Evaluation- Activity 3






My names lily and this is my DIRECTORS COMMENTARY in the style of a voice over.


Firstly i choose to start my film by saying that what the audience is about to watch is a true story, as the audience believes that once its happened in someones elses life it could easily happen to them making the film really hit home and create a bigger atmosphere, as the film that i have produced is a thriller the most important thing is to create a scary atmosphere and feel so that the film is delivered to the audience in all the right ways. I have also added a voiceover through my film so that the audience gets a clearer understanding of the events that have happened to the young girl in the film, i also end on a cliff hanger so that the audience will have an open mind of what could happen next.


I choose to take the production company name of a 'Scrapbook production company' as it is a company that already exists and i feel that a film like 'behind the screen' would be something that would fit in to how they produce their media, Scrapbook Productions is a film & media production company based in the UK, producing short films, music videos, documentaries and corporate videos. As the film i have produced is in some way slightly like a documentary at the beginning through the voice over as if the young girl is looking back on what has happened.


As a distributer its their job to get the film out into the media for people to go and watch and make sure that people are going to want to watch it, so from allot of research i have chosen 'screen gems' as they have produced films that are very similar to mine where there is a young girl taking to much trust in someone they don't really know, which causes major issues within their lives and they regret what has happened. Screen Gems have produced many different genre of film. Screen Gems produces and distributes films that don't have a big enough budget to be produced by sister studio Columbia Pictures, yet aren't small enough for indie label Sony Pictures Classics. A majority of Screen Gems' releases are thrillers and horror movies. 


To help with the costs of my film i would borrow money, making sure that my film would be able to then over come these costs also i would show my film in film festivals hoping to find companies to help out with cost for example 'film london'.


I have shown the production company, cast and editors names in the titles through my opening sequence and ending with the main title. I choose to put my title last as the voiceover i have also chose to be at the end adds to the climax of the film title as i have left the title and voice over to be open minded by the audience.


My film would some what similar to many films that are already in the industry such as; Taken, Roommate, Sliding Doors and many more these are all films with people that have split personalities and incorporate many bad events.




This is the logo i have chosen to present with my film, and if the film was to be published in the industry then this logo would advertise the final film. I have chosen contrasting colours and a scroll for the main image reflecting 'scrapbook productions'.
