BFI trip notes:
Audience's cinema views:
Prestige - Very educational, films that have purpose of more than just for recreational viewing
Arthouse - Usually low budget, and focuses more on the art of filming, including cinematography, narrative, plot, etc
Multiplex - Very mainstream films, total opposite of prestige, but quite similar to arthouse, not including the low-budget build
Prestige and arthouse films work very well with sub-genres such as social realism - people can really relate, and as a result it appeals to them, rather than appealing from the film arts aspect and so.
Filming companies as of now:
Two companies, Warp Films & Vertigo have sort of pioneered the British film industry.
Warp films - Company based in Sheffield, UK, and also has a franchise in Melbourne, Australia
Vertigo films - Company formed in June, 2002 and has notable movies produced by them

Hunting Season - it's that time of the year, again...
It's that time of the year, again. You could say its an animal documentary being replayed over and over again, but the deeper roots of the violent nature that British, teenager gangs hold is much more surreal. Gang life is not a choice, it is a lifestyle to survive. Survive the hunting season, where predator and prey meet.
Immerse into the London gang life. Drugs, guns, drama, violence is what haunts those in the hunting pack. These tortured souls will end life without hesitation, it is their duty to keep themselves on top of the food chain. They will smoke on their cancer sticks, shoot if even irritated, and serve as a catalyst in the sadistic game. They are ruthless dogs that have no feeling or emotion.
Hunting Season - the cast
Meet Hunting Season's Malik - a former gang member that has been in redemption, however his killer instinct still doesn't keep him away. He's left the gang, but the gang hasn't left him one bit. Malik who walks with his friend, Lucas - a former drug trafficker is traumatized from his reminders in the very tunnel they walk on. The ultra-violence once happened in the tunnel, and the dead souls still wander and haunt him.
The don, Donald Price "Don". The godfather of the gang. Respected by all. He's notorious for endless crimes, and he's just the bigger image behind the happenings. He had once sent mercenaries to kill Malik in the way tunnel him and Lucas walk on...
Hunting Season - the crew
The film production crew offers all realistic conventions of the British gang life. The editing has been shown to draw people in more for the sinister life that gangs offer. Each perfectly placed shot, each perfect detail, and each perfect motion offers the experience. It explores the deeper things that go on, rather than the surface of things. It truly tries to appeal from a cinematic perspective in order to make the true face of gang life as interesting as it already is. Explicit material is also shown, in order to emphasize the unknown agriculture.
