Defining teaser trailer

Task 1 a for A-level media coursework.

Education

This document contains sketches and notes planning the camera setup, actors, props, and locations for shooting a teaser trailer. It outlines 5 different locations - Caddington streets, Eve's bedroom, a school classroom, an alleyway, and Caddington park. For each location, it notes that a camera on a tripod will be used and lists the main actor and any props. Crew roles of camera operator and director are also identified for one location.

Location Ideas

The document discusses potential filming locations for a horror media production. It proposes five locations: a park, an alleyway, the village of Caddington, a student's bedroom, and a school classroom. For each location, it evaluates the suitability, risks, accessibility, and necessary permissions. The preferred park is in Caddington due to lighting. The alleyway would be in Caddington for safety. Shots of daily life would take place in the quiet village of Caddington. A team member's friend agreed to the use of her bedroom. Their school granted permission to film in an empty classroom.

Risk assessment

This risk assessment summarizes the hazards and safety measures for filming scenes over four locations for an A2 horror teaser trailer between 3-7pm on November 5th and 9am-1pm on November 10th in Caddington Village. Key hazards addressed include the crew being robbed, tripping, disrupting residents or students, and falling. Safety measures include staying together, having phones to call police, wearing proper footwear, acting professionally to not disturb others, and choosing well-lit areas. The document was prepared by Danielle Duffy and certified by all crew members.

Media ancillary research task 1

Location recce sheet

The document provides location recce sheets for 4 potential filming locations for scenes in a horror film. Location 1 is an unnamed park in Caddington that would work well for scenes where the protagonist is alone in the park at night. Location 2 is streets in Caddington village that would work for daytime and nighttime scenes of the protagonist walking. Location 3 is an alleyway in Caddington that could provide eerie shots of the protagonist encountering an unknown presence. Location 4 is the protagonist's bedroom and outside of her house in Luton that would work for an anxious phone call scene and leaving the house. The document assesses the lighting, noise levels, hazards and suitability of each location.

Target audience research feedback

The document summarizes interviews with people about what elements of film posters influence their decisions to watch a movie. It finds that the main image should captivate viewers and reflect the film's themes. Posters should include the protagonist and hints of opposing forces. Dark colors like red and black are expected for horror posters. Facial expressions can portray emotions that suggest a character's role. Including background imagery, tags and social media links provides more context about the plot.

Film Poster Production

Danielle Duffy created the first draft of a film poster using Photoshop and InDesign. In Photoshop, she adjusted the levels and tones of the main image, erased the white background and added sinister text messages. She then exported the image into InDesign to add additional elements like the title, billing block and logo to create a layout that followed her red and white color scheme. While she was pleased with the overall result, she noted some weaknesses like difficulty optimizing some areas of the image in Photoshop.

Shot Log: School location

This shot log summarizes footage taken on October 11th for the production "Eve" directed by Abi, Danielle and Grace. It includes 29 shots taken of scenes with the protagonist Eve in a computer room. The shots include establishing shots of the exterior, mid shots of Eve at the computer, close ups of the computer screen and mouse, and shots of Eve reacting to an email. Most shots were of good quality however some were too bright, out of focus, or included unwanted background imagery. The best shots for inclusion in the final product were noted.

The document discusses obtaining permission to use audio sources for a student film project. It examines using both primary sources like Foley sounds created by the students and secondary sources found online. For secondary sources, the document explores websites like Incompetech, FreeSFX and YouTube but notes permission would need to be requested or composers credited. It concludes the students should use a mix of both primary and secondary audio, with Incompetech as their main secondary source due to its variety, while also creating some original Foley sounds. Proper permission and credit is needed for any secondary audio used.

Shot Log- House Location

The shot log documents footage shot on 31/10/16 for the production "Eve" directed by Abi, Danielle and Grace. It includes 27 shots filmed at Kira's home of Eve appearing distressed and hurriedly leaving her house and walking down the street.

Analysis of similar texts

The document analyzes two movie trailers - The Revenant (2015) and Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) - to understand their target audiences, themes, and technical elements. The target audience for both films is identified as 16+ due to their violent content and gritty themes of survival and betrayal. Fast-paced editing, tense music, and explosive action sequences are among the key technical codes used. The unconventional settings and contrasts between music and visuals aim to intrigue audiences and set the films apart. The analysis will help the student create their own thriller trailer that incorporates lessons from these professional examples.

Modelling and remote sensing of land surface

mehmet şahin

This document describes a study that used artificial neural networks and remote sensing to model and estimate land surface temperature in Turkey. Specifically, it used a generalized regression neural network with meteorological and geographic data from 10 stations as inputs to estimate monthly mean land surface temperature as the output. It also used the Becker and Li method to estimate land surface temperature values from NOAA satellite data. The results found low errors between the estimated and measured temperatures, showing these methods can accurately predict land surface temperature.

Representation of sexuality

This document discusses stereotypes of heterosexuality, homosexuality, and how media representation of LGBT individuals has changed over time. It notes that historically, homosexuality was viewed negatively and often pathologized in media and society. However, more recent legislation supporting same-sex marriage and changing social attitudes have led to more positive and nuanced portrayals of LGBT characters and relationships in television shows. While stereotypes still exist, mainstream media coverage has increasingly moved to "symbolically annihilate" homophobia rather than LGBT individuals themselves.

