Final Film

Final Draft (Actual film)
This is our final film after many attempts of filing and re-evaluating the design and plot of the film, we ended up changing the overall idea and characteristics o our character and how we want them perceived. We've changed the roles of the characters making the female the lead villain and the male the side character with the focus on the female character going against social trends. The film opening is based on  introducing the character and what she is capable of. As a group we have decided on this idea as we thought it would be best to create and mould a better story round and we stick by these changes and hope it has created a good opening. We have grown and developed as a group in teamwork as well as individual work it has also help develop our media skills in filmmaking and general knowledge

(Culmination of Research) The three main components of film

Research
The three keys to film 

There are three components needed in order to make a film that works. These three components result in a film being successful or not as if these three cannot work in synergy then there is not chance a film would work as there would be no sense of director,flow or understanding of whats going on. It is also likely that no one would want to see it when its missing a certain aspect like a 'Bankable Star'
These paragraphs outline what these three key elements mean to a film


Effect of a Director on film 

The effect of a Director on film is immense, they are entirely relied upon to piece a film together from scratch form directing every single shot to where the actor should be looking during a scene. The film director gives direction to the cast and crew and creates an overall vision through which a film eventually becomes realized, or noticed. Directors need to be able to mediate differences in creative visions and stay in the boundaries of the films budget. There are different paths to becoming a director, A lot of directors come within the same business of film making they could even of been a screenwriters,editors or even actors. Others have likely attended film school in order to become a director,Directors can vary from the way they work Some like to give a plot line and allow actors to improve upon the dialogue and improvise a little while others want to control every aspect of production. Some directors even end up composing, editing and writing the screenplays for their
films


Effect of a Script on film

A script is a written piece of work that is created/drafted by the screenwriters or maybe even directors. It dictates the dialogue of the film and how actors carry out the script giving different emotions, movements actions and expressions for the actors to achieve and replicate to the directors and screenwriters satisfaction. A script is first drafted and read through in order to decide whether the story is workable and set in the right state and whether the situation of what the actors say and do works within the film, everything can be down to the wire sometimes when it comes to a script and other times it be used as a guideline to follow if the director feels that they can improvise with s scene or to creating a diversity in the use of scripts, anyone who is working on the film is likely to be given a script especially the actors with visible indications of what they are meant to say and act out in their scenes. A script is mandatory for a film to work as shooting can go on for months at a time and the amount of scenes and writing within the film can not be remembered entirely which may result in the films vision and idealisation being lost

The effect a Bankable star has on a Film

a bankable star is one of the "3 minimum ingredients to any film package", the other two being a successful director and a script or a strong story idea. The involvement of a bankable star in a film gives investors confidence that they will achieve a return on their investments. The idea is that a bankable star will make audiences want to watch the films that are being produced by the companies that are distributing the film across many countries as a 'Bankable star' is likely to get noticed by the average movie goer which makes the movie goer consider watching the movie as the star gives the incentive its a movie worth watching as it has a actor they know or have heard of. A Bankable star can also dictate whether a movie will be made as they guarantee an audience, when there is no star present they may decide to scrap the film as it may be too risky with the idea that they are putting forward to use an actor/ star which is not known is probably not going to get a large audience as the actor isn't likely to have a following. Bankable stars are likely to have higher pay checks for their services but good reason too as the more known the actor is the likely hood of the size of his following is going to be too,They dictate whether a movie can be successful sometimes as they provide a reason for the audience to watch the film
