Todorov's Theory For Our Film, VERSES

Title of Our Film

This is the title of our film: VERSES

We chose this as a name, due to the hidden theme in our film, that our protagonist has a desire for poetry. From this, we thought 'verses' would relate well to our chosen storyline. Also, our protagonist is stuck between two scenarios, causing him to way up each option that he's against: his old friends (popular group) vs. new friend.
The look of our title is also important. The font has curved edges to highlight the protagonists struggle as he's not got a straight forward life. Black is used for the title as it appears masculine, appealing to male audiences. The blue background highlights our protagonist is a boy, but the softness appeals to our female audiences. The white light behind the name is to emphasise the pressure our protagonist is under, and that he's in the spotlight and that the story revolves around him.

Billy Elliot 2000 Trailer Analysis

Questionairre For Our Film

From this questionnaire, we have been provided with helpful information that we can use in our trailer. The results let us know who our target audience are, as the teenagers mainly go to the cinema in groups which means we must appeal to a range of people as the audience would more likely go with people that have the same interest. In addition we know what type of music to use in our trailer and fashion sense so the audience feel that they can relate. The most common watched films by our participants are Kidulthood, Adulthood and The Breakfast Club which helps us to know what specific narrative to use in our trailer. Furthermore, we know we need to focus on the characters and what settings we should use.
Overall, this has given us much insight into what we should use in our trailer and we will use these results to improve our profit for our film.