The impact of the internet on media audiences

The document discusses the impact of the internet on media audiences in 3 main areas: 1) The internet has led audiences to take a more active role in how they consume media through a wider variety of options. It has decreased the popularity of older technologies as new ones emerge. 2) Both adult and younger audiences are increasingly using internet technologies, showing its ability to appeal to all age groups. 3) The internet has affected younger audiences (16-24) the most who almost all use it, while older audiences (75+) are less engaged. It has increased accessibility but also created new issues around privacy, crime, and harmful/disturbing content online.

Defining Hollywood film

The document discusses the film industry in Hollywood and the major film studios that dominate it. The five largest studios, known as conglomerates, are Warner Bros., Paramount, 20th Century Fox, Universal, and Disney. As conglomerates, they own multiple businesses and have vertical and horizontal control over film production, distribution, and exhibition. This level of funding and control makes it difficult for smaller studios like British film companies to compete. Disney in particular is discussed as owning various media brands that help promote its films and generate large profits that can be reinvested in productions.

The Newspaper Industry

The document discusses the decline of print newspapers and the transition to digital news consumption. It notes that newspaper sales and subscriptions are decreasing as more people get news online for free. While some newspapers now offer their content online for free to expand their audience, this means losing revenue from print sales. Newspapers are trying different strategies, like The Guardian offering all content online for free, while The Times only offers previews online and requires a subscription to read full articles. The future of the print newspaper industry remains uncertain as audiences and advertising dollars continue to shift to digital.

Social Class

The document discusses social class structure in the UK, dividing classes into upper, middle, and working classes. It provides stereotypes associated with each class, such as manners, education, income, housing, and manner of dress. Examples are given of TV characters from each class, like the unkempt and angry Frank from Shameless representing the working class, and the formally dressed aristocratic men from Downton Abbey representing the upper class. The document also discusses how those in higher classes traditionally have more power and influence over media representations that shape public perceptions of different classes.

TV Drama Research

Coronation Street is a British soap opera that dramatizes the daily lives of residents in a working class town. It features complex storylines involving relationships, crimes, and mental health issues. The characters are diverse and represent different ages, backgrounds, and abilities. Though dramatic events keep viewers engaged, the show aims to realistically portray common issues faced by audiences.

Representation theories

The document summarizes Stuart Hall's theories on representation and stereotypes in media. It discusses four aspects of representation: re-presentation, being representative of types, purpose of media creation, and audience responses. It also examines how stereotypes legitimize inequality, how representations have become "hyperreal", and the concepts of dominant/subordinate types and ideological readings of texts.

All about me and films

The document discusses the author's film watching habits over the past year, including films watched alone and with family/friends, using cinema, laptop and streaming services to watch, learning about new releases through trailers and friends, and consuming films at home and in cinema. The author decides which films to watch by searching for genres, watching trailers, and considering ratings, reviews, storylines and featured stars.

Techniques I like

The document discusses techniques used in film trailers to create atmosphere and build tension. It analyzes the trailer for 10 Cloverfield Lane, praising its use of asynchronous sound and rising tension in the music to unsettle viewers. Examples from other thriller/horror trailers demonstrate how editing techniques like cuts, close-ups, and focus pulls direct attention to build suspense. Lighting, colors, and filters also set mood and provide clues about the plot and characters. The document considers how these techniques could be applied to create an effective trailer that makes audiences want to watch the full film.

Title Development for our A2 media production

This document discusses the use of titles in a teaser trailer for a media production titled "Eve". It explains how titles can be used to convey the film title, production logo, narrative details, credits, release date, and social media/website information. The document provides examples of titles from other films and presents initial experiments with titles for the "Eve" production in Adobe After Effects. It justifies design choices and considers how to effectively convey necessary information through the use of titles.

Location recce sheet

The document provides location recce sheets for several filming locations for a horror scene and film. The main locations considered are Caddington Park, Caddington Village streets, an alleyway in Caddington, and the protagonist's bedroom. Each location is assessed for its suitability based on lighting, noise levels, potential hazards, and overall appropriateness for the intended scenes. Caddington Park is selected as the primary location due to its spacious area, lighting from lamp posts, and suitability for filming scenes of the protagonist alone on a swing at night when she notices a mysterious figure.

Youth types

Michael Brake's theory divides youth into four types: respectable youth who conform to rules and avoid trouble; delinquent youth who engage in illegal activities; cultural rebels who are nonconformists interested in art and music; and politically militant youth involved in protests. Respectable youth are often portrayed as bullied for being idealistic, while delinquent youth are depicted as trouble-making and lower class in media like Kidulthood. Cultural rebels from the 1960s are shown as independent and enjoying recreational drugs and long hair. Politically militant youth protesting rising fees are unfairly portrayed in some media as uniformly violent despite peaceful intentions of many.

Representation of age

The document analyzes a video clip that portrays a power dynamic between teachers and students based on their ages. A middle-aged male teacher mocks and exerts authority over two teenage boys after they damaged a school camera. He condescendingly reports the incident to a younger female teacher. The analysis suggests the clip legitimizes inequality by showing teachers believe they can act disrespectfully toward students and assert their power over them and other teachers based on age differences.

Social class

The document analyzes the representation of a lower-class family in a television drama through the use of camerawork, mise-en-scene, editing, and sound. It discusses how shaky zooms and a messy home filled with beer cans reinforce stereotypes of instability and irresponsibility. However, the family's laughter and enduring love despite struggles presents a somewhat positive portrayal. Fast editing emphasizes the father's aggression, though continuity editing aims for realism. Swearing exhibits informality, though the father's education challenges full conformity to stereotypes.
