I agree with some of the points, such as the splitting it into paragraphs, I also agree with the untidiness as well. This feedback will help me improve my blog as they are positively helping me get a higher grade.

The enterprise skills for this included teamwork and cooperation as my peers looked at my work and told me what I done well and what I need to improve for next time. The reason  why these skills help me is because I can ask my peers for their response about what I need to improve my work. 

I am undertaking this research as it is part of my Unit 7 Creative Media. For my Creative Media I am making a game trailer for the game I am creating Games Development called Blood Ties: The Vendetta (the trailer is below this). 

I have done a game trailer as this is an effective way of selling my game as it will make my game sell more quickly as people are interested. 

I am undertaking this research as I am doing it for my Unit 7 Creative Media. For Unit 7 I am making a game trailer for the game I am creating in Games Development called Blood Ties: The Vendetta.

I have decided to do this as it will sell my game more and get more interest from people (the trailer for my game is down below). 

The research I done to see what would do best to sell. Some of the research I looked at included was looking at live action game trailers, game trailers and what makes a good game trailer etc... I looked at live action trailers mostly as I feel this is a good way to film a trailer and to sell the characters more to the viewers. The research also included seeing what made a good trailer using a range of varied skills, which would consequently lead to the product being sold because of the trailer standing out the audience, subsequently meaning that the viewer is interested in the product. 

Most of the research took place on the internet as that is where most trailers are. There are some trailers on social media for example: Facebook and Twitter and on websites.

Most game trailers have an in depth description of the main characters like the protagonist and antagonist. They also have quick shots, dramatic music (which is either fast tempo or slow tempo). 

Primary research is where you find the research you self. This means that the information is correct. This is a good way of collecting information as you go out and collect it yourself. Some of the primary research included doing a question and analysis. Some of the people who answered the questionnaire were between the age of 15-24, mainly males with a handful of females answering. Also, some of the questions included, when watching a game trailer what do you want to see from it, how long should a game trailer be, how often do you watch game trailers and if you watch a game trailer will you go and buy the game. 

When I was doing research, it was secondary research as someone else has already looked into the research. The research I looked at could possibly be incorrect as someone else has researched it and changed the results. Some other research I done included looking into other games that are similar to mine and how they have made a successful game trailer to sell their game to the audience that are watching the trailer. The research also included seeing what similar games have in their game that I could potentially have in my game to make mine even better. 

The enterprise skills used here included innovative thinking and problem solving. I had to use innovative thinking as I had to see what made the game successful and what was unsuccessful in the game and how could I improve on the mistakes that was in the similar games to my game. The research also included in this is was making sure that the research wasn't biased, this lead to me using the enterprise skill problem solving so I could see how to change problems that might happen whilst making my product. 

Consumer research is where you ask questions to people by sending questions through the post, telephone them and ask them. This a way of getting to potential customers to buy the product as they are possibly interested in it. Aimed at the behaviour of the customers, through a telephone, face to face interviews and mail surveys. 

I used this in my research, when I made the questionnaire and analysis, to see what game genres/platformers people want to have the most and what genre they will play the most if the game stands out to them.

Doing market research allows you to see how to improve your product to potentially grab new customers. This allows you to make more profit with new customers buying the product all the time. Where is the best sell locations around the world, shopping characteristics. Involves both primary and secondary research. Short, to the point, addressed to specific individuals. 

Some of the market research I done included seeing how much games of my genre cost in different shops, this would determine where I would sell my game. 

A contractual brief is a document which is shared between a client and the company. The layout is clear which allows the client to understand the brief without getting confused. It outlines what the company have to do and how the company will organize their work. 

This type of brief is where two or more companies get the same brief from the client. This allows for the two companies to work together to make the product. An advantage of a co-operative brief is it gives out easy information to the client as well as the two companies.

The products will be sold online or at different shops. Online you can buy it from Amazon, Ebay or a shops online website.

