The 4 C's

Main Streamer
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VB2PhUijUNM

This commercial is aimed at people who seek security , as they want to protect them selves from anything at all times. This is a good commercial for main streamers because the advert talks about keeping your home safe and comfortable by using alarms.

Aspirers

This commercial is aimed at people who focus more on the looks than the actual product , i would put this section of viewers under Aspierer's. These viewers seek status and are materialistic , also they are acquisitive  and oriented to image and appearance.

Explorers

This commercial is aimed at people who want to explore new things , and people who want to keep up with the future generations of technology. The reason i chose this advert is because it is about the iphone5 , this is the newest phone out so far.

Fish Tank Review

FISH TANK REVIEW






A mother and daughter find themselves locked in an ugly battle over the same man in this drama from writer and director Andr. Mia  is 15 years old and lives in a shabby apartment block with her mother, Joanne and younger sister, Tyler. Mia is a reckless and rebellious teenager who frequently argues with her mother and sister and has run afoul of the authorities at school, leading to her being suspended.

At the start of the film, i wasnt very interested because of the lack of quality in the filming. I noticed that the camera shots were mostly medium. Also the film used lowkey lighting this connotes that the film was going to emotional. The use of mise en scene in the film shows us that the family are low class due to  their clothing in the film.

I enjoyed the way the director picked a main character that couldnt dance, because it makes the film more realistic, it shows us that not everyone succeeds in life. Also i liked the story line and the drama between Mia and Joanne's boyfriend , it creates excitement and tention making the audience want to watch more.

Also i believe that the horse that was locked up symbolised Mia trying to break free in life , as she felt as if she couldnt express herself living at home with her mother and sister. This connotes that the character felt isolated and unwanted

Romeo

I thought the story line was very interesting and I enjoyed the hybrid of the two genre's , as it was a romantic drama. There many different angled shots that i enjoyed in this trailor, especially the shot  at the end where the main character friend shouts the name "Romeo" it shows a exellent way of focusing with a camera.

I also enjoyed the intermate scenes between the male and female charcater this connotes the genre of the film. This also connotes that the main audience for this film would be young female adults round the age of 15 and upwards.

Also the i enjoyed the acting , i liked the way the charcters took their role seriously. There was certain scence that i liked which was when Elliott and Reece were arguing in the house, i thought that was a good was of creating tension and drama.

The Mise en Scene connotes that the film is in modern times as they use colloquialism a great amount of times. This shows one of the reasons why the audience would be young adults.

Fish Tank was funded by UK Film Council and BBC films. Films can be funded by the national lottery. I believe that the target audience for fish tank was young adults and teenagers. The top 3 Genres targeted at the ages of 16-25 is horror , comedy and action , also the distributor of fish tank is IFC films , a film distributor is company which releases a movie to the public.

 The film was promoted in France at the 62nd cannes festival. The trailer of the film hooks audience into the narrative and pose questions that the film will answer is because the trailer highlights a young girl who is living in a deprived area. She also was experiencing family problems which made her feel isolated and alone

The Tailor of Fish Tank shows the hard life of a young teenager living in a council estate , having to deal with problems. The young teenager has a dream of becoming a professional dancer but she cannot fulfill her dream due to her deprived background making her feel worthless and depressed.
