Film Industry: Black Widow

-

1) The companies involved in the creation of Black Widow are Marvel, Disney, Blitz, Pixstone Images, 4DX, SSVFX, stereo D.

2) Conglomerate ownership is when a large company owns many smaller companies.This links to the production of Black Widow as Disney bought Marvel in 2009 and they had to work together to produce the film as Disney needs marvel as the character is owned by Marvel and now by extension Disney.

3) An aspect of the Black Widow trailer that makes tells you it has a high budget is the established actors that play large roles in the film. Another aspect of the trailer that shows the audience that it has a big budget is the visual affects as they look very realistic and not out of place.

4) Black Widow was promoted to audiences with social media profiles about the movie, traditional methods such as trailers and posters and stars of the film appearing on a range of TV chats shows and press events.

5) The budget was $288.5 million but in the box office it had made $379.8 million. This isn't ideal as a blockbuster like this should make much more profit .However, it is hard to say how much money it actually made because of covid and the release of the film on Disney plus.

6) I wouldn't call Black Widow a successful Hollywood blockbuster as the box office money wasn't high in comparison to other marvel films so the profit wasn't as big as expected .However, overtime Black Widow could have gained a lot of more money due to its release on Disney plus.

7) The film industry is regulated by the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) in the uk .

8) Black Widow was given a 12A because of  the small amount of violence and drinking/smoking scenes.

9) This Marvel Black Widow website promotes the film as it has the trailer which gives the audience insight to what the content of the film has.It also has links to where to buy it and a link to Disney plus - another place to watch it.

10) Audience interaction is such an important aspect of modern film marketing as it spreads awareness of the movie whilst costing nothing for the production and marketing team.

  Q.1-  1/1 Q.2-  1/1 Q.3-  9/12  Expand: dominant red colour where? Is that the main point?  Re-writing this question The advert is trying to convey that this perfume is rich and elegant.In this advert Beyonce is wearing a red dress which connotes to love, passion, elegance and sexuality. The camera angle is low and her facial expression is determined which both portray her as powerful and dominant. This is further emphasised by Beyonce's status as a celebrity.  The high-key lighting is mostly focused on Beyonce as the product is hers and draws the audience's attention to her.  This  advert has text that tells the audience that this product is made by Beyonce which could appeal to more materialistic people (possibly aspirers) as they want to feel as luxurious and elegant as Beyonce . Q.4-  2/2 I think this is one of my strongest questions because I was able to identify the conn...

Reception Theory

1)-The preferred reading is the meaning the producers are trying to communicate to the audience. 2)-The  oppositional reading  is when the audience's opinion goes against the meaning the producers are trying to communicate. 3)-The Harry Brown trailer wants the audience's preferred reading to be that the teenagers are violent and dangerous as they are gang affiliated, criminals and some of them murder. 4)-The oppositional reading of the Harry Brown trailer is that Harry is just as much as a criminal as the teenagers are .This could be the interpretation as in the trailer he is seen with a gun and he wants to take revenge. 150 word McDonalds avert analysis 5)- This McDonalds advert's preferred reading is that the burger is worth the money and fresh. The producers want the audience to  think this as they repeat the word "fresh" and "big"."Big"emphasises that the amount is large giving the impression that the burger is big especially for the price...
