Low budget V high budget institution comparison and analysis to be completed. Place onto a powerpoint and upload onto the blog. Choose a big budget blockbuster and compare to a low budget film eg Dark Knight vs Paranormal Activity. Do some research:
1)
What are the main
institutions used for each of the films? (in terms of production and
distribution?) Find their logo and add it on.
2)
How much money was used
to produce each film? (The budget)
3)
How much money was made
from each of the films?
4)
How well known are
the production companies for both the high-budget and low-budget film?
5)
List the differences
between the high-budget film and the low-budget film in terms of the
institutions.
6)
List any similarities
that exist between the high-budget film and the low-budget film in terms of the
institutions.
7)
What other films has the
production company made? Were these as successful? Why/why not?
8)
What genre of films does
the company usually produce? Is this important when considering who could
produce your film? Why?
9)
What audiences do each
of the institutions aim to appeal to? Is this reflected through their film
choice, or does this vary?
10)
Which institution do you
feel outperforms the other and could claim to be more successful, considering
