The document outlines the filmmaker's plans for managing time and planning locations, characters, and shooting scripts for their short film trailer. They have created schedules estimating scene lengths and filming days. Scenes will be filmed on different days depending on location efficiency. Characters will be portrayed realistically rather than through stereotypes to better connect with the audience. The main character Lucy will wear plain, child-like clothing to appear ghostly and creepy as the mysterious, immortal girl in the story.

Outline of brief and preliminary ideas
This document outlines Marcus Thomas's production portfolio which will consist of a short film, two ancillary products, a blog, and an evaluation. The short film will be a modern version of Little Red Riding Hood that is approximately five minutes long. A poster and film review will support the film. Marcus and his partner Tesfah Watkins-Scott will take on various roles such as director, cameraman, and editor. They plan to modernize the classic tale with West Indian traditions and subvert conventions. A blog will document their progress. An evaluation will reflect on the work and discuss what went well and changes that could improve future projects.
Q3. Areas of development
1) The camera angles were not consistent between shots due to only having two people filming. The location used also did not match what was in the storyboard.
2) Making the storyboard and location plans more flexible would have helped deal with limitations on filming time and locations.
3) Background noise in one clip distracted from the film and should have been reduced.
Final 5 edits
The photographer intended to create scary images for a magazine through unsettling portrayals of models. One image featured a model with scary teeth and eyes to look "demonic" and "undead". Another aimed for a more subtle scare through a blue tint and dark lighting to imply a feeling of being watched. A third was meant as an advertisement poster for a drink but did not achieve the intended scary and dark theme, appearing too bright instead. The final photo used color changes to contrast a model's face with the background and show the difference between human and zombie, fulfilling the photographer's goal of an abstract catchy advertisement image.
Final 5 edits
The photographer intended to create scary and undead images to advertise a zombie energy drink. For one photo, they made the model look demonic with scary teeth and eyes to achieve an undead look. They were pleased with the result but wanted to add more details. For another photo, they aimed for a more subtle scare using a blue tint and dark lighting to create an eerie feeling of being watched, which they felt they accomplished. They would have liked to experiment with more effects. They felt a third photo was too bright and not scary enough to fit the theme.
Planning our opening sequence
The document outlines the planning for an opening film sequence shot at Reigate College. It was filmed in the college's "castle" building due to its ability to portray different scenes. Costumes aimed to present normal characters, with the villain wearing dark colors. Limited props included a knife and shoes. Emphasis was placed on camerawork over prop relationships. The production process involved research, casting, scripting, filming, editing, and sharing the final video online.
Evaluation activity 1
The document discusses various elements of a student horror film production and how they used or challenged conventions of the genre. It describes using a dripping blood font to create a scary title, filming at an abandoned farmhouse location after their original location closed, shooting entirely in first-person perspective to emulate Blair Witch and make the viewer feel like they were in the film, employing jump cuts during editing to create jump scares, using typical horror film sounds to build tension, and having actors wear dark clothing at night that blended in. In conclusion, the first-person filming approach was meant to make the film a unique experience for viewers.
Evaluation of my animation
1) The author and their group created an animation about King Henry VIII's marriages using plasticine models.
2) They each worked on individual tasks like creating sets and models, but came across issues in editing like unclear sounds and narration.
3) While the animation told the story of the six wives in order and was educational, the quality of some images was poor due to lighting and angle differences in photographing.
Codes and conventions of short films
In a short film between 5-15 minutes, there is little time to develop characters in depth or include many characters. As such, short films typically feature 2-3 characters that have clear intentions established quickly. They also usually include a plot twist to make the short storyline more intriguing. Due to low budgets, short films are often filmed within 1-2 everyday locations to keep costs low and the story straightforward.

