   Other than posters there is a whole other world of advertising. It is the year of 2023 and everyone has a phone or computer. Social media is popping, videos on TikTok are getting billions of views and Instagram post are getting millions of likes. So many people are using social media! This leads to the conclusion that social media is the best place to advertise media, such as films.    Instagram has way over two billion users that are consuming media everyday through post. Many actors/actresses, directors and film companies have Instagram accounts. They use their Instagram accounts to assemble a bigger audience, their post will be able to reach millions of people.

#28- Posters (Advertisement Part One)

   Advertising is a big deal when it comes to any type of production of media. There are many ways to advertise media.   Poster are the main way to advertise, for example movies and/or video games. This will help to reach a major audience. People getting off the subway can see this poster, featured in the picture, and will be interested in watching the movie.

I was able to find the sounds of these two from videos on the internet. I layered the sounds on top of each other in the editing process as if both sounds were happening at the same time. I used iMovie on my phone to layer the sounds.         - When Aurora was laying in bed my camera didn't pick up any of the noises of her moving. I had to add sounds of bed sheets moving. I recorded this myself on my phone and added it over the shot.         - Be...
