FINAL Evaluation of promotion pack


  Complete an evaluation of your publicity pack answering all of the following questions



What do you think your audience's expectations of your film's genre are before they watch your film  ? What are they expecting to see ?
( plot, characters, events, themes etc.)


What do you want the emotional responses of the the audience to your film to be ? What do you want them to think about ?
( excitement, terror,sympathy, happiness, laughter, social themes, relating to characters, etc. )




 Is your promotion pack ( including poster, storyboard and/or demo sequence ) an effective preview of the content and preferred  emotional effect of your film idea ?
Did your  target audience suggest any strengths, weaknesses or things that would be changed before the  film version ?
Can you think of any changes to make your film more effective ?


How would you encourage fandom and repeat viewings  for your film after it has  been released ? (Website,  fan page, re-release,viral social media campaign etc.)


Based on industry examples( see here for guide), give rough timeline of how and when your film would be released in various formats ( cinema, DVD, online etc.)

ORIGINAL FILM PROMOTION PACK : Storyboard sequence from film

Create a  storyboard ( 4 shots minimum)  storyboard  of a scene  from your original film idea. This could be the opening sequence or another suitable scene  from the film, and should be between 30 seconds  and 3 minutes in length.  Your storyboard should include ideas for camera movement and framing and any  music, dialogue and sound effects.

The purpose of this task is to give a taste of your film to your target audience. Show your storyboard to other students and ask for feedback.






EXTENSION :  If you have time , shoot a rough demo ( demonstration ) version of a scene using the ideas in the storyboard.  This rough version does not need to look exactly like the  final film
( costume, special effects, setting ,actors etc. ) but should follow the  dialogue , camera shots and plot that would be in your final film release.
