Research and Planning; Successful Directors and Actors

Successful actors within the film industry during 2013 horror genre films have starred -

- Patrick Joseph Wilson who has been included in the successful horror genre film insidious and the 2013 the conjuring. From having a recognised actor which starred within the successful ‘Insidious’ gave the film ‘The Conjuring’ have a fan base before the film was released within the film industry. However, films within the film industry use famous actors which sell the film towards the audience. Furthermore, horror genre films don't tend to have as many famous actors than other genre films which creates an advantage for us as we are doing a horror genre film and the audience aren't attracted to watching the horror genre film because of the actors compared to when they go and see action films as they include famous well-known actors which sells and appeals towards the audience. Such as Gerard Butler, Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, because these actors are known for being in various genre films from romantic comedy to Action/Adventure, there still aren’t too many horror actors known by the public. As we are doing a horror genre film our unique selling point is not including recognised actors which shall make it successful within the film industry as people would be more willing to watch it despite our inexperienced actors.

- Tobin Bell is the main character within all seven saw films. The film saw is a sequel and is a continuous narrative and storyline. From Tobin Bell starring in the sequel, he raised his reputation as an actor and more people recognised him as a great in this horror film industry.  The success of this sequel reflects on Tobin Bell’s career and because it was such a global success, so was Tobin Bell, becoming recognised in this film industry and now probably one of the most well-known horror actors.

He is known for directing horror genre films which are successful and popular within the film industry' which include saw and creating Billy the puppet. Furthermore, he’s also directed Dead Silence, Death Sentence, Insidious, Insidious: Chapter 2, and The Conjuring. By Wan directing these successful films it shall make him well known within the film industry and his certain films shall create a fan base before the films are released which shall make his films successful within the film industry.

James Cameron is one of the most recognised and successful directors of all time. Directing the global hit 'Avatar' and many other films which grossed in a lot of profit including 'Sanctum', the emotional romantic film 'Titanic', 'The Terminator' and even the film 'Aliens'. 'Avatar' was the most grossing film of all time, after 9 years of planning from James Cameron, he eventually had the technology he needed to complete the film to the best of it's ability. Because James Cameron had this film planned for so long, he was able to market the film so much that it was already making profit and already successful before the film release, making websites and releasing images of characters and the setting of another world called 'Pandora'. This suspense of not knowing the full story of 'Avatar' intrigued the audience, making it sell even more copies and in the premiere, being the first ever 3D film shown was certainly something to watch.
