The first part of the evaluation.

The second part of the evaluation in which Callum and Riley discuss what they learned about technology.

The final part of the evaluation in which we state what we learned between making the preliminary task and making the final product.

More Problems


We had more problems on the second day of filming this is, again, unfortunately, not all of them...

Alternate Vesrion


Just as an attempt to test how minor details can alter a film's interpretation we have created an alternate version of our project. The footage remains the same but the music and text font have been changed giving the film a more '80s vibe'.

Finished

We have made some changes to our film - most notably adding some context at the beginning of the film, letting the audience know the good guys are policemen, and altering the ending of the film to give the opening a more suspenseful feel. The film is not yet completely finished - some changes need to be made regarding the stability of certain shots.

KICK-ASS Case Study

How was KICK-ASS marketed?

  • Posters
  • Trailers
  • Social Networking
  • Other advertisements (eg Radio)
How was it received?
Well. The film developed a cult following and the film made an overall profit of 3 times its initial profit

What makes it a 'Brit Flick'?
The film is written by a British writer - using British humour - and made by a British production company.

In which ways could it be considered a 21st Century, postmodern film?
The film uses modern sites like MySpace which shows that the film is not trying to be 'the new Batman'.
