Scenario
As a media production specialist approaching the end of your two year programme of study, the time has come to
demonstrate your ability in managing an independently devised production through the stages of pre -production, production
and post-production.
You must devise initial ideas and select one that you will further develop using a broad combination of skills that you have
acquired over the past two years of studying your BTEC extended diploma.
The project must relate to one or more disciplines across video, audio, motion graphics, photography and graphic design.
You must demonstrate that you are able to plan in advance all stages of production and adhere to a production schedule that
you yourself have devised.
You must also, if encountered, evidence how you adapt to changes in your production schedule and overcome production
difficulties.
Good luck!
