Evaluation questions

In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?

What have you learned from your audience feedback?

How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?

Facebook promotion

We decided as a group that our film needed some viral advertisement as viral advertising is free and easy to make. One method we have exercised for this is having created a facebook page that promotes our film that we can also invite people to view and become fans of the film. We hope that this way of promotion will attract more people and hopefully spread to even more over time. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Rock-Bottom/359508851643?created

Synoptic Review

This is a synoptic review of some of the aspects of our media project.

We decided as a group that we would publish our film on the internet video site "Youtube". The reasons we decided this include that by putting our film on the internet, our film would have as much a fair share of possible viewing as every other video on there because of how democratic the internet is in terms of having no single opinion on what should be uploaded and what should be viewed. This also means that our video will not need as much publicizing or advertisement if it were being shown at cinemas as cinemas need to think about the profit of showing film and web content does not. Without worrying about the money, websites are free to have any content uploaded giving it that extra bit of democratic freedom.

Uploading our film to the internet is also our preferred method of distribution because it is the most post-modern way to distribute our film. This is because of how democratic the internet is and how post-modern media is without elitism.
