During research, Greg used YouTube to view existing trailers, Pearl & Dean to see targeted trailers, IMDb to view audience ratings, Da Font for title design, and Freesound for royalty-free music. Planning was aided by Prezi for genre representation and Mahara for collaborative blogging. Production utilized Final Cut Pro for video editing, Photoshop for image editing, and Illustrator for design elements. Evaluations employed PowToon, Emaze, Prezi, and PowerPoint for unique multimedia presentations. While the technologies provided control and professional appearance, learning curves did waste some time initially.
The document summarizes how the author used various media technologies throughout their research and planning process for creating a documentary. They used the Solihull Sixth Form Media website to research documentaries and get inspiration. They used Microsoft Word and Blogger to document their research and planning. They also used tools like cameras, scanners, printers, and editing software like Adobe Premiere and Photoshop to plan, create, and refine their documentary and other products.
The student used various new media technologies throughout the research, planning, and production stages of their project. During research and planning, they used Prezi, PowerPoint, Word, Scribd, SlideShare, Yolasite, Glogster, and Poll Everywhere to organize and present their findings. In production, they filmed footage using a Nikon video camera and tripod, then used Premiere Pro to edit a trailer. They also took photos with the camera for a poster and magazine cover, using a green screen, lighting equipment, and Photoshop to design the final materials.
Media technologies were crucial throughout each stage of the project. During research, the internet provided inspiration from existing products. A graphic tablet was used to design the storyboard, though most was hand-drawn. A video camera was vital for filming the trailer, and required learning camera functions and settings. Editing software Final Cut Pro was used to piece footage together, adding effects and transitions. Photoshop allowed digitally manipulating images for ancillary tasks. Various technologies like Prezi, Slideshare, and WordPress were employed to present and organize the evaluation work.

Video and audio were recorded using cameras and microphones, and footage was edited in Final Cut Express. A magazine article was designed in InDesign. Projects were evaluated through blog posts, slideshows, and videos uploaded to online platforms like YouTube and Slideshare.
The film industry conducts test screenings of films for invited audiences to determine their target demographic and refine their marketing strategies. Feedback from these test audiences allows filmmakers to identify if any changes need to be made to better appeal to their target group. Considerable money and resources are spent on market research like screenings and surveys to ensure the film's message is effectively reaching its intended audience.
The filmmaker conducted primary and secondary research to determine their target audience for a psychological thriller film. Through a survey, they found their target audience was 16-36 year olds who enjoyed the thriller genre. They also researched successful psychological thrillers to learn about their audiences. The filmmaker tested marketing materials like a teaser trailer, poster, and magazine cover with classmates, who provided feedback that helped improve the materials and confirmed the appeal to the target demographic.
The document discusses ideas for magazine covers to promote a psychological thriller film. It considers having a prominent male figure standing over female characters. It finds inspiration from a cover showing a close-up of the protagonist with the antagonist lurking in the background as a shadow, to maintain mystery. Low-key lighting and dramatic shadows are suggested to create an atmospheric and intense feel. A proposed cover sketch shows the distressed female protagonist clutching her bag in low-key lighting, with the shadowed silhouette of the male antagonist casting over half her face, representing his power over her.
This document outlines the steps taken to create various media elements for a psychological thriller project in Photoshop, Illustrator, Final Cut Pro, and GarageBand. It describes creating a magazine cover in Photoshop by adding layers and adjusting images. It also details making a film poster by overlapping images in Photoshop and adding text in Illustrator. Additionally, it discusses editing footage and adding sound effects in Final Cut Pro to produce a teaser trailer. Finally, it mentions experimenting with company ident designs and collecting free sound effects online.
The document summarizes the creative process for designing a movie poster. The designer began by erasing a lanyard from an image and overlaying a stopwatch to make it look like the subject is holding one. They then added a red scratched paint mark to imply violence and danger, in line with a psychological thriller genre. The image was converted to black and white to make it more intense. Fonts and credits were also added to complete the poster design.
The document provides details on the opening sequence shots for "The Bling Ring". It lists the shots included in the opening credits of the film, such as establishing shots that set the scene in Los Angeles.
