Week 1 Homework - Case Study Research

Hi guys

This week's focus are your case studies. You need to bring in 4 A4 pieces of refill with research for your chosen case studies.

x1 Hollywood Blockbuster
x1 NZ Film
x1 Arthouse/ Indi film
x1 film that didn't do as well as expected (The Interview)

Here's the information you need to collate:

1. Title of your chosen films
2. Who produced & directed them
3. A-list / drawcard cast or not


Exhibition-
·      Consider type of release, release date and season
·      Was it independent or mainstream?  Who was the target audience?
·      If applicable - how long did the film remain on cinema release?

Consumption-
·      How was the film consumed in NZ?
·      Find out opening weekend box office in NZ – check IMDB and Box Office Mojo.
·      Check sales rank – Google!
·      Research and quote film reviews – what aspects of the film’s production are liked / disliked?
·      Is the film likely to have a sequel?  If so, is it following the mega-franchise model or not?
·      If not, will it potentially be the platform for another in the same genre?

Exchange-
·      Social networking messages / posts
·      Reviews (ie. Amazon)
·      YouTube videos
·      YouTube parodies / spoofs
·      Fan-sites (quantity, quality, extended marketing application ie. Fanmade products)