It is distributed across the world for example: you can buy it in Great Britain, the Americas, Europe, Asia, and in Australia. This is so countries get to have the product and instead of only certain countries having the product.

Some of the ways the product can meet the requirements are by standing out to the audience, if it interests the viewers they are most likely to go and buy the game, another reason is if it is a sequel to something already out, this will make customers get the product to see if the new product will be as good as the first product. The product will also need to meet requirements if the target audience is correct, if it is child friendly (e.g. blood/gore, language, violence anything inappropriate.) 

The market success all depends on the opinion of the customers,if they like the product they are more likely to buy it, meaning  the success will be high and the more profit will come in whereas, if they don't like it then they will not buy it and there will be no sales or profit. 

Nevertheless, if someone buys the product second hand, then the product is still being sold and profits are being made. However, if a company brings out a new product similar to your product that appeals to a more varied range of people then the rival's product is going to get more profit than yours. This is a main problem that many companies face on a day-to-day bases, the best product means the best sales and profit. 

Call of Duty Black Ops 3, 6 November 2015,Treyarch, Beenox, Raven Software, Mercenary Technology,is an FPS (First Person Shooter), has a similar trailer to mine as it shows some of the main characters in the game throughout the trailer, it also shows some fighting that will occur either online against other real life people or in the campaign where you fight the AI. Near the end of the trailer, there is a clip of the game mode "Zombies". This is where the player either in solo or multiplayer can fight zombies, which are consequently, put into rounds, which get harder as the player progresses through the game mode.

At the start of the trailer, the music builds up to something significant that happens at either the middle or the end of the trailer, this could lead to in showing some new features of the game such as wall-running whilst playing online or something that happens in the campaign that only has a sound clip and no video clip of what has or is about to happen, this is to stop spoilers from the game being released to the public, meaning no one will buy the game as it has been spoiled. 

Black Ops 3's trailer has helped my creation of a game trailer as it shows everything a game trailer should have, the characters, gameplay of the game, game modes (Zombies, Multiplayer), release date and price it will cost to pre order and to buy on release. I have added this into my trailer by showing some of the action scenes of my game as well as the location and setting.

Far Cry Primal, 23 February 2016, Ubisoft Montreal, Ubisoft Shanghai, Ubisoft Toronto, Ubisoft Kiev, is an Action-Adventure open- world, has a trailer similar to mine, due to the reason that the trailer like Black Ops 3 shows some of the fighting that will happen throughout the game i.e. fighting an Elephant, Mammoth, Saber-toothed Tiger, Woolly Rhino, Cave Bear, Cave Lion, Wolf etc... The trailer also reveals that you the player can use "Hunter Vision" this can be used when you are looking for enemies or animals that are bleeding as well as enemies that are hidden so well, that you need to go around where the enemies are and then kill them.  The trailer begins with some slow paced music which will get more fast paced as the trailer gets more exciting and thrilling.

Far Cry Primals trailer has helped me as it has shown me what I need to do to have a successful trailer, which means people will buy my game when it is released. 

Uncharted 4, 10 May 2016, Naughty Dog, trailer shows some of the best parts of the game, for example, it shows the main character Nathan Drake hanging onto  the end of a crane whilst going over a river, before crashing into something, but it fades out to a black screen so no spoilers are given through the trailer. The trailer also shows some fighting scenes in the game, showing the audience that although it is an adventure, but also an action game.

The trailer also shows the character picking up some treasure which could either be something significant for the game's storyline but it could also be showing of some of the games collectibles that are in some of the game's locations. 

The music in the trailer is fast paced which shows that the game is going to be filled with fast paced moments, which are heart seeking to the audience leading them to buy the game but to also enjoy the game. The trailer also shows clips of some multiplayer where characters in the main game are playable in multiplayer. 

Like Far Cry Primal, Uncharted 4's trailer has helped me as it has shown all of the characters that you can play as it multiplayer. This was successful as it also should the campaign characters without spoiling the game for anyone. 

