http://realscreen.com/2018/02/06/bidslate-digital-media-rights-ink-digital-distribution-deal/
BidSlate is a global content distribution platform. They have constructed a 5-year non-executive deal with OTT, and digital video publisher based in New York. The deal covers the distribution of 2 documentaries and 3 other feature-length films. Those films in particular will launch across a variety of digital services like Amazon Prime, Amazon Instant Video, Hulu, Pluto TV, Tubi TV, Google Play, FandangoNow etc. In addition, the films will also be distributed across Digital Media Rights owned and operated OTT channels.
For my film using the BidSlate technique, with gaining distribution partner ships, would benefit my film a lot. Using other distributors to get my film on a variety of platforms in which can expand into more platforms with the amount of distribution each platform carries. Platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter all allow for people to share view and share comments about the film and when they share it many other platforms can get ahold to it which makes it easier to be distributed around.

4.)How did you integrate technologies-software, hardware and online- in this project?
- The software I used were apps I used on my phone. I used my camera app, and the iMovie app on my iPhone to create my film. I merged all my individual takes into one in iMovie because I had difficulty doing so when using the actual camera and trying to upload it to the computer and doing it on the software on the computer. It was much more simple to do it on my cell phone.

3.) How did your production skills develop throughout this project?
-My production skills and my knowledge about production has changed a great deal throughout the project. I was presented with many ways to produce the film but I chose to use my cell phone. My cellphone was what I found to be more useful because I was having to many technical difficulties with the camera. To receive the angles I used in my film, I used a selfie stick in which is a hand held device that allows you to take pictures and videos from a far distance while holding a rod. I also saw that using social media platforms, such as, Facebook, Twitter etc. would help distribute and extend my audience and allow my film to get to more widespread publicity due to people sharing it, re-tweeting it and posting it on other platforms. Using Youtube also served a great purpose because exposing my film to Youtube could allow for a range of people to comment and tell me what I could fix basically giving critiques about my film and what I could do to make it better to please the audience that I would be reaching out to.

2.) How does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text?
- There is a variety of ways to engage an audience. In order to do so, you have find a target audience and identify their interest and incorporate those into your film. My target audience was young adults. I made my characters young and my genre was horror, specifically because when you see a horror movies it involve young couples and or more broadly, young people. In my film I also used a change of scenery and color. Mostly during the film it was natural colors at night, like how you would expect a film to look at night, then once the accident happens the color changes to green. I believe this engages my audience because they then realize something is about to happen an it keeps them anticipated at they will keep watching the film. To distribute the film I would use Facebook and or Twitter to do so because they allow you to be able share videos and pictures and also comment. Twitter seems to be the most effective though because they are a more public social networking site. There's not many private post unless you do it yourself. Whereas Facebook is a more private place. Using motion picture distributors such as Columbia Pictures or Warner Bros would promote my films and expand the brand far being that they have been successful in doing so with horror movies for the past few decades.