Storytelling reflection
The student wrote a story called "Blaze Saves the World" set in ancient Egypt about a boy who becomes friends with Egyptian gods. In planning the story, the student found it difficult to come up with ideas when other group members disagreed. When drafting and revising, the student struggled to finish within the short time frame but is proud most scenes made it into the final movie. Through workshops, the student learned how to write engaging openings and use dialogue better. In producing the digital story, the role was scriptwriter and skills in iMovie were improved like panning and zooming. Group work was sometimes enjoyable but also frustrating, though the student learned to trust others' work. The overall unit helped the student learn to improve stories

The document summarizes the improvements made from a preliminary media task to the production of a film called Malus. Key areas of improvement included conducting in-depth research to define the audience and focus of the film, incorporating more advanced cinematography techniques like low angles and pans, and storyboarding shots to ensure crucial elements were captured efficiently during filming. The progression allowed the filmmaker to strengthen preproduction skills like planning and research which are important for creating a coherent media product.
Animation Evaluation
The students created an animated short film showing children's dreams. They struggled with planning and filming techniques but ultimately clamped the camera upside down to capture the animation. They added the song "Wish Upon A Star" to set a dreamlike atmosphere. Though some felt it lacked color, the animation received positive feedback overall. The two students worked well together with divided responsibilities and efforts to complete the project on time.
Preliminary Task Evaluation - Sauzanne Micael
The group decided on a narrative about a mother and daughter arguing about the daughter's careless attitude and habit of coming home late. They split roles for filming, with two actors, a director, and microphone operator. Filming in a restrictive space required careful use of the dolly and microphone boom pole. While the group developed the script in detail, they struggled to stick to the planned camera sequence and had to rearrange shots to best portray the scene.
Re shooting our opening title sequence
The document discusses re-filming scenes for an opening title sequence. They filmed with the protagonist acting instead of just me. They also aimed to make it funnier per feedback. For the new filming, they got Daisy's brother to play the spy. One new scene had the spy changing clothes behind a car to suit up as a spy. Overall, the new filming was an improvement with better acting, scenes, locations, and props, as they had more time and were able to film things repeatedly until perfect.
6.production reflection
Cameron Bird produced a promotional poster and merchandise for an adventure story. They created costumes for three characters - a rogue swordsman, gnome, and barbarian - sourcing materials from charity shops to avoid stereotypes. Photos and a video were taken of the costumes using a friend's camera to create a trailer promoting the story. Different designs were tested on merchandise, and both a simple black and white logo and more elaborate design may be used depending on the product.
Planning and research script
Once the narrative was decided, the group formalized it into a script by researching industry standards like BBC's "Life on Mars". Constructing the script helped develop the storyline and highlight continuity issues, bringing the narrative to life. It also allowed them to organize shooting schedules for realistic scene filming times. Their script follows conventions with bold speaker identification and clear location instructions.
Research (week 1)
The document discusses planning for adapting the fairy tale "Little Red Riding Hood" into a thriller genre film trailer. It outlines deciding to use the thriller genre and lists elements to explore like representations, props, mise-en-scene, and camera angles. Key changes to the narrative include using a non-linear structure and replacing the wolf with a witch. The roles of producer and director are discussed in overseeing the project from conceptualization through completion.
PlanningTheShoot
This document outlines the planning needs for a film shoot, including requirements for hair and makeup, costumes, props, and locations. Hair and makeup for the clown character will be simple, consisting only of a clown mask. The main female character, Ava, will have subtle everyday makeup and straight hair. Noah will have gelled hair but no makeup. Props will include a clown mask. Shooting locations will be in a park with bushes, empty fields, playground equipment, and a surrounding fence.
Evaluation activity one
The document provides an evaluation of the opening sequence of a short film called "Steeze" that uses conventions of the urban drama genre. It summarizes the key elements of the opening including the title, locations, costumes, camera work, and lack of special effects. While most elements effectively set the scene for an urban drama, the evaluator notes some elements like locations and title effects could have been more challenging or captivating within the constraints of the project.
Research and planning (media week 1)
The group has chosen to adapt the fairy tale "Little Red Riding Hood" as a thriller genre film. They will modernize aspects like using a red dress instead of a cape but keep main characters the same. The producer will oversee the project from concept to completion, ensuring they have proper equipment and follow storyboards. They intend to use a nonlinear narrative and voiceover narration to heighten suspense. Lighting, costumes, camera shots and locations were selected intentionally to create mood and focus audience attention in ways aligned with the thriller genre.
The Breakfast Club: Filming
We filmed our version of the opening sequence of "The Breakfast Club" with limited resources compared to the original film. We used our classroom and toy cars to stand in for real locations and vehicles. We also had to shoot our footage quickly during a weekday to make the school premises appear empty like a Saturday. With fewer actors, some of us played multiple characters. We utilized improvised props and equipment to recreate the scene on a low budget.
Film pros and cons
The document considers three film ideas - The Undercover Teacher, A Dare At Midnight, and Poltergeist Activity. For each idea, pros and cons are listed. The Undercover Teacher is chosen as the best option. It has more pros than cons, including an interesting story, variety of characters, and nearby filming locations. While it will require good acting and possibly more actors for some scenes, these cons can be addressed. Overall, The Undercover Teacher is selected as the easiest idea to make into a trailer.

