The Important of Marketing Media

The Important of Marketing Media

Marketing films are one of the most important stages in releasing a film. If a producer does not put their film out there and make it known to the public’s eyes, many people will not be aware it is there. But marketing is not only about letting friends and family know that the movie is out. It is also about the connections, how producers allow people to access it, and how they market the film.

The first example that can be used is black panther. It was released on February 16,2018. It was distributed by Walt Disney Pictures Motions. That company is already very big and has many connections as well as people who support and view their products. So, they already had many connections that made marketing Black Panther a much-anticipated film for many people. Their actors participated in events and made deals to further promote their movie. Everyone they promoted it to could go to their family and friends and promote it more. They created websites and made merchandise and to choose from to excite their audience and get more people to be interested in the film. They also made money off of many of the ways they promoted themselves.

Furious & can be used as another example. It was distributed by Universal Pictures. This is another big studio. As well as the previous example, this production studio has many connections. Furious 7 was produced by Neal H. Mortiz, Vin Diesel, and Michael Fottrell.  As well as being producers, these three men all have their own platforms which they used to promote their movie to all of their friends, family, and followers. The producers also distributed it to many different platforms to ensure that they were allowing all different types of people to see the film. They held special events to launch their movie and get people excited for it. These events were things like having a new ride at universal studios and marathons. All of these things further contributed to their movie reaching a large audience.

            Another example is Beauty and the Beast. It was distributed by Walt Disney Pictures which is another very big production studio. Along with Walt Disney, it was produced by Mandeville Films. They marketed this film using different brands and shows like Kohl’s, Twinning, The Bachelor, Morgan Taylor, and Silverware. This allowed their film to be release and anticipated by a wide selection of audience members. They also had plenty of merchandise and paired up with store to release items that had to do with the movie.

Marketing is very important. It helps producers get their film known as well as get those audience members extremely excited for their movie. All of the examples that were given, demonstrated the same idea. Each production company made sure that they were getting their movie out there and showing it every chance they had. From universal Events to selling merchandise in department or Disney stores, the producers make sure to promote their films to as many people as possible. I usually discover movies through social media and commercials. Especially when someone I follow posts about a movie. I also notice movies when I am out at an event and it is being promoted. The promotions usually interest me. It also helps make money off their films so that the actors, producers, and people who helped with the film, get other deals and maybe in time release other movies.

I had to use a shareable link because the video was not loading on the blogger. I was able to show my teacher what is going on or any of the people in my group so that I could receive help because we are on lockdown. The only way I could my video on blogger was a shareable link. This was the hardest project. I had to film and edit by myself. Filming and editing were both equally hard. When I was filming, it was hard to talk for so long. But it was hard to edit and cut the videos exactly how I wanted too. I added a lot of transitions and backgrounds to make the film look good. I also was not sure how to insert videos into another video. I learned a lot while editing this. But, I was happy to learn so much. Even though this was hard, I still enjoyed this project.

This was my favorite Project. I really enjoyed this one. My favorite part was filming. I learned a lot about filming during this project. I learned how important angles are. They make or break many scenes. They could either make takes interesting or not so interesting. I did most of the filming for this project. I liked how creative we were for this. I also really liked the theme for our project.

Music Video powerpoint

Shooting this music video was a lot of fun. I was not one of the actors in this film. I helped film. I learned a lot about filming and editing. I learned how to put an audio on a movie. I was able to apply this in other projects. This project was okay. It was not my favorite but, it was still fun. I liked that we had to go off school campus for this one. It made us be able to be more creative.

Commercial Powerpoint

This was our first project. It was a lot of fun. This project was very hard because it was our first one. Editing was the hardest for this project. My favorite part of this project was the planning. It allowed us to be creative, which was fun. I did not enjoy filming though. It was very hot outside and we had to keep re shooting certain takes. Overall, I enjoyed this project. I also learned a lot.

Editing

My team and I have been working on our video. We finishes the content. We now just have to work on the finishing touches. Just making sure we have the rights fonts and sizes. We also have to now add the music. Adding music is personally very hard for me. It is kind of complicated. But, we did finish filming. We also finished adding clips in. The movie looks much better.

We were not able to re film any of the takes we needed to since the coronavirus started. Many of the places closed down or had limited hours. Other places were very big on social distancing. So, it was hard to come together. But, we were able to edit the film enough to where it looks good. We had to crop and edit certain takes. We also had to edit certain things out. Certain things were harder to edit out. Some things were simple to edit out. It would have been easier to retake the takes that we needed.

  

Editing

My team and I have been editing. It has been hard to edit the film. We can only talk over the phone to edit. We also could not get all of our filming done. That also has made it harder to edit. But we are working with what we have. We have been adding music. We also have been trying to make it flow. Some of the previous scenes were choppy. But we are working on the transitions. We are trying to make the movie look as real as possible.

We have also been trying to cut certain parts of the film. Some parts of the film that we could not re do are harder. It is harder to cut and edit those. We also have been working on the titles and names. We are making the fonts match. We are also making sure the sizes of the fonts. We're working on transitions. The film is getting better. As we make certain changes it improves. We are going to continue working.
