OTS assessed by peer


This is a peer assessing the OTS sequence of our Neo Noir as a focus group, so the film crew can fine tune all of the issues raised. One example of improvement was to cut a shot in which the actress drops out of character, as of which has now been improved.

Final OTS 'JackHammer'


JackHammer from Luke Anderson on Vimeo.

This is not the final video of the OTS called 'JackHammer'. Its initial idea was to be completely different from traditional Noir, therefore rendering as a Neo - Noir. Approximately 1 min, 30 secs. The final OTS can be located on the evaluation presentation. This concept is more of a trailer.

Target audience research

The first consideration is that the film crew has chosen to dispense the marketing strategies by advertising on popular websites on the internet, and by using viral marketing, it's cheap, easy to perform, etc... Two step flow is the definition of this. To market to people surrounded by mass media, then to pass those which they have seen. The majority of people to use this method would be youths/teenagers.