Question 7
The document summarizes what the group learned from producing their preliminary film task to the full film product. In the preliminary, they learned about different camera shots and angles through pre-production. During production of the preliminary, they struggled with camera skills and following the storyboard. In post-production of the preliminary, their editing was basic as they were new to the software. For the full film, they applied what they learned to plan better with a storyboard, focus on camera shots and angles, and create more sophisticated editing and titles. They felt their teamwork and skills improved from mistakes made on the preliminary.
Job roles - The Stairway from Hell
For their short film, the roles of director, camera operator, and set designer were divided among Lauren, Stevie, and Niamh based on their qualifications and experience. Lauren served as the director and camera operator because of her responsibility and creative vision for the film as well as her experience with the camera. Stevie also directed, designed the location and set using her apartment, and catered to keep the talent fed, while also using items from her apartment as props. Niamh also directed by providing input to the group's ideas and operated the camera due to her experience with it.

4. production experiments (1)
1) The student experimented with magazine layout elements like the contents page and back cover by creating different designs featuring films like Fast and Furious 9, Spider-Man 3, and Godzilla vs Kong.
2) For the back cover experiment, colorful images and fonts in purple, blue, and green were used to make the design stand out against the nighttime city background image.
3) Through experimenting, the student learned that recurring white strokes on text helps it contrast and stand out, and that videos can be added to Photoshop layers for inclusion in the magazine.
The Music!
The document discusses the music choices for a coursework project. It explores finding eerie music for the opening, an upbeat song from "The Final Destination" for the main part after research. Permission was granted from Varese Sarabande Records to use part of the song after communicating with the vice president. The music was then edited to meet expectations, incorporating additional sounds and music from a previous project.
Magazine Evaluation
The document summarizes the results of a magazine cover evaluation conducted by distributing questionnaires to classmates and others. Key findings from the questionnaires include:
- Most respondents were female, matching the intended target audience
- Over 75% thought the colors worked well
- About a third didn't think the cover seemed authentic enough
- Suggested changes included making the bar code and some text smaller and rearranging the "extra" section
Primary Research
- The document summarizes primary research conducted through an online and paper questionnaire distributed to 16-21 year olds about a horror/thriller film synopsis and concept.
- The results showed that most respondents were aged 16-17 and enjoyed horror films, found the synopsis interesting, and wanted to see a full film without excessive gore.
- Respondents provided feedback on improvements like adding more mystery, stronger characters, and history for a letter mentioned in the synopsis.

Risk assessment was easier. In week 4, they began filming and editing but found it time consuming. They need to improve time management and editing skills. In week 5, they continued editing but struggled with specific tools and recording clear audio.
6. evaluation sf 2017
The document provides an evaluation of a production process. It discusses strengths and weaknesses in different areas such as analysis, planning, time management, editing, and aesthetics. Feedback from peers praised the overall concept but noted issues with choppy editing, lack of sound design, and inconsistent cuts. The document reflects on this feedback and acknowledges areas for improvement such as sound, storytelling techniques, and smoother editing. If redoing the project, the creator would focus more on sound design, establishing shots, and ensuring footage supports the planned editing.
6. evaluation - film
The student received feedback on a film project from peers. Key points from the feedback included:
1. The cinematography and use of different shots was a strength. Shots were well executed.
2. The music worked well and added suspense.
3. The plot was difficult to follow at times due to some long shots.
The student agreed the shots and actress' performance were strengths. They also agreed the plot could be harder to follow but with more time would have added more context. For future projects, the student would shorten gaps between scenes to improve pacing and clarity.
3. Proposal sf 2017
This proposal outlines a short film project titled "Tempus" aimed at audiences aged 16-25 of both genders. It will tell the story of one or more characters' lives to convey the concept of time in an artistic style. Research will include studying films with similar concepts like "Boyhood". Sound design will be important to create emotion. The filmmaker needs to improve audio capture and camera positioning. Evaluation will include weekly reflections and a final self-analysis to improve skills. A 5-week schedule is outlined with tasks like audience research, pre-production planning, filming, editing, and screening.
Question 1
The document discusses the filmmaking process for a short abstract film. It describes how the filmmaker researched different film styles and genres to understand conventions. For an abstract film, conventions are more relaxed as they challenge traditional narratives. Specific clips from the film are then analyzed, discussing choices around costumes, locations, lighting and editing to portray emotions through dance, smoke, and nature scenes. The filmmaker aimed to experiment with different elements while still engaging the target teenage/young adult audience. Overall, the filmmaker believes their abstract short film follows some conventions of the genre by using experimental techniques but is unique in its own style and artistry.

