Production and Development

We researched the website www.imdb.com and found an up to date horror film called "Playback(II)" which is very similar to our genre choice. It includes fast paced cutting scenes and a homemade movie feel to it which is what we would like add to our 2 minute film opening. As this film is going to be released this current year it will be more useful for market research as they may explore new ways of promoting the film.

The Trailer

Playback (II) has been released in the USA and the certification rating was R (Bloody violence, sexual content/nudity and some teen partying). At the beginning of the trailer it says "UNDER 17 REQUIRES ACCOMPANYING PARENT OR ADULT GUARDIAN" so over here in the UK I think the film would be certified as a 15. This is also the audience that we would like to target, as they are the most popular target audience which will bring us more viewers. Also some of our scenes may appear to graphic for younger viewers.

This is the only information we can find out on the film playback. My group will have to find a new film to research as this film has not been released in the UK yet.
