PLANNING: Which Studio Will Distribute Your Film?

---

Indents:

At the beginning of a film, different institutions are presented in forms of animated sequences of their logo, including a visual image to link and present the genre of the remainder of the film- advertising their company, whilst also setting a mood with music/silence.

Some Examples of Thriller Movies and Studios work include... 

---

Paramount Pictures:

---

In these Thriller/Horrors, Paramount Pictures introduces itself with a more darker indent and tone, as it usually presents in a daylight setting; now in darker skies, setting a sinister tone and especially with the effective use of silence, making the audience feel "on-edge".  

   In "Case 39" and "Paranormal Activity" ...

Silence is something that I find creative in making the audience hold their breaths and anticipate for the shock at the start of the movie.
It generates suspense, as we lose the satisfaction and company of sound and so our hearing becomes more amplified, as we rely mainly on imagery to help us understand the story, before the climax.

Warner Bros. & New Line Cinema Studios: 

---

These two institutions are extremely effective in absorbing the attention of the audience, because it is well known and well respected- so we expect to see a good film. The creation of the Indents set a tone for "The Conjuring" - indented with horror/thriller sub-genres.

Use of dark, slow and suspenseful synths increases tension and anticipation, with the moving image background of dark storms, evoking suspense. The use of moving images and sound will be something our group will consider.

Icon Film Distribution:

---

The opening to a Thriller is an effective with this Studio as it introduces itself with red hues and lightning non-diegetic sound; setting an uneasy tone for the audience. An aspect of this mise-en-scene is something to consider, as the jiggy and strike effects of the text and static non-diegetic sound effects adds to the suspenseful introduction to the film.

WHAT BRAND IMAGE WILL WE PORTRAY THROUGH OUR IDENTS?

---

We need to grab the attention of our audience from the start, meaning: 

• Setting a dark and sinister tone to create suspense and keep our audience on edge is key.

• Doing this, the attention of our audience is key and so when we make our thrilling Distributions, we will focus on details with sound/silence/colours.

• Less is more, and so we will try and make our audience guess and anticipate the rest of the movie, whilst also keeping them intrigued.
