Today we had three talks on "The Film Business" with various film producers, including one from Nik Powell, Principal of NFTS and (apparently) a co-founder of virgin records with Richard Branson. The talks were really interesting and I learned a lot about getting a short film off the ground in every aspect- including rights, finance and marketing.
After this, we worked on our marketing campaign for our films, preparing for our pitch to editors from 'Total Film' tomorrow! We also completed our film's poster, which will be displayed at the IMAX for its screening on Thursday!
Finally, we had a masterclass from Colin Vaines, producer of films such as 'Coriolanus' and 'Gangs of New York'!
During all of this, the editors began to put together a first cut of the film, which will be shown to all the other groups tomorrow morning. At the end of the day, we got to watch a screening of Noah (for free) in the NFTS cinema! Overall, it was a great day!
