In Fear

In fear was released on November 15 2013 and was directed by Jeremy Loverlings. It is an independent film which you are able to watch in independent cinemas but not on the internet. 

On the internet I was not able to find much on In Fear but I was able to find out a little bit. I know that the production company is called Big Talk Productions which have done many other numerous films that we have heard of; Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (2010), Paul (2011), Attack The Block (2011), Sight Seers (2012) and The World's End (2013).  

They have been reviewed by a site called Film School Rejects. (http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/reviews/sundance-2013-review-in-fear-rhunt.php) From the name of the site we already know that they movie was not very good to have gotten on this website. 

They have used different types of marketing stratergies to get viewers such as having a traier which could be watched on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5ZbJgUOwwU. They also have facebook page but only a couple of hundred people like it: https://www.facebook.com/InFearUK, in addition they aso have interviews with the actors about the film:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_XU1Gtq3VY 

Apart from that information I wasn't able to find anything else on the movie. This could be because it is an independent movie and not a lot of people have heard of it. All in all it is a hard movie to know about unless you know that you want to watch it. 

What I've Learned from making the swede

WHAT I'VE LEARNED FROM MAKING A SWEDE

I'v learnt that anyone can make any kind of video from a swede to an actual movie. We now have the technology that we didn't have back then. Everyone now a day is a prosumer which is a person who consumes things from the internet and be able to put things up on the internet. Even if it's just a post on Facebook you are still putting things up on the internet. 

While making our swede we became prosumer because we watched trailers and clips of  Freddy vs Jason to help make our swede. 

We haven't been able to use synergy in our process of making our swede. Synergy is when you use other products to promote your product ad vice versa. An example of this would be The titanic movie plays the song of Celine Dion called 'My heart will go on'. The song is featured in the movie and in the music video you have clips of the movie. They promote each other and so are mutually benefitted.

Our swede didn't include any cross media convergence because weren't a big movie. In hollywood movies you don't much of cross media convergence. One particular movie did include this though, Sky fall 007. In Skyfall the movie it included the song of 'Skyfall' by Adele. This is a cross media convergence because you couldn't have one without the other. 

We definitely used convergent media because we used the macs which have final cut pro to edit our swedes and usually you would do that manually but now  they two have converged and so became convergent technology. Apart from that we did not use any other convergent technology.

We were able to get a lot of people to watch our swede but i think we were also able to get people from different continents to watch our swede and this is our global audience. This was all possible because we uploaded it on youtube and that is on the internet. 

Without the internet or the technology that we have now, we wouldn't have been able to do what we've achieved. The internet now has made the film industry more democratic. 

  

Making Of Freddy Vs. Jason - Presentation

Thor: The Dark World

There are also other ways that they have advertised the movie other than just the trailer. In the underground I've seen numerous posters of the film. I took pictures of 2. The top one is the first poster I saw.

Thor: The Dark World was released on the 30th of October 2013. The first started to Market Thor by releasing a trailer in March 2013 to get the audience interested in the movie. Just from the trailer, the movie began to gain publicity by what could happen in this movie. In the last movie we're left heartbroken because the two lovers were not able to be together but in the trailer release, we were able to see that they reunited again. This was a major factor to the publicity to the film because it captured the viewer’s interest.

The second one is at another stop which I think was in Victoria. What I noticed was that the posters were only located on the stops was there were more people. From this I gathered was a technique that they used to show the poster to more people than less. The box office was amazing; it's been called one of the strongest releases of October of all time. It is suggested that the movie can gross over $75 million during 1 weekend in America. 

Thor 2 has its own website which includes multiple things such as; Merchandise, games for free and which you have to pay, information on the movie and cast. There are even action figures sold to attract the younger audience. The movie is associated to the marvel comics so that also had a big impact in promoting the movie.
