overall, I have a better knowledge and understanding about film exhibition.

Film Poster - Semiotic Anlysis

I have analysed an independent film poster so that I can get an understanding of the conventions of a film poster; I will use this to apply similar features for the poster that I am making for my film. The film I have chosen to Analyse is Swiss Army Man directed by Daniel Kwan and Daniel

Scheinert.

Film Distribution

Changes I will make to my trailer.

Since I have gathered the feedback from both the film pitch feedback video and the questionnaire, I can now start to make slight changes based on the feedback from my candidates and what they expect to see. On a positive note, the majority of the feedback is positive however there are some changes that they will expect to see and I will try and incorporate those into my film trailer.

Additional Characters

One of the main expectations that my candidates want to see in the film are additional characters, rather than just seeing the two protagonists for the whole trailer. I have decided that I will cast additional actors to play the role of Carrie's mother, possibly the brother and also the ex-boyfriend.

Tagline

All of my candidates have commented on the tagline with different opinions, however the majority of them have said that the tagline is too long so I will change it to a shorter one. I still want the tagline to be relatable to the characters so I will think of the most appropriate tagline to use. Another candidate said that the tagline is quite comical which means I may need to think of something that would suit the atmosphere of the film.


Overall, I will definitely make these minor changes because I want my target audience to feel captivated in my film which is why I asked for feedback. I will upload any further improvements I have made in future posts.
