2) How does Apparition represent particular social groups

Appaition portrays the social group of youth as easily distracted and are easily startled. One scene where this is shown is when Craig walks from the kitchen into the living room, he hears a knocking above him and we see him jump back in shock and disbelief. We portrayed this social group in this way because it allowed there to be a shift in power which allowed use of higher camera angles, this managed to generate suspense which kept the veiwer on the edge of their seat.



Another film that gives a representation of the youth social group is Back To The Future Part III. Marty Mcfly played by Michael J. Fox represents the Youth social group as quick thinking, intelligent to some extent but needs the assistance of others in times of a crisis. This representation is very different to how we represent this social group. e.g. We portray this group as easily scared whereas in Back To The Future this group is portrayed as somewhat brave but in tough situations will tend to run and hide.



One real person that represents the social group of youth is Oliver Gibbs. He portrays the youth social group as hard working and well educated, this opposes the natural stereotype of the youth social group. This person does follow some of the characteristics of our portrayal of the youth social group e.g. can be frightened if caught by suprise. This representation of the youth social group is also quite similar to that portrayed in by Marty in Back To The Future, this is because they both seem to know what to do in bad situations.


3) IMDB Page

After alot of careful thought i decided that Warner Brothers Entertainment Incoporated would be most likely to distribute the film. This is because they have distributed films like Lord Of The Rings and Harry Potter and Apparition is aimed at a similar audience so a distribution company with a reputation of distributing Thriller and science fiction film's would be an ideal distribution company.

5 ) How did you attract your audience
We attracted our audience by issuing a trailer that would be shown between the hours of 5pm and 8pm on Television as well as advertising it online with the same advert. The advert would question the veiwers existing knowledge of thriller films by suggesting to them that they have not seen anything like it before and stating that they will never see anything like it again.





6)What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing the product?

I have learnt how to use FL Studio and Garageband to create soundtracks. I have learnt the best camera angles to use when trying to create a suspensefull atmosphere through the use of canted angles.



screenshots of us using editing software and equiptment.



One thing i learnt about cameras is how effective camera angles can be on the audience. This camera allowed us to shoot in high definition which made the opening sequence seem profesional. One drawback is that it is quite complicated if you don't know how to use the camera and if you shoot in the wrong format or aspect ratio it could ruin the entire film.



One thing that i learnt about Sony Vegas Studios is how to fade the audio in and out and how to use it in general. Since i usually use Windows Live Movie Maker i had to learn most of the features of this software from the start. This software allowed us to make a profesional looking movie by using the effects. One disadvantage is that you have to learn how to use it like all software, which could take a long time

Apparition - Final Cut

response from group S126

-The company logo animation looks very professional
-first establishing shot looks very professional
-The music really sets the atmosphere and it goes with the timing of the clip where the character is revealed.
-I really like the scene where the camera shows the empty grave and then tracks behind a tree to reveal the character standing over the grave.I also like how you've panned behind him making it look like a point of view shot as if someone is watching him.
-theres a shot where hes kneeling down to put some flowers on the grave where it jump cuts to a shot from over his shoulder where i think the scene would look better without this shot.
