Analysis of how I used my research in my film


Analysis of how I used my research in my film?


After I have completed my audience research, only of my main findings were that 70% of the audience wanted the main character to be both male and female protagonists  however, on the other hand the audience wanted to have the locating of the film opening filmed at a park or a local estate, seeing as this is a normal convention of where a teen urban drama film is located.. The reason being is that an estate is set in a dirty and broken area , whereas a park is a communal area where teenagers go to smoke and drink alcohol with there friends. As a group we decided to have the location set at a night club the remaining 60% of the audience wanted , they also wanted the type of music to be ‘house’ genre music as you would normally hear this at a club. We also thought that it would be a good location as we wanted the characters to be central around a communal area. We also did some film research and the main findings for that  a close up is used to establishes the main character, while using narrative. A soundtrack is used to help create a specific mood for the character or the scene . For our film I have decided to use house music to create the atmosphere, in the opening club scene as well as it starting with film credits. For my own film I began the opening scene with the production logo company  from the distributor ‘film 4’ I used this main company in particular as it advertises films that are specific targeted audiences  that are , males and females and the social class of C2DE. The two main protagonists were a teenage girl  that is mainly shown in mid shots and close ups of her face, whereas the teenage boy was mainly  shown outside smoking with chiaroscuro lighting used on him to create the look of him being mysterious and suspicious. The audience are fully aware of the narrative voiceover of a young teenage boy talking about his battles of drugs in the form of poetry this heavily compliments my film opening. A close up is used on the boy smoking so that audience can see  some of his facial expressions, while again the rest of his body and surroundings are covered by shadows.
