Today we were learning about The Film Industry, and how they work with different companies to ensure they get the best out of the movies, and the best sets etc. We were learning more about the company Warner Brothers and most of the questions we answered were towards them. It was an interesting lesson and very useful to learn about companies on such a large scale and the history behind it. Here i have included the questions so it is less confusing of what i actually answered :) So enjoy!
1. Briefly explain the information provided on their homepage.
The Dark Knight Homepage on the Warner Bros website contains snaps of the film itself, the sound of the clip has a massive bang like a gun shot, making you want to see more of the trailer and it contains pictures also. It has other links titles by year, titles by cast and titles by genre, these contain other films etc, but the titles by cast contains only the cast of The Dark Knight. It also features a synopsis of the film, so if you haven’t seen it, you will be eager to anyway, and it also has downloads, which contain posters and Buddy Icons.
