CCR question 2

How does your product engage with audiences, and how would it be distributed as a real media text?

Explain how you chose your genre and the types of audiences that your genre appeals to: Horror has always been something that I have shown an interest in ever since I was young. Which is ironic because I am a big chicken when it comes to scary stuff. The older I have gotten, the less scared I have become, and it has shaped more into curiosity about the genre. As a fan, it has given me so many ideas inspired by other iterations of horror. It's really nice for it to also have that sense of mystery, which allows for more entertaining horror in my opinion since I grow fond of movies with a plot rather than a psycho killer.

Discuss research on audience theories and try to relate your product with them—especially reception theory, participatory culture, cultivation theory, and the hypodermic needle theory: The way that audiences consume media is through promotional teases and build-up hype. This can be found in trailers, posters, and sometimes a little interactive website. This can go on to affect how people take the reception theory with their own beliefs of how a story is made through film with their own perspectives on the outlook.

Explain your plans to distribute your product to the targeted audience (including marketing): I plan to make my movie more immersive, where it can have all the normal stuff found in movies, like a poster and an app and/or game that is able to allow people the same hype that fans of 

Explain how you would try to maximize the circulation of your product to the audience: The way to try to maximize the circulation is to have a deal with a big studio. From there, we can mass market the project and make it appealing to mass audiences. Mainly to the audiences that want to see a horror project like this one, along with creating some merchandise to go with it to help build up some representation from the fans.

How did you integrate technologies—software, hardware, and online—in this project? Explain different types of tools and technologies that helped you throughout the project: I used a camcorder to be my camera to capture this project with the help of a tripod set up to capture some shots that aren't tracking. I also used Adobe Premiere Pro to edit the movie and have Pixabay to give the sound effects and music needed for this project.  Explain the usefulness of YouTube tutorials and internet research: Internet research helped by showing me some media in horror that gave me the inspiration for this project. With a lot of the inspiration coming from the YouTube series called The Backrooms, it's having its own movie soon. Explain how you learned to use hacks and DIY throughout the project: The costumes were DIY for this film, mainly the monster since it is an old Halloween costume that I had back in middle school, and so I made my mother wear it, and she became the monster in my film...

CCR question 3

click here How did your production skills develop throughout this project? Explain how your skills grew from beginner to intermediate: I started out not knowing what to do when originally making the first round project of the original static doors. Since then, I latched onto my idea and wanted to expand on the world-building for this movie that's normally seen throughout movies. Share the process of research and planning: I was inspired by films like IT and WEAPONS to create this idea of horror. I wanted to create a film where big things were happening in a small town. Since the project has to be shorter than a regular movie, the scale needed to be shrunk down in the story so all criteria could be met. The story had to follow a one-person mystery to figure out what's going on with this noise that starts out from the TV but continues on through doors that aren't normal. That's where the story begins, sort of inspired by the backrooms. Share the process of team collaborat...
