Below is our voiceover and script:
Michael: Our movie is a common type of horror film, it features a slasher type villain, and unsuspecting teens. They share similar conventions to large, well known films such as Scream and Friday 13th and as a result we believe there are many companies who would publish our film.
Craig: Many of these companies can be found on the internet, or at independent film festivals. Websites such as Dead4movie.com – a website for independent films to be published on for free – can be a hot spot for agents to spot raw talent and potential.
Michael: Production companies are large businesses like any other, they seek talent and in return want a share on the profits. These companies provide distributors and they market and, as the title suggests, distribute the film once it is finished.
Michael: Film roles are important regarding their position as the director takes the helm of the product but without editors, actors, and cameramen, there is no way the director can produce a film. This is why teamwork and organization is very important in a film making process.
Michael: There are many things in our film that are common amongst other independent films, and big budget films alike. Here in this scene you can see Craig falling over and crawling away as the villain approaches. This is a very common stereotype in horror films, and while these conventions are commonly parodied and mocked, people do like stereotypical scenes, this is why we used it.
Craig: When people make independent films they take a gamble, as nothing is free to produce and there is no guarantee they’ll make their money back. This is a small price to pay for those determined enough to try to get into the industry, but if it pays off there are many, many opportunities to become successful.
Craig: Thank you for watching our movie.
