By using colours like black and white through out the ancillary tasks and the film. By using the brand logo throughout all of the products. There are several main techniques we used to maintain the brand image. And by maintaining the fantasy style throughout the products. By constantly using fantasy mystery throughout our products. Which media institution might distribute our product and why is it important to choose the right one for our brand ?

The red eyes are to show his skill as an assassin. Independent media institutions might distribute our product but we chose… Our brand image is that of a lone assassin who has gone astray from his pack, Branding 2)“wolfe” is to show his loyalty to his ways. 3)The habitation brush land was used to show that he is from a different land. Coming from a land far away into one he dose not know, 4)The sharp out line of the logo is to show his precision and skill. Having to sharpen his skills just to survive. The reason why we chose Paramount pictures is because of the previous films they have distributed, for EXAMPLE… Both of these films are fantasy action film which is exactly the same as our films genre.

Although there is still another target audience which I haven't looked at yet and that is… What technologies have you used to gain audience feedback ? 1) Do you think the product is typical of a film trailer? If so in what ways is it similar? We attracted our audience by making the product have… First of all to gain our audience feedback we gave each of our audience members a sheet of paper with 6 questions on it, these questions are… Audience 2) Does anything make it different or does it stand out from the typical?

Outline our target audience ? Fast paced action 4) Name two interesting/impressive elements from the video? As you see above most of our audience approved of the film As we used the audience feedback to decide in which order our scenes should go in etc… After looking back at the feedback I would have done several things differently, for Example… We chose the male target audience as our film has action and villains in it which is generally more appealing to males. 5) Could this product be stronger – if so how? (Try to name at lest 1 element) First of all we had to choose which gender we wanted our target audience to be. Finally we then needed to choose which age range our target audience should be… I would have taken more care with the costume as the trainers were all too visible and got much criticism.
