promoting and marketing my flim idea

Promoting and marketing:

because my film idea is quite a niche audience, contemperary and low budget styled movie i would not be looking at big adverts on buses, bus stops and benches. Instead i would probally be looking to preview it at a small arts houses afew times to spread word of mouth. Also because of the new way i intend on filming this movie, it would make sence to advertise it in the same style, to let the audience in on what type of film this is. Once i have spread the word of mouth i then would want to broadcast the film to a wider audience and introduce this style to a more rounded audience.

The Doors - Peace Frog (with lyrics)

or i will use this song for the intro, feel free to comment on which song you think would be better people.

The Who - My Generation

I think that i am going to use this song for my intro to my movie which will be a skateboarding complantation.

Trainspotting (trailer)

this is another influence towards my idea of revelution.

Lords of Dogtown - OFFICIAL Skate Teaser

This is another influence into my movie idea.

Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas (Trailer)

this is one of the films that has inspired me for my movie idea, and style of editing during a few scenes.

film outline

influences:
    - Fear & Lothing In Las Vegas
    - Trainspotting
    -  Lords of Dogtown
Title idea:
    -Revolution
About a group of three boys who are tired of the current social scene and descide its time for a change. So each of them with different skills develop through the movie, and we see their effort on creating a revelution, with mind bending scenes and excentric camera angles and effects.

This film will be appeling to an audience of people age 16-25.

I want this film to be filmed in the style of a skate film, using unique camera angles and lenses like fish eyes, i want this movie to resemble symbolicly that the boys are trying to make a revelution, and i would want to temp with this new style of making a movie with diolouge and all other features of a movie in a new contemperary style.

The intro:
    - i would like the intro music to be either peace frog by the doors or my generation by the who.
    - opening shot, sun rising zooms out and we see the main character skitching (holding on to a moving car on a skateboard).
    - discontinuos cutting.
    - some of the skate shots with credits in using a fisheye camera lense.
    - for my editing i want to enhance the on screen brighter colours, which will give it a more cheerful atmosphere considering it will be film over winter.
    - also for when the title credit comes on im going to have a big shot where the skater grinds a rail down a set of stairs or over a table top doing a wedge ollie and having the title in big bold red capital letters then freesing it on that for a second to emphsise the title.

This is the Animatic for the idea of Revolution.
