CALL SHEET 3: Greenscreen Abduction

LOCATION
Setting:
On the media school trip to the greenscreen studio at the location: Centre de Jeunesse Marienthal, rue de Keispelt, L-7411 Marienthal. 

Date: 31/01/17

CASTING
Evie Gibbons (me):
The female killer

Alex Elliott Simon Svensson:
The rapist/scream king 1 (victim)

Since this shoot will be taking place on a school trip to the greenscreen studio and it is very short notice for asking an actor to come, Alex Elliott won't be able to come and act in this scene, so I have found someone else who looks like Alex Elliott to act the role of the scream king 1/rapist 1.

The FILM CYCLE

There are 3 stages in the film cycle, these are:

Production
Distribution
Exhibition

The word for this process/cycle in business scenarios is 'vertical integration'.

In the production stage, this is where the production and creation of idea for a film is. In this process, there needs to be recruitment of actors, editing, filming and screenplay. Before the film is produced the producers have to consider the likely demands of distributors - how will you find investors if your production concept is unlikely to gain distribution. In order to make a success, they need stars. If the film has intellectual property, stars are not always needed (e.g. Harry Potter, Spiderman, The Girl On The Train) because the story itself is already very well known to the audience so they will go and see the film anyway.

In the distribution process, the film that has been produced is now distributed. Each film has it's own distribution plan to be sure it reaches the right audiences. The distributor buys the right to be able to show a movie around the world in different cinemas or shops etc.

The film 'The Girl On The Train' was distributed by Universal:

The US box office for this film was $75.3m:

POSSIBLE POINTS OF INFLUENCE FOR MY FILM

Why the big six wouldn't distribute my film:

• I have no A-list stars or well-known actors in my film. 
• It is not a franchise e.g. Friday the 13th, Halloween.
