What have we chosen?- Mindmap

We have looked over all of the briefs and decided that we would like to do either

Brief 1- A promotion package for the release of an album, to include a music promo video together with two of the following three options:
  • A website homepage for the band
  • A cover for its release as part of a digipak
  • a magazine advertisement for the digipak
OR,

Brief 2- A promotion package for a new film, to include a teaser trailer, together with two of the following three options:
  • A magazine front cover for the film
  • a film magazine front cover, featuring the film
  • a poster for the film

We cannot decide which brief to do so have made a mindmap with different idea's to help us decide:

STARTING THE MAIN CW!

Passed exams and back for another year! I am now starting the main coursework for A2.

Editing

The editing of the preliminary task has been completed, and it was interesting for me and the rest of the group to learn what was good and what was bad when it comes to editing, and to understand what we have done wrong/right this time so that during the main segment of the coursework we can apply what we have learnt. Overall i think the editing went well and i now feel more confident when it comes to using Adobe Pro.

Filming

We have now completed the filming of our Preliminary task! I think that it went really well, and we remembered all of the important angles and rules, as well as sticking to our script and storyboard.

Script



Here is the script for my Preliminary Task.

We feel that the script is a good length and has good content, and the layout of the script is similar to 'The Ring', a film we looked at in class. Watching this film with the script in front of us really helped me to understand how filming works and how a film goes from the script to the finished product. Here is our script:
