Our production company
Our production company is called skyzone films. We called it this as we believed that the name skyzone gave the impression of an action themed genre as we thought of the quote "the sky has no limit". we want the audience to think that our films will be unique and filled with action and adventure with jaw dropping scenes.
In addition to this, we did some research as to what our logo should look like. As a group we thought that should be simple and basic yet is recognisable. So after looking at other basic logo that are commonly known such as film 4, we thought we should use a simple font and possible something related to film. After carefully putting together different logos our finished logo looks like this:
What does a production company do?
They are responsible for the production of a film. They will help with the funding, distribution and investors. if they believe the film is not worth anything or will not succeed they can turn down the film. Production companies can be well known and work with the best and well known actors such as Marvel has recently worked with Vin Diesel on Guardians of the Galaxy however, so have Universal studios on films such as fast and furious. Therefore, if they accept to fund your film then you can have a famous star staring within them, which will help boost views along with profit.
Where might the movie have come from?
Due to our film being an independent film, the funding for it would not be very high. I would roughly estimate that we might receive around £2 million. This is mainly because we are not well known and would most likely be classed as beginners in this world of business therefore, producers and production companies will not be completely convinced by our idea and mainly not the major ones. If any production company was to run our film, I think our best chance would be with a company like BBC or film 4 or even lionsgate if it was to a high standard.
However, as we don't have any production companies to fund our film we were on a low budget which meant all the props and equipment were to be provided by ourselves. We were able to improvise as a group by using Jamie's camera due to the quality being far better than the ones in school, but the ones in school would still be there as a backup. Furthermore, any props were most likely going to be available to borrow from our drama studio, if not it was down to us to find one which would be good enough for our filming purposes.
Why are people named in titles?
This is because they are part of the crew which have made the film and hopefully turned it into a success. All the roles such as producer, director, cast, music producer and costume designer etc. must credit not only so they can be congratulated on the work they have done but also be noticed and will most likely be hired by other companies for their honourable work.
In our final product, we displayed the director first as he played the most important role to some extent as he was in control of the entire movie. We then displayed other crew member such as camera crew was Charlie and Sofia, news reporter was Nayma, the hero was Jamie and the victim was Matthew. Everyone is to be stated in the credits as it shows their participation and how everyone worked in the time in order to create the film piece.
What is our film similar to institutionally?
Our film is similar to batman, this is because whilst it is all about the action between the villain and the hero that engages the audience. We wanted to start from the end of our film first which might be classed a spoiler towards the the audience but it lets them see our characters story. In 'batman the dark night rises', there is an interrogation scene where the villain is being questioned. We wanted to use this kind of idea based on the lighting in the seen. We thought it was a create idea to use dark lighting when the hero was hacking as it helps creates tension and mystery. In addition to this, there is a close up of the villain which shows his pain and his emotion which allows the audience to connect with him and feel sorry. This was used in our final product as whilst it wasn't the villain killed it was the hero. We used a deep shot which showed the hero in the background and the audience could see his fear.
