Rayanne- Hello I am Rayanne.

Rayanne- Today we are going to talk you through production, distribution and exhibition.

Tanisha- Production is split into two sections. Pre and post production.

Rayanne- pre production is…

Tanisha- And post production is….

Editing video footage Editing the soundtrack/ sound effects/ music Adding titles and graphics Adding special effects Re-shooting certain scenes if required

Rayanne- Our Production Company is “Brownin’ Studios”, they work hand in hand with Metrodome distribution. Brownin studios is an ethnic production company that allows young people (16-25) to produce their own short films. The production company gave us £50,000 as start-up money; We then had to fundraise the rest of money in order to produce the film.

Tanisha- In total we fundraised £250,000. £100,000 was spent on production, £50,000 spent on advertisement e.g. poster, teaser trailers and urban radio ads. The rest was spent on producing DVDs. We gave the left over money to the performing arts fund so other young people have the chance to do what we done.

Rayanne- Our distributing company was Metrodome. A small British distributor, we worked with because Metrodome and Brownin’ studios are vertical integrated.

Tanisha- If we had the chance we would love to work with some of the bigger distributors in America. Such as paramount, 20th Century fox, warner brothers. We would also love to work with Columbia which produced thrillers that had similar conventions to us such as silence of the lambs.

Rayanne- In our opening we made are opening credits appear one after each other in a flash to represent that we all had an equal weight in producing the thriller.
