Project proposal title and date:
DEITY
Main area of activity:
Film.
Rationale:
In my last few projects, I’ve paired music with animation in a music video which will come in useful
in a movie trailer. Projects such as the video game have boosted my confidence in using
photoshop, so I’ll be putting that to use for a movie poster. I will be doing some combat
choreography because in GCSE Media my end of year project taught me how to shoot combat
well.
Project Concept:
My project will be an Action Thriller with dark themes and a lot of action in hopes of appealing to
an audience that likes the feeling of being uneasy. Tension will be a key aspect in my project
through large amounts of combat and intense copyright free soundtrack. I will be creating a movie
poster to advertise the product further. I will be telling a story through pace of shots and of scenes
as well as the colour scheme of each shot. Shots will be taken over a long period of time, so I’ll fill
in gaps in my schedule by developing the poster.
I will have to do research on action movies as well as some gothic/horror themes. I will create
mood boards to emphasise the use of certain themes in my piece so I can go back and decide if
certain things work or have the same feel as what I am planning. I will also need to plan shot
locations and when to record etcetera.
How will the project be evaluated and reviewed:
I will be looking over the time management aspects of the project and look into how the way I’d
spent my time effects the project as a whole. I’ll be self-assessing the quality of the work and how
I’d change things looking back and keeping these in mind for future projects.
