Pitch questions and answers

As a group, we created a pitch with included the plot, character information, who we wish to work in synergy with, recce pictures, target audience and certification.  

After sharing our work with the class, we then had to answer a few questions our classmates wanted us to answer. We used an element of google slides in order of them to be able to ask the questions online and anonymously.




Questions 

1. If your demographic age group is 15-18 your cutting out the 19-25 year old's, wouldn't you rather have a wider age range to attract more people ?
2. In synergy to produce or to distribute the film?
3. This sounds like a scene from a film maybe half way through, how are you going to make it clear it is an opening?

Answers

1. Yes, we wish to have a wide range of viewers enjoying this film, however, we chose 15-18 age range to base an age certification on it. From having this certification, it shows that only 15 year olds and over can watch this film. As it is a 15, we are able to show violence and gore but not in great detail.
2. Miramax have experience producing and distributing films therefore, if we work with this company, we are able to do both. By working with this institution, we are able to create good advertising as well and producing as they have more experience.
3. In order to ensure the audience is aware that it is an opening, we decided to make it appear as though the scene was just a bad dream. However, when she walks to the bathroom to rinse her face, the audience can see a red balloon floating past. This then gives the audience the idea that the horror is only just beginning.
