Some parts of the slideshow text won't show so I'll just retype them here:



"Stealth media film investment.
 Was used as one of the films production company. Based on the fact that they are well known for their contribution of producing “KidultHood” and “The knife that killed me.” Likewise, it was used because it’s a well-known and respected film company in the UK/London. Therefore because the film is independently produced, this company is independent too. We can encourage a wider audience for the film in particular. "

"TMC films.
Was used as they are known for doing  a variety of production for example , short films , television programmes and sporting events. This could promote the likelihood of our film going down in history, as one of the classical UK independent Youth Dramas."

"UK film council.
Was used as part of our distribution, as our film is UK based. Promoting the awareness of gang culture in London, as well as exploring life in circumstances like this. But was used as both for production and distribution, which will give our product a better stepping stone, in terms of gaining a larger target audience turnout, as they can get reports and news articles based on the film, giving the UK public more awareness of this upcoming film."


"Why slide?
First and for most. These companies were used, as a platform for the media product. Considering that it’s an independent film, it would have allowed us to use their method of release for the product. Meaning that it would have been available as Blu-Ray DVD AFTER A FEW MONTHS. It would have been in local based cinemas and restricted cineworlds (only the UK). As we don’t have the stage to release it on a global scale. However, still would have been difficult to achieve. So it would have been likely for us to only release it on a digital scale. Meaning using the internet to post it online on websites like YouTube.  And it's down to the fact that our target audience is within the ages where they're dominated by the usage of technology. In order to just get our feet wet and start to gain viewed before jumping onto the theatrical stage."

"Impact slide?
 Down to the fact that it’s a independent film. It restricted us with what we could do. In terms of equipment, as obviously it wasn’t a mainstream production, so we wouldn’t have gotten access to the best equipment. So we had to use that things we could afford. Likewise in terms of duration, we didn’t have time to reshoot things until they were perfected. Because of how we were also restricted of time, in a sense where we couldn’t have time to draft and redraft the initial idea (time is money). So which may explain why most of the shots we actually got for the final product were improvised. However, it terms of the credit, we first tried to improvise that as well, but then realising that we would have to justify our reasoning, leading us to go with the universal convention of the typical title sequence credit, nevertheless, we did miss out some bits of the credit but we got mostly what was needed and related to the story."
