Prestige World-Wide 2 - Evaluation task 4

The Caprice's perfect audience would be roughly aged from 15-24 but mainly males; this is because males are generally more into scary film more than girls. In the photo, this is Terry who is 17 years old and likes scary thrillers. The audience category that our film comes under is a 'Mainstream' audience. It could possible come under the 'Emo' category because emos are usually interested in the supernatural, scary theme. It could come under the Townie' category, because people that live in towns are out-going people that go to see films a lot of the time. Terry is a boy who lives in a town and watches a lot of films and is into horror films.

Prestige World-Wide 2 - Evaluation Task 3

This is the video our producer made explaining about the films distrubutioin

Prestige World-Wide 2 - Evaluation Task 2

 
Our two main characters in our film are dressed stereotypical as detectives in the 1950's. As do the actors in the film shutter island. Our actor on the right, James, is wearing what they do in the film shutter island, with a long grey coat, a hat, buttoned up shirt and tie. The film shutter island is filmed in roughly the same era as our film The Caprice. I think we have followed the stereotypical detective in our film and that’s why with our other character on the left who is also a detective but doesn’t quite look as smart, so it possible gives him a sense of laziness as he isn’t dressed as smart.

Prestige World-Wide 2 - Evaluation Task 1



In the Caprice I have chosen nine shots to evaluate.

Shot 1: The beginning of our title sequence shows 'Lionsgate' - our distributor. I chose lionsgate because they have a reputation for distributing successful films from our genre; a thriller/horror.

Shot 2: This is my groups Production company; Prestige World-Wide. This is the company that produced our film and provided money for the film. This Prestige World-Wide logo with the blood spread out on marble shows that the company produce films that tend to have a bit of horror in them.

Shot 3. This is an establishing shot that shows location and one of the main characters.

Shot 4. This shows the main characters meeting. We chose them to meet with the 'main house' in the background, to give an effect of the main location. This is a mid-shot and the characters are shaking hands as they are meeting for the first time. A shake of the hand means that they are polite to each other. The costumes they are wearing are smart jackets, trousers, shoes and hat.

Shot 5. This shot shows recognition of our partners in producing the film, 'Dead Man Production' it is important to include them so people can appreciate their expertise. This shot also shows the camera behind the long grass, to give an effect that someone is watching them.

Shot 6. This shows a shot with the two main characters in the background with leaves in the foreground, this again gives an effect of someone watching them.

Shot 7. This shows the two main characters entering the building that they have seen in previous clips, and this building is the building they have been called in to investigate.

Shot 8. This shot shows the drop of a knife, the knife resembles violence and gives the audience a sense of violence that will come in the film.

Shot 9. This shot shows the title of the film; 'The Caprice'. The font of this is courier which is old type writer font; this links it to the setting of when the film took place. The title is large and takes up the majority of the screen, this has been done with an effect where we have put a block out stencil of us lighting a match in a dark room, so the title flickers. This flickering of the title gives a spooky and mysterious effect, which ends the opening title sequence and goes straight into the main bit of the film

This is our rough edit of the opening title sequence of 'The Caprice'. We have most of the shots we need so far. But there is still a lot of work on editing, getting the titles and getting the music in the clip.



This is proof of us filming our video.

#26 Prestige World-Wide 2 - Casting Shots & Views

We chose 'Toby' as our actor, 'Murdoch Munro' because he is a good actor and can act serious which fills the role that he plays in the film, he was also easy to cooperate with.

We used 'James' as our actor , 'Scot Parker' because he is of a similar size to Toby, he is a bit of a quirky character, but can be serious when it comes to acting, and he is from England.