Forza Horizon 3, 27 September 2016, Playground Games, Turn 10 Studios, has a completely different film trailer to other racing game trailers, to start with the trailer shows the player racing against other cars and vehicles such as Helicopters, Aircraft, Buggies and more. The music in the trailer is fast paced which could mean that the drivers are quite young and have lots of energy. 

The trailer also shows some of the location, this is ever done through the camera following the cars while racing or whilst they are in the free roam aspect of the game. The trailer also shows some races against real life opponents, this shows the audience that most of the races are an online race. 

The Forza Horizon 3 trailer has helped me as it has shown me what a trailer should have if the game is an online racing game, it also showed me how to show the world without spending forever going to every location in the game. The trailer also shows some of the vehicles available to the player in the game. 

The Order 1886, 20 February 2015, Ready at Dawn, SIE Santa Monica Studio, is an action- adventure game with a horror aspect. The trailer shows a Victorian London, which is also an alternate history. The music in the trailer is slow paced which means something massive will happen in the game. The trailer also shows the main character and the character that you play as throughout the game. 

The trailer also shows some of the enemies that you fight in the game, the enemies are humans who have been bitten by some weird animal, which subsequently means they turn into the animals. The trailer also shows some of the location in which my game is set. 

The trailer for The Order: 1886 has used loads of skills to sell the trailer. Some of these skills include birds eye view of the location, the player and their allies in the game, as well as the enemies the players throughout the game. 

Doom 4, 13 May 2016, id Software, is an FPS (First Person Shooter), horror game. We can tell that it is a horror game by the trailer, the trailer starts of with the player waking up before it cutting to a scene of the player killing the enemies, which in this case are monsters. From the trailer we can also tell that the game is a FPS, due to the reason that the action is seen through the player's eyes.

However, although Doom 4 is an FPS game, you cannot aim down the sights on the guns you are using, you can only aim down the sights when you have weapon attachments on that gun i.e. scopes.  

The music in the trailer starts of slow paced, it then goes fast paced when the trailer reaches its climax with all the action happening in that segment.

The Doom 4 trailer, has used good skills to sell the game trailer, it shows the enemies through the player's eyes, it also shows some of the blood and gore which you can experience if you play the game. The skills that were used in the trailer could help me with my trailer as it could make the trailer more effective and make sure it persuades the audience to buy the game.

Trailers like mine include the Assassin's Creed Franchise, Far Cry series.

These are like as they stand out to viewers as well as having a catchy title. Some of the skills that make the trailers successful is the way the scene is built, it gives the audience the feel of being there in the trailer as the main character or one of the characters, the environment being shown as if the character is real. This shows the audience that danger is in the characters life and that danger will be part of the players journey throughout the game whether that is avoiding danger or being the danger. Trailers also make the audience feel as if the actual game actually happened in real life and that you (the player/viewers) are taking part in the scenes, in doing so they make the scenery look real to draw the audience in making them buy the product.

The music used also draws the audience in, nevertheless, the fast tempo music with the slow build up makes the audience know something is about to happen, and when the slow build up stops and the fast tempo music starts the action begins.

When trailers are made they often show some of the characters which mainly consist of the protagonist (hero),antagonist (Villain), some of the protagonists/antagonists helpers, who you will come across throughout the game. Making sure the audience understand the game, it is pointless making a game no one knows how to play as no one will buy it, whereas if you create a game where the audience knows what to do then they are more likely to buy it. Also, if the game is a sequel then people are going to buy the game to see if the new game is going to live up to the  first games expectations. 

The enterprise skills used for the section above include commercial awareness as i researched other trailers like mine then i can see what they did well to make their trailer successful, then  see what went wrong for them then improve their mistakes to make sure mine is successful. 

For my game trailer, it will be a live action trailer. I have done this as I feel as if it will be the most effective way of selling the game to people.
