In
paranormal activity started Attempting to focus on believability rather than
action and gore, Peli chose to shoot the picture with a home video camera. In
deciding on a more raw and stationary format (the camera was almost always
sitting on a tripod or something else) and eliminating the need for a camera
crew, a "higher degree of plausibility" was created for the audience
as they were "more invested in the story and the characters". Peli
says that the dialogue was "natural" because there was no real
script. Instead, the actors were given outlines of the story and situations to
improvise, a technique known as "retroscripting" used in the making
of The Blair Witch Project. In casting the movie, Peli auditioned "a few
hundred people" before finally meeting Katie Featherston and Micah Sloat.
He originally auditioned them individually and later called them back to audition
together. Peli was impressed with the chemistry between the actors, saying,
"If you saw the [audition] footage, you would've thought they had known
each other for years.
The film was
shot out of sequence due to Peli's self-imposed seven day shooting schedule,
though Peli would have preferred the story unfold for the actors as he had
envisioned it. Sloat, who controlled the camera for a good deal of the film,
was a former cameraman at his university's TV station. "It was a very
intense week", Peli recalled, stating that the film would be shot day and
night, edited at the same time, and would have the visual effects applied to it
as the acting footage was being finalized.
DISTRIBUTION:
The film
reaches the audience in many ways some choose to watch at home online through
fee paying others decide to opt for the illegal option of a free download of a
pirate copy, Also the obvious and most popular way is through certainly cinema.

Activity was released on DVD and Blu-ray on December 29, 2009. And film
marketing is actually very simple as posters and visual advertisments make it
possible for the audience to access thesevisuals
EXHIBITION:
Today we
interact and engage with media in all sorts of ways but with a film it is
important that the film has great levels of acting as well as excellent camera
performances. Simple shots like over shoulder shots lead the audience to connote
many things and using the in trailers can prove to be highly efficient. n
