Next year when we complete G324 I am going to want to make a lot of progress as i feel like i will be able to. over the summer i will do a lot more revision of editing as i feel like this is the main technical element that lack in. i feel like now after G321 that my camera composition is very good and also my mise en scene. maybe next time i could also look at improving our sound, using more of it and in a more effective way will make our work look much better and much more professional. if i would have done something differently during this process it would of too have been more organised when completing the work. i left it late with many tasks which means they were rushed and not my full potential so next time i will focus on being much more organised and focused. next year my work will be much better and all four of my technical areas will of improved.

In this evaluation task i will be talking about how we attracted or addressed our audience within the opening couple of minutes of our film. We focused on using a lot of genre conventions and the use of music and also similarities to other films to be able to attract our audience. Below are some captures of parts of our film where i believed we were attracting our target audience.

Right from the start of the film within the first 10 seconds we had already used something that is very similar to other films within our genre. Within Football Factory trains are used all the time throughout the film they transport the hooligans from place to place so we thought as an opening picture we would show a train going past to show the football side of it and also The south west train shows that it is located in London where West Ham football club are

based.

The next part of our film where i believe we attracted some of our audience is when the two hooligans realise who they can see and they start to chase him. this is where the film starts to get exciting as there is some action. some background music is also played it is fast paced to add tension within the scene.All of this attracts the audience as it makes things exciting and therefore makes the audience want to watch more into the film. This is another genre convention the fact that there is a chase scene. There are many different chase scenes in other similar films such as Football Factory. The last snap shot of the film that i have got is seen below. it is a capture from one of the fight scenes within the film. these fight scenes are what I believe attracts a lot of our target audience this is because I know that they enjoy a lot of action and fighting especially themselves when they are at football as my target audience are football hooligans. I think that when my audience sees this in the film they will be even more attracted and want to see even more. they will also willing to tell there friends about it this then increases the amount of people who come and watch our film. This once again is similar to other films of our genre. Football Factory is full of fight scenes that have a lot of blood and that is one of the reasons why it became so well known so we believe by including this type of scenes the audience will increase.

 Below is a picture of a target audience member for our film. As you can see it is a male, we are aiming our film more towards male than female because there is a lot of violence and a lot about football and the general stereotype is that men prefer this more than women. He is a middle aged man. This is the age we will be aiming for our target audience or late 20's. this is because most of the characters in the film are supposed to be around that age as well so we believe that the audience will be able to relate to the story line. The whole films target audience are actually football hooligans these are the type of people we want to be watching our film as i feel that they will want to watch it more than others and will also be able to relate to  it much more. Our target audience will be hard working men. They will shop in shops such as Tessuiti or John Lewis these big branded shops would be perfect for our target audience as they will want to dress smart and causal as they are football hooligans. As you can see from our target audience member below he is wearing a really expensive smart casual coat. They would listen to old type of music such as the Beatles or even a new type of band called the Arctic Monkeys these types of artists is the music that our target audience member listens too. Their favorite TV programme would be Eastenders in the evening as it is the perfect time when they get home from a hard days work and are eating dinner while watching Eastenders. Most our target audience will be family men with kids and wives. favourtite food would be pie and mash just before a game on a Saturday. Lastly a habit that all our target audience will have will be going up the pub with there mates having a couple pints of beer as we feel like this is the typical thing to do if you are a middle aged football hooligan.

A production compnay may be directly responsible for fundraising for the production or may accomplish this through a parent company, partner, or private investor. It handles budgeting, scheduling, scripting, the supply with talent and resources, the organization of staff, the production itself, post-production, distribution, and marketing

  Our production company that produced our film was called 'London Films' this is because our film that we made was a pure British film it was based in England and all characters were English. The film was also based on a set of English hooligans so we felt like it was only necessary to name our production company after the city. We felt like the name was perfect for a production company of a hooligan film. The logo that you can see below is the logo that we created for the production company. We think that the use of images and colours makes it the perfect logo and makes it look very professional and we felt like this was important as we were aiming to keep our film as professional as possible. This will be useful as it will be one of the first images our audiences sees and as long as it looks professional this will give a good effect to our audience and make them want to watch more of the film as they will know that it is not going to be some pathetic type of film. Our film would of used the production company to help them complete the process. Every single actor in the film is introduced in the titles this is because we wanted it to be clear of who everyone was and there roles within the making of the film.
