TASK 4: My Evaluation On Our Advert
Me and Gloria decided to advertise the Samsung Galaxy S2. We chose to use this product because we liked this product and we thought that it would be a good choice to advertise a mobile phone.
We then started doing a script list on what was going to be said throughout the advert and what camera shots we were going to use. After that, I created a presentation on Prezi, talking about the history of the product, an overview of the product, the target audience for the product, our idea for the product and the product's main competitors.
We were faithful to our original idea because everything that we wanted to do was done how we planned it to be.
I think that our advert was quite effective because our target audience was for 16-25+ and the advert had 2 people who were in between that age group. It was also effective because the product we used was good and the product was for anyone that liked this phone.
Our slogan was 'Simple. Smart. Sophisticated.' I think this was effective because we used alliteration to make it sound catchy and it showed that the phone was simple to use, it looked liked a smart phone and it was sophisticated.
The technical and aesthetic qualities that I was proud of were the use of different camera angles and shots that were used during the advert. Using different angles made the advert seem less boring and looked good.
I also liked the black and white scenes and the transitions, which showed the girl going into a daydream. I liked that part because it helped the audience to see that she was going in to a daydream and it made the advert have a slight bit of humour to it.
In comparison to a professional TV advertisement, I think that the downfall of our advert was the boarder line used in the advert. I say this because in some scenes our faces were cut off a bit, so you wasn't able to see the full picture of what was going on. Some of the words could of been done using different fonts from online sites to make it look more different and creative, instead of using the same fonts such as 'Arial and Comic Sans'. I also think that the quality of the video wasn't clear enough so that made the advert seem less professional to other TV adverts.

The Film Production Cycle
The main stages of the film cycle are: Production, Marketing & Exchange, Distribution and Audience Consumption.
There are some other film crews that are involved in making a film:
PRODUCTION
- Pre-Production: This is when all the research for the film is done. This includes; getting the actors together, planning where you want the location to be, creating a storyboard and sorting out the budget for the film.
- Production: This is where all the filming takes place. All the planning that was made during pre-production comes together. You make sure that the equipment is there, the actors and the setting is ready.
- Post Production: This is when you start editing the film by adding special effects, add titles, graphics, soundtracks, music and the speed and timing of the film, making sure that all the scenes are in the right order and are recorded properly. You also do some advertisements such as on; posters, billboards and trailers to promote the film.

DISTRIBUTION:
This is when the film is ready to be released to the audience at Cinema's. The filmmakers decide on a date when the film should be released and what Cinema's the film should be screened on. The film gets displayed in some Cinema's for a few weeks as a little tester to see if there's a lot of people that want to watch it. If there's a big audience that want to watch this film, it will be screened longer.
AUDIENCE CONSUMPTION:
This is the most important part of the film cycle. If someone watches at film and they like it, they go and tell others about it and by doing that, more and more people will watch the film and it becomes very popular.
However, if someone watches the film and they didn't think it was good, they go and tell others that they didn't like it and then some people may not bother watching it because of what their friend said about that film.
The audience's reviews on the film could influence the profit for the film because of 'word of mouth'.