Creative critical reflection
The document discusses the student's movie opening project for a mystery genre film called "Karma". The student both used conventions of the mystery genre, such as including a murder, clues for detectives to solve, and costumes showing social norms, while also challenging conventions by using high key lighting rather than low key lighting normally seen in mysteries. The project helped the student improve their production skills like different camera shots and editing skills. The student used a Nikon D3100 camera, YouTube for research, and Windows Live Movie Maker for editing.
Media coursework evaluation A2

They analyzed trailers like Valentine's Day to understand conventions like being snappy, not revealing too much of the plot, and keeping the audience interested. The creator challenged some conventions by giving the female character a higher status than typical. They used techniques like camera shots, music, and poster design elements to engage audiences in a way inspired by analyzing professional works.

Evaluation 1
This document discusses how the media product challenges and adheres to conventions of real media. It summarizes:
- The storyline challenges conventions by making most of the world gay while the main character is straight, flipping a social norm.
- Camerawork and editing uses typical shots for a drama opening but also includes a mirror shot and point-of-view waking up shot to make it more interesting.
- Settings, costumes, and props adhere to conventions to avoid confusion and maintain continuity for viewers. This includes having the morning routine take place at home and dressing the school-aged main character in uniform.
- Some shots are inspired by similar scenes in the film American Psycho, but some conventions from that
4. problem solving
This document discusses several key aspects of the film production process, including costs, actors/cast, lighting, and focus. To estimate costs, the author created a spreadsheet listing estimated and actual expenses for various production elements, as well as estimated and actual income sources. They then booked professional actors for the lead and supporting roles. The author experimented with different lighting techniques to get experience and find looks that further the story. Finally, they discussed the benefits of manual focus but also situations where auto-focus may be necessary, such as when the camera is mounted on a rig. The overall goal is to produce a professional-looking film on a limited budget by planning costs, hiring experienced actors, learning lighting skills, and considering focus options.
4. problem solving (UPDATED)
This document discusses several key aspects of the film production process, including costs, actors/cast, lighting, and focus. To estimate costs, the author created a spreadsheet listing estimated and actual expenses for various production elements, as well as estimated and actual income sources. They then booked professional actors for the lead and supporting roles. The author experimented with different lighting techniques to prepare, trying setups like three-point lighting, high key, and low key lighting. Proper lighting will be important to help move the story and age the characters visually without props or makeup. Finally, focus is addressed, with manual focus preferred but auto-focus may be necessary for moving camera shots without a dedicated focus puller.
Creative critical reflection

Pre production evaluation
The document summarizes the initial planning and pre-production process for a short film project. It discusses developing initial ideas and writing a proposal, script, storyboards and budget. It also covers project management tasks like creating personnel, resource, and risk management lists. Some challenges encountered included an actor's scheduling conflict, having to cut a character, and needing to find a new filming location due to health hazards in the original space. Overall the planning process helped visualize the film and prepare logistically, though contingencies could have prevented some issues.
As media evaluation powerpoint
The document summarizes a student's media evaluation of their final piece for a class project on creating an action/thriller film with no budget. The student aimed to create a typical enjoyable action flick with quick pace and tension through using music, sound effects, and camera techniques like shaky shots. Though low budget, the student felt the film was conventionally similar to the genre through techniques like shot reverse shot dialogue scenes but also differed in uses of zooms and shaky shots. The intended broad audience was ages 15-50 but perhaps most popular with teens who could relate to the school setting. Through the project, the student learned skills in story writing, filming, editing and technologies used in the film industry.
