What is exhibition?
Exhibition is when the film is actually released in cinemas or on DVD/Blue Ray.
Exhibition is the retail branch of the film industry. It involves not the production or the distribution of motion pictures,
but their public screening, usually for paying customers in a site devoted to such screenings, the movie theater. What
the exhibitor sells is the experience of a film

How would this differ from an independent film?
An independent film would be given less cinema screenings at first because there is more of a risk of it being unsuccessful and the budget is lower, if it does well then usually more are added however to ensure public interest the DVD is bought out sooner
too.

The affected boxes include Honey Nut Cheerios, Trix, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Reese's
Puffs, and Cookie Crisp.
Technological Convergences and Specialized Equipment used in Star Wars the Force Awakens
One of the ways Star Wars: The Force Awakens has used digital technology is through the use of their
official companion app. On the app you can take a selfie of yourself as a Jedi and share it on to social media. This
promotes the film as it spreads the word about the film, which is an example of viral marketing.
Starting with the first new film, we have Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Abrams has long been a proponent of shooting on
film, and indeed he used 35mm to capture the majority of The Force Awakens with cinematographer Dan Mindel, who shot all
of Abrams’ previous movies save for Super 8. However, in addition to 35mm, Abrams and Mindel also used 65mm IMAX
cameras for one specific sequence, the Millennium Falcon chase through Jakku as seen in the first trailer. The movie is being
presented both in 2D and 3D upon release, but as Abrams shot on film, the 3D will be a post-conversion. The Force Awakens is also being showcased in IMAX 3D, which is where fans will get
the full benefit of the IMAX footage.Abrams used 65mm film for Episode VII, and
that Episode VIII is expected to be shot on Kodak film as well.
