Anisa Yahya received feedback on their pre-production tasks for an AS film production. The teacher provided comments on 14 pre-production elements, noting that some elements like the script, target audience research, and production schedule were well done. However, locations needed photos uploaded, and film opening analysis could be more detailed. Overall the work was at a proficient level but missing some elements, earning a level 2 grade. Anisa addressed the areas that needed improvement, like adding more detailed storyboards and uploading location floor plans and equipment images. The final mark was increased to a high level 3 grade of 15 out of 20.

Teachers comments
Please label all of you pre-production work as ‘pre-production’ so that it can be
found easily by the examiner. Labels still need sorting, a lot of your pre-
production work is in with ‘production’ – now complete
1. You have chosen 4 appropriate films to analyse, (analysis in with genre
research prezi) your analysis is quite brief for each film and could have
more detail. What will you take from each film as inspiration for yours?
Nothing further added.
2. Excellent research on your genre (in with the film openings), genre
conventions identified well. You could embed the prezi into your blog and
give it a clearer title. This now completed.
3. Well thought through target audience research, good use of avatars.
4. A well written script that follows conventions well.
5. Some evidence of drafting from initial ideas to script. You could have
done a post stating that you changed your idea last minute and why you
did that – this would help to explain your time management. Blog post
now added explaining ideas change. Excellent addition of permissions to
use music and risk assessments.
6. Good use of program to create animated storyboards, you need to add
more detail to each scene such as shot types/camera movements. Very
detailed hand drawn storyboards showing shot choices now added.
7. No work uploaded A very detailed shot list now uploaded, well done
8. No work uploaded Excellent floor plans now added of key location, great
use of a key.
9. Locations identified, but photos need to be uploaded. No images
uploaded.
10.Costume choices identified well, you could add images to improve this.

2. Images and further information now added, good analysis of colours to
enhance this work. Additional post on final costume choice is well
documented.
11.Some props mentioned in production schedule, more detail needed.
Images now added.
12.Excellent choice of actors and reasons for choices.
13.Some equipment mentioned in production schedule, more detail needed.
Images now added
14.A clear production schedule, well done.
Most of this work is to a proficient standard, however whilst you have some
elements missing this can only be a level 2. Please use the notes in red to
improve your work.
Excellent addition of character analysis giving insights into your main
characters, font choice for your titles, and actor changes. Much of this work is
excellent Anisa, however some (locations and film opening analysis research is
quite brief). Therefore high level 3.
