Research

I’ve got to go upstairs – Research

How to create a press release

I was unsure on the layout and how to right a press release, so I decided to search a few sites for information. Here are the sites I used.

Interactive Trailer

I had a look at several interactive trailers and normal trailers to help me base my EPK and trailer on, here are the sites I visited to gather this information.

I choose these films to research on because they interest me and they have a level of greatness that I aspire to.
Cinematography

I wanted to create a dark cinematography so I tried to find out the history of cinematography and how to create a solid cinematography.

Royalty free sound

I wanted to find royalty free sound, to make my film totally independent. Also I wanted a car crash sound, creating a car crash sound would be expensive.
