CCR 2

 This is my CCR 2 which explains about how does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text?



ccr2 




this is my script : 

Our demographic target audience are male from the age group of 17 - 35 , we target them ,because we think that they might enjoy our movie because it has many violence which are wanted by people from people in the age range , We also target south east asian people , because our movie actors is from Indonesia which is southeast asia so we would want to target people from southeast asia . and we also target western people , because our action movie are mostly inspired from western movies so it could attract many western people to watch the movie. 


Our psychographic target audiences are motorcycle riders , thrill seekers and people who like fighting and revenge , we target motorcycle rider , because in our movie the main character were shown using motorcycle so this could help attract motorcycle riders and we add brutal fighting scene which would attract people who like fighting and thrill seekers , our movie is also about a person seeking for revenge so this would attract people that like to see someone taking revenge.




Our age rating is 17 ++ because our movie has many violence and blood and brutal fight scenes which is not necessary for people below 17 to watch 

 

Our distribution company is lionsgate we chose this distribution company because this company have release many action movie which is successful in the film industry like John Wick . and we will promote our movie through advertisement in social medias like instagram and youtube , we use this because many people use youtube and instagram so many people could see our ad and maybe interested to watch our movie . 


Audience could watch our movie from cinema and streaming sites such as netflix .

This is the drone that we used to record aerial footage of our character riding a motorcycle and climbing the walls. This device made it extremely useful when it comes to recording far-distance third-person point of view.


This picture depicts Gusde and Maha discussing about how we're going to use a drone to shoot Candra climbing the wall.


This picture shows us reviewing the footage that we shot after the take.


This picture shows our actor "Mark Choi" getting ready on a motorbike to shoot our very first scene.

Dominant Reading

 This is the visualisation of our dominant reading which is created by Gusde

Dominant Reading

 Group:


This is just a quick catch up session that we did as a group. We thought it would be a good idea to check what our intended dominant readings are for the different things being represented in our film opening. We have recently learned about Stuart Hall’s Reception Theory with Dominant, Oppositional, and Negotiated readings. For our media text to be successful, we want to make sure the message is clear and able to reach the correct audience. Below we will discuss our intended readings, and compare them to the intended readings we made in our Statement of Intent earlier on in the project. It will be interesting to see if our ideas have evolved. 




List 

Our intended 

Dominant Reading

How we will achieve this with technical elements

Individuals 

Boss


Candra


Powerful in terms of strength and influence

Dedicated smart strong


Mise en scene: Suit, Luxurious Chair, Menacing smile
Camera:Low Angle


Social group

Criminals



We wish to represent criminals and be evil and unjust.


This will be primarily shown with the bosses fighting style being dirty and unfair.

Places

Boss office







Road


We want to show the bosses main “office” to be a place fit for a king and extravagant a reflection of a his 

power and influence

As we can see here this is done with dark moody lighting. The dark wooden floor gives a rustic and luxurious feel. The boss also sits in a central position showing power within the room. The room is also a bit dirty and industrial with exposed piping this shows that he may be a careless person.

Events

Fighting





Seduction


The fighting in this opening will be intense and over the top which we hope will add to the comedic 

~ Abusing multiple cuts (make sure it has enough time frame for the audience to understand)
~ Close up shots

~ Gay Element for seduction

Overall Message

We wanted to show that evil or bad may be good in the short time but good will prevail in the long run.

How are these similar or different from your Statement of Intent?

  • The bosses character traits are similar

  • We want to reduce the vitality and amount of guards but we will still use them as comedic value.


Reflection : The dominant reading helps us to get our shooting more organise since it is already organised according to what should we do first .

screen test : audience feedback

 This post explains how we showed a rough draft of our film opening to some members of our target audience in order to receive helpful feedback. The questions were made together. Data collection was made done by me and Maha and the blog/analysis was done by Gusde .

The purpose of a screen test is to gain audience feedback about our work and see if their are any improvements that can be made. We decided to use Google for to create a survey to share with our audience because it's easy to use make a forms from and has all the features we need such us uploading videos, and a variety of question types. Here are our questions: 

1.Which of these options do you think fits our movie title the best?

2.What do you think is missing in our movie that could be added or improved?

3.Which of these typefaces/fonts would fit the title?

4.How well do you think we portrayed the characters in this movie and how can we improve the representation of our movie?

5.Optional : what song or score would fit our fight scene? (Please Mention name of song and artist.)

We chose these questions because these were the areas that we needed the most feedback and outside opinions for We showed the clip to 4 members of our target audience to ensure that the feedback we receive is appropriate. Finding people for the screen test was easy/difficult because well four people is not alot of people some may not be motivated to watch a short film then answer questions which sometimes aren't multiple choice. Here is the draft that we showed audiences for the screen test: 

Video

Here are the results from the audience feedback:




From the feedback we learned firstly on the negative side we needed to improve our editting which is fair but we hope to soon fix this by using Capcut premium which has more unlocked features which gives us more creative. Also the sound was a bit bad as we didnt have proper mics our sound equipment in the location and our sound effects also need to be improved. Lastly one participants aswell commented about the supar video quality probably due to the use of phones as the lack of light in the location. But on the good side people said our acting was very good and as for the questions about the type font people choose Zenaida and for the title people liked Mark Choi: No Mercy.

We are going to change the use of forms as due to it being online peoples responses were minimal and lacked more information. I think next time well use focus groups instead as it allows for more indepth data collection which can give us more feedback and opinions.

This screen test was a useful part of our process because it gaves us feeback to help us improve and gave us a second opinio which helped settle decisions for us.

Reflection: This screentest helps me to know what we should fix in our film intro and what to improve , also we know what title and font are the best for our film opening , this would helps us to maximize our intro .

organising our footage

 This blog post consist of how we organize our footage after shooting.

The apps we used to edit are : 

 
We use Capcut to edit our video and uses Canva to edit our font and typeface . We chose to use Capcut to edit our intro , because Capcut have a lot of feature such as many choices of effects that we could use and  we could acces easily and the app are mostly free , so it is the best option for us , and we could acces capcut easily . 


we used this app as a way to control the drone and transfer footage from our drone. A problem I encounter was due to connection issues controlling the drone would be hard as there was a noticable delay which made it hard to do micro adjustments and keep the drone in a good position. To solve this problem I had 2 solutions: A I would get a controller and be able to use DJI’s proprietary wireless solution instead of wifi from my phone to the drone but that would include buying more expensive equipment. So instead I trusted the drones ability to fly and track targets autonimously but this meant I had no control over the drones actions. Aswell during the transfer of the footage the drone would often disconnect from the phone which meant it had to be reconnected to continue the download, again the only solution to this was to get a remote as it could transfer faster and would be in the form of an SD.


ONLINE

Google drive: 





Google drive is very useful to store videos as it keeps the resolution of the video the same unlike other apps which might reduce the quality of the video , this helps us to organise which clips do we use and which typeface and fonts we use we put it in the google drive , however the time needed to upload the video into the drive is a lot , which makes it longer to share videos through the files , our solution is to use other device first so that we could use time as effective as possible


whatsapp : 






Whatsapp really helps us communicate long distance , also we are used to using this app which makes us easier to communicate with each other , also this app has a call feature which helps us communicate through call so that we can have better communication between each member of the group , however when sending videos or photos through whatsapp the quality of the video or photo would be bad , so we use google drive to share the videos and other important things related to our project .

Also most of the footage is in maha's phone , because we use his phone to record and edit the video so most of the footage is on his phone.


reflection : These apps helps us a lot on doing the opening scene , because it helps us to edit and transfer video through one another , and this helps us communicate to send feedback and ideas for the opening scene .
