Storyboard for our film idea!

This is our storyboard idea for our film these pictures can show you how the film will run and what the opening sequence will look like also we did this storyboard idea because it helped us to make our movie and helped us to plan it. As you can see in comparison to our finished idea we used this plan to do our opening sequence and then later decided to add a lot more to set the story and also to make it longer as the film wouldn't be long enough with just this piece of film. So from the task it helped us to get planned and get out and start to film our idea but it also helped to show us that we need a lot more to set the scene and make the film longer and make sense throughout.

Institutional research

Distribution

I think that the company that would produce and distribute my groups drama movie would be a company such a BBC films. This is because they have done other British drama movies that have gone international after a small time of being UK exclusive. I think that it would be best to start off being UK exclusive because we would find out if the movie is successful before putting in a larger amount of money for making the film international

After we have had success in UK with BBC films we would try to contact a larger company that would distribute my movie internationally. We would try to use river road entertainment to get our movie to go international, this is an American company that have had other successful drama movies such as ‘Fair game’

The BBFC research and what rating i want my movie!

The BBFC is the British Board of Film Classification and they make sure that all the films in Britain are suitable for the rating that have been given, they also give films the correct rating which is varied depending on the content involved in the film, they watch the films before they are released to make sure that they have the age appropriate rating so that no-one under-age sees the bad content.

“15”

15 is the age certificate that my film will be so we have to make sure that our film doesn’t break the boundaries set by the BBFC because we don’t want the film to be 15, we have chosen it to be a 15 because it is going to contain strong violence and strong language so it wont be suitable for a lower age certificate, we also chose this because we did some research into what certificate we should give the film and people are more likely to watch a 15 because it seen as less childish and you expect more from the film so we made it a 15. BBFC - “The work as a whole must not endorse discriminatory language or behaviour.”  This is one of the boundaries we cannot break.

 From this task i have learnt the different boundries in which movies have to face, some of the boundries can be strict and stop films from having certain scenes in their film but it is also good as it tells what we expect to see during the film and what to expect.
