Product ideas

We have come up with ideas for the 3 products

The first of them will be two webpages. Me and Charles have been working on them at the same level, and therefore they show both of our work evenly

The second of which is a website, which will feature 4 pages, which we will both work on 2 each, evenly spreading the work.

Finally, we are starting work on our film, which will feature both of us, and some friends, meaning the work is spread evenly.

We will film the film trailer around baldock, and places like weston woods, and Ivel Springs will feature heavily. We will also feature conversation scenes in baldock itself, and surrounding areas will also feature in the film. We will shoot some photo first, to see what the place looks like on camera, and if it looks bad or good.

Researching existing campaigns in style

As we are going an website and a very short film, I looked at an existing example of both.

Website

For the website, I looked at the most famous example, F.A.C.T, which stands for the Federation Against Copyright Theft, whose's adverts are featured at the beginning of almost any DVD you can buy now.

This is the home page. As you can see, it seems to be optimized to work well both on computer and mobile, as it has big buttons which would be helpful for people with touchscreens to press, but it also worlds with a mouse, showing it can work even if you have a touchscreen.

This is the page 'How to stay legal' from the F.A.C.T website. It gives you tips about buying real DVD's, warning that if you buy from car boots and similar,you might not be buying from the real deal, and therefore, not giving the original productm as they wouldn't be licensed to sell the product from the original creator, and therefore it would be harder to tell if it an official product, with the person contributing to the original creator, or just making money for themselves, so the site is giving you guidelines.

Lastly, there is this page, about being safe on the internet. It talks about file sharing websites, and while their intentions might be good, they almost always include bad stuff like malware, spyware, and similar. It also gives you good websites that give you even more information on what the file sharing websites can do to your computer

There are more pages to this website, but I've picked 3 to not overwelm the information on this.

2-4 Min film

I found it hard to find a film like the one I plan to make, but I found similar, though shorter.
(This is a place holder until when I can get the video)
It shows a video of an actor giving people dvds, but if they take them, the person next to him loses her job. It shows two people he is giving the dvds to. They may or may not be actors, but that doesn't really matter.
The man takes them, and acts like he doesn't care, or he might just not care.
The lady feels sorry, and doesn't take the dvds

The seller is obviously an actor, and calls the man 'everything wrong with the world', but tells the lady 'she didn't know'
While I want mine to be a bit more believable, this isn't far off what I want my film to be like.
