What is a production company?
The production company plays a huge part in the creation of a film, and many main roles. They fund the film and organise finances, have involvement in the script, and play a huge part in introducing key ideas. Original Productions is the name of our production company, and is a small company who specialise in creating films which exaggerate typical media stereotypes.
How will you distribute your film 'Missed Calls'?
As our production company is only small, and the film is a small budget film, we will need to use other mediums to distribute our film. After looking through our questionnaire results, many of our target audience agreed a good way for us to distribute our film would be through internet sites such as YouTube. The people who we hope to represent and also target are mainly students, who use the internet, including sites like YouTube and Twitter frequently, so it would be a good opportunity to use YouTube to distribute the film.
What existing films are similar to yours?
Taken is very similar to Missed Calls, as a phone plays a key part in the kidnapp scene. However, in Taken, it is the fact that Kim is able to answer the phone that helps her father find her, whereas in Missed Calls, Sarah doesn't get the chance to answer her phone, resulting on an uncertain future for her.

Where would the money come from to fund your film?
We plan to fund our film through sponsers, as it is rasing awareness of the extremity of media stereotypes, and how they can affect people's lives.

Lowri Williams - Leading role
Alex Davies - Actor
Lauren Owens - Director
