1912, on a ship called Titanic when young Rose boards the
departing ship with the upper-class passengers and her
mother, Ruth DeWitt Bukater, and her fiancé, Caledon
Hockley. Meanwhile, a drifter and artist named Jack Dawson
and his best friend Fabrizio De Rossi win third-class tickets to
the ship in a game. And she explains the whole story from
departure until the death of Titanic on its first and last
voyage April 15th, 1912 at 2:20 in the morning. Plot

*The Media Business: Advertising; The success of 'Titanic' has
marketer scrambling to create product tie-ins - THE NEW
YORK TIMES
*Titanic set sail due to its marketing and distribution to a
target audience through: its pre sold-stars and subject
matter, imagery (images and songs that the audience
associated with the film), and merchandising tie-ins
*Titanic was marketed to its audience through its imagery,
narrative, stars, merchandising, soundtrack, and so much
more. Everybody knew the story of Titanic, the White Star’s
new liner that sank on April 14, 1912, taking down over
1,500 people with it. The film offered something for
everyone; it targeted a teenage audience that fell in love
with the main character and sympathized with the story. It
also targeted an older audience who reminisced on the
“good old days.” The creative marketing seen in Titanic is
what set the movie sailing,

21.
*The film’s creative marketing in terms of pre-release
publicity alone is astonishing. It marketed through its
imagery, which will be described later on, narrative, stars,
merchandising, and soundtrack to reach out to an audience
that would buy. Titanic was a Paramount-Cox co-
production; they each invested $60 million in the
production of the film. The marketing and distribution of
Titanic were done efficiently which is one of the main
causes of the film’s massive success.
*The look is there, James Cameron is very reputable for his
visual imagery and the film featured a combination of live
action and CGI to simulate the disaster on an epic scale for
the audience, creating extras and duplicating stunt people
to increase the drama. Additionally 450 special effect shots
went into the making of this film, which cost over $200
million to make; the production design and
cinematography are pristine. The soundtrack sales alone
brought in $400 million, a mere portion of its produced
mass ancillary market.

22.
* The after shock of merchandising tie-ins following the release of
the film brought in an immense amount of income. The film was
not anticipated to be as successful as it was in the slightest, which
left marketers scrambling after the fact to come up with ancillary
products and advertising to profit. The plethora of merchandising
tie-ins range from: additional books and albums to TV programs,
games, merchandise, and advertisements. “The “cinematic” also
reaches out to a range of adjacent products, produced by the
corporate gains who now own the old studio brand – books, toys,
soundtrack CDs, video games, fashion.
* Titanic was released in 1997 and to this day there are cinema
ticket sales being sold in 3D, DVD and video rentals, and the sale
of licensed and, at times unlicensed merchandise. “The films
unprecedented theatrical success quickly overflowed into lucrative
ancillary markets. From the soundtrack album to couture fashions,
from recycled film props in the upscale J. Peterman catalog to
jewelry and lifeboat replicas, sales of Titanic-related merchandise
matched the intense discursive interest in all things “Titanic”
evidenced in Internet chat rooms, television documentaries, and
publishing trends.

*At $200 million, the movie cost more than the
Titanic itself. The cost to construct the ship in
1910-1912 was £1.5 million, equivalent to $7.5
million at the time and about $120 to $150 million
in 1997 dollars.
*Approximately 120 tons of water (triple what had
been initially planned) were released for Eric
Braeden's final scene. Braeden said that he has
never been more terrified in his life than when he
was preparing for it, as there was obviously no
possible physical rehearsal.

*Was #1 at the U.S. box office for a record fifteen
