Research and Planning - Group Meeting (Production Company Name)

Today we have decided to call our Production company Lens Tech Productions. We think this is a suitable name as Lens is related to filming and we will be using technology.

Research and Planning - Audience

My magazine will be aimed at Teenagers and Young Adults as this is what audience my film trailer will be aimed at. I would like it to be published in Big supermarkets however as its an independent company the budget may not allow this so it will mainly be sold in newsagents.

For my film Trailer we will advertise at bus stops as our budget wont be big and lots of people get the bus so it will attract them to it when they are waiting.

I will also have film posters which we can put up at bus stops and around the town. As we are independent our film will probably only be shown in certain small cinemas for example one that specialises in independent company films.

Research and Planning - Location

We have decided that we are going to film in Haughton Green as it is quite local and should be easy to get to.

Research and Planning - Meeting Post

Today we have decided on the name for our Film Trailer. We asked a few people and we all agreed that it should be called 'Warning'. We think this will suit our plot because it will warn people about drugs.

Research and Planning - Magazine Costume and Props List

For my Magazine I will probably use similar, if not the same costumes as I will for on the poster. As we are doing a social realist film we think the characters should be wearing Tracksuits and trainers all the time to give it the 'chav' element that is portrayed through the genre. Also if the same costumes and characters are used it will let people know that it is the same film and make it more recognisable.

Props
For the props we are thinking of using a toy gun and some pretend drugs as we associate social realism with bad behaviour.

Research and Planning - Group Meeting 3

Today we were using Garage band to create sound for our trailer. We are thinking of getting some rap music to put on the trailer so its urban. We will also probably need to add realistic noises on to the clip to make them louder and stand out more on the trailer.

Unfortunately the clips aren't uploading.
