The Current Cut


InQuire - after asking people which magazine name I should use the majority said InQuire, so I designed my font and style on photoshop.

Institution Research



My film will be mainstream seeing as, I am making a typical high budget teen comedy.







20Th Century Fox a mainstream American production and distribution firm. Twentieth Century Pictures was an independent Hollywood motion picture production company. High scale, big budget company which uses typical storylines, famous actors and actresses and the best quality of directors, writers and equipment











Warner Brothers a mainstream American producer of film and television entertainment. It is one of the six major film studios in the United State, like 20Th Century Fox it is a high scale and big budgeted company.







Paramount Pictures similarly to 20Th Century Fox and Warner Brothers, Paramount Pictures is a production and distribution company and is ranked along side with Warners Brothers and 20Th Century Fox as one of the highest grossing movie studios.

I also did some research into the leading independent producer and distributors to compare between the independent and the mainstream companies, these include Lionsgate, Summit Entertainment, The Weinstein Company and Overture Films.





Lionsgate again a American company however, it is independent only producing and distributing films to niche' audiences. Compared to the mainstream production and distribution companies, Lionsgate, Summit Entertainment and other independent companies have a lower budget with less well known actor and actress and as high quality equipment.

S.A.T. - is my production and distribution companies name as it is simple and is the intitials of my name Sophie Adele Teasdale.

Music Research

http://www.benglishandmedia.blogspot.com/

there are links to different free music sights.

    Options when editing my trailer:

  • I can make up songs using software such as Garage band.


  • Use free software such as, http://www.freeplaymusic.com/ .


  • voice over

I have been looking mostly at http://www.unsignedbandweb.com/IndieMusic.html as it has a range of music. http://www.unsignedbandweb.com/music/bands/264/ 'Call me' is one of the songs I am thinking to use in my trailer when 'Ella' and 'Adam' are walking in slow motion (Edited)

I've decided to use a myspace band named Harry Bird and the rubber wellies

for the introduction and ending of my trailer 'March upon the Jailhouse' and 'La Grietita'.
