1) Independent film (also called indie films): they don't tend to rely on the use of a Hollywood Studio and are typically financed independently. Unlike blockbusters, they don't have a large budget but can be used to represent society(I Daniel Blake, had a political message).
2)I Daniel Blake is about a man called Daniel who meets a single mother and her two children, he decides to help her get to a flat that is 300 miles away.
3) Ken Loach was the director for I Daniel Blake. This is important as he has filmed for over 50 years and also likes to right about society. He likes to tell stories representing the ordinary working class and there social issues they all face. Ken Loach never wanted an Hollywood success as it was never his intention or goal. He also represents unemployment, poverty and addiction in his movies to represent the working class.
4) I Daniel Blake was promoted very differently compared to other movies. It projected itself onto the house of parliament to send a message. There was a marketing campaign and a video was made from the public and some politicians to support the films message.
5)One unusual method used was the projection of I Daniel Blake onto the house of parliament which sent a message to politicians and the public as it hasn't been done before. They also started a hashtag stating #WeAreAllDanielBlake which got popular online.
6) The budget for the movie I Daniel Blake was £2 million and had made £11 million in total.
7) Independent films can compete with blockbuster films as they usually have a powerful message behind it that changes the audiences perception upon the world and society.
8) I believe I Daniel Blake was a success as it did what it was intended to do since it had a huge impact on a lot of peoples lives and it also made a lot of money from the box office receipts.
