Post 15

In different groups (different to our coursework groups), we were given an existing film poster.
I was put with Jordan Rolf (below). We then had 2 hours to recreate this poster as close as possible to
the exact detail and then upload to our blogs. We only had the resources we had come to the lesson
with, so one group had a camera in their bag and we used our phones and computer but another group
forgot their laptop so had to print things out of hand-edit it together. Immediately, we knew we had to
 take a photo who looked as similar as possible to Jim Carrey and was wearing a similar suit, so we
went into a sixth form common room and asked a friend to pose like Carrey with a white background.
Then we looked for photos on the internet of penguins, edited them, and arranged them into the photo.
Thankfully, Jordan knows how to use photoshop very well and it wasn't difficult. After that, we closed
in on the writing and took a while to choose a similar font to edit on illustrator so that it was the same
as it is on the photo but within the 2 hours, we finished!

(POST 56) - Evaluation Question 4

Arguably, the most important collective group of items in the production of media is the technologies that surround the production stages. It is crucial to have all of the correct forms of technology to be able to construct, research, plan and evaluate throughout the process. I believe the knowledge I have within technology that I have built up over the past few years of my life has given me an advantage throughout the production stages of the coursework. The combination of skills across my knowledge of technology, camerawork and editing have helped me to produce a much better post edit product. Within both the construction of and researching into the product we are building up to produce there was a varied selection of technology that we used to better are research. Firstly, we believed deciding on are target audience would be the best way to start out. We did so by creating a simple questionnaire on word in which we asked a range of age groups the same questions t...

(POST 28 ) - Planning, Casting and Characters

For the music video final piece we are going to have two actors who will take part in the main video shoot. The video starts of with the woman finding the man asleep surrounded by bottles on the beach. Clearly the mans life is in a mess so the woman takes him into her home and they get close to each other. They eventually return to the same beach where they both met on a date. Therefore we believe having two people who are already in a relationship will work or two people who look like they could be in one. For the woman role we were thinking of two people either Reya Muller or Georgia Bacon. We chose the both of them as they suite the role and would be happy to feature in the music video. For the male role we have two candidates as well them being Indy Holmes or Aaron Walker. Short Character Profiles Female role - The female character in this music video will play a supportive and caring role towards the man. She will show a clear amount of care and worry towards t...

(POST 34) - Planning - Directional Style

Is there a particular directing style you want to use? Examples of directing styles: Montage vs long shots where shots are longer and keeps the scene in deep focus which allows the audience to choose their points of emphasis. Also the mise-en-scene and the arrangement of the set is important in this directional style. Hollywood style where the aim is to make the audience forget the medium of the film therefore they use shots and cuts in order to make the audience seem like there is no technique. Finally they like to keep the video having a natural look to it. From this bit of research I think using a directional style can be helpful but at the same time as a pair I think we would use different parts of different styles so that we are using techniques that allow us to create exactly what we want therefore there is no particular style that we would want to use but we would consider using sections to create our own style to it. Are there particular directors you are inspired ...
