Ideas for assignment

I've had a few ideas for the 'media issue' that I'll pursue via this blog:

a) look at day and date releasing and the schedule of 'blockbuster' or
'tentpole' films due for release in Summer 2005
b) look at the marketing and promotion strategies for the 3 British short films that received Oscar nominations this year (this would be of most direct practical use to me in marketing my own short films) http://www.oscars.org/77academyawards/nomswins.html
c) track the release of a film due out next week - what marketing approach is it taking, what audience is it aiming for, how does it perform in the box office, what are reviews like etc etc

I may check these ideas out with David Grigg online.
Comments:
Great start Stuart, Alistair Scott is the tutor on this section with whom you should check out your ideas. To me they sound good, especially tracking something that you have a particular interest in. Have a look at Channel 4 Short film, check out MMoL noticeboard fo link...
