If we released out film for real once completed, my group and I would probably send copies to little cinema companies or independent cinemas, for example The Screen On The Green in Islington, or HMV Curzons as they both support student films.


For our marketing campaign we would probably send copies of posters or trailers to places like NME Magazine, or other music magazines that go with the theme of our film, music magazines especially, though. We would also ask for posters or flyers to be put up in music venues and other similar places to get younger people coming to the film, as that would be who we would aim it at. Also, we would ask Facebook and MySpace to put advertisements on the side of the home page to get teenagers interested, as they spend a lot of time on social networking sites.





For our sponsors we would probably contact Film Four and Film London for their help to screen our films or to at least help us with the promotion. This would mean that our film would be seen by many different people, including big names in the film business, like Working Title directors, etc. Another thing would be to ask college if they would allow us to put up posters around the place, for example in the main hall to generate more interest. Local shops would be approached too, as they could put flyers in their windows around schools and other areas teenagers are seen a lot.

For synergy, we would make our own tarot cards to sell to people as merchandise, as well as t-shirts with 'the Reading' printed on the front to advertise on people on the streets. The soundtrack could also be released on CD or download if it was popular enough, as all of this would help us earn profit to make bigger films next time around
