12.02.2014 - CONSTRUCTION: DISTRIBUTION IDENT

FILM IDENT TUTORIAL 1






I used these tutorials above for help or inspiration for our distribution ident. They were both really interesting and provided valuable resources and information about how long our distribution ident would take to make and upload.

I personally thought of the idea behind our distribution ident. My idea is having a pistol shooting red lipstick bullets while 'STUDIO CANAL' (our chosen distributor) shoots out of the far right hand side. My ideas behind this is that:

1. The main woman in our film opening is being targeted - ending being shot by a pistol
2. The main woman wears striking red lipstick - red is associated with death and love
3. The use of pistols makes the film appear to have a 'grunge' feel and 'dangerous' influence - the girl is in danger of death and is being targeted for an apparent reason
4. Having a pistol shooting out red lipstick bullets isn't usual thought of - this makes the idea inivitive and original
5. We decided on Studio Canal as it is a French based-production company (meaning that it isn't a gigantic, American production company that takes on every film possible) and is selective at the films they decide to take on. For example recent Studio Canal films are:
  • Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011) - a film that is based in the Cold War (1950s) and is like our own film opening
  • The Bling Ring (2013)
  • Man Up (2013)
Also Studio Canal has the third-largest film library in the world.