The document summarizes three editing projects in Final Cut Pro:
1) Clicking favorites, placing footage in timeline, and ordering shots to manipulate appearance for rough edit.
2) Transforming an image to black and white, overlapping an image of a clock to link to a time theme, and cropping/adding shadow with shading tools for a magazine cover.
3) Overlapping a mid shot over a close up to reveal an identity and entice audiences for a film poster.
Film company idents are short clips displayed in theatrical and teaser trailers that identify the production companies involved in making the film. They can vary in tone depending on the film's genre, such as darker idents for horror films. Idents typically last 2-15 seconds and appear at the start of trailers. They are often animated to stand out and link to the film's genre. Film idents are used to inform audiences of the production companies responsible for the film and ensure their logos are memorable through brief but distinctive animation at the start of trailers.
The document describes the process taken to design a magazine cover for a psychological thriller. Key steps included:
- Choosing an image of the main character and cropping it to size. Manipulating it to be black and white and adjusting brightness and contrast to make it more dramatic.
- Adding the text "Empire" in red font across the top to match the genre. Choosing a font similar to the original magazine.
- Overlaying a second image of broken glass on the character's face to add texture and imply cracks in personality.
- Adding cover lines of different sizes and styles to draw attention and intrigue audiences about the content.
The document provides information on several film magazines, including Empire, Filmink, Total Film, and Entertainment. It outlines their target audiences and content focuses. Empire targets middle class males aged 16-30 and promotes mainstream films through reviews and interviews. Filmink focuses on Australian films and the local industry. Total Film features sci-fi and thriller films through interviews and behind-the-scenes pieces. Entertainment covers the film, TV, music, and theater industries through archival trade publications and appeals widely. The document also examines Empire's magazine covers and conventions like bold poses, low lighting, and relating films to its brand. This informs the planning of a psychological thriller magazine cover.
This document discusses different types of sound that can be used in films, specifically teaser trailers, to convey meaning and elicit emotions from audiences. It covers non-diegetic sound, diegetic sound, ambient sound, pace, voiceovers/dialogue, foley sounds, and sound effects. Examples are provided of how these sounds have been effectively used in teaser trailers for films like "Black Swan", "Gone Girl", and "Inception". The document also outlines specific sounds the author plans to use in their own teaser trailer, including non-diegetic, diegetic, and changes in pace as the timer runs out. Resources for royalty-free music are shared at the end.
This document summarizes the filming risk assessment for a student film group shooting their film titled "Times Up!". It lists the filming locations as inside and outside the Castle field house. It identifies trip hazards from electrical wires as a potential risk and notes that all group members could be harmed. The risk level is classified as slight. Control measures to minimize the risk include warning people near the wires.
The document describes steps taken to edit an image by replacing part of it with a stopwatch image from the internet, adjusting properties like size, position, brightness, and contrast of the added image. Additional edits included using tools to cover up the original lanyard image, transforming the composite image to black and white, and adding text over the image by selecting fonts and positioning text boxes. The end result was a modified film poster image.
This document provides a shooting schedule and shot list for a film production titled "Times Up!". It details 44 shots to be filmed over two days, both outdoors on the castle green and indoors in the castle field. The shots include various angles and close-ups showing the interactions between Jane and John as Jane tries to escape within the time limit set by John's timer.
The call sheet provides details for the production of "TIMES UP!" including a call time of 9am and finish time of 4pm on October 31st at Reigate College Castle Field. It lists the crew of 4 people and their roles, with Ross and Shania as the main actors for Jane and John and backups if needed. Costume details are provided for Jane and John, and equipment like a camera, tripod and reflector are noted. Props needed include a timer, Jane's belongings, notepad and pen, keys, and a picture of Jane, with various crew members responsible for bringing items.
The document discusses ideas for film posters for a psychological thriller film. It describes two potential poster ideas. The first idea sketches a close-up of a timer being held by an unknown character, showing the film title "Times Up!" within the timer to relate it to the theme of time running out in the film. The second idea sketches an hourglass timer filled with fake blood instead of sand, again showing the film title "Time Up!" written in the fake blood, suggesting violence and danger involved with the timer running out. Both ideas aim to incorporate the theme of time and suspense central to the film in an visually striking way typical of psychological thriller posters.
The document describes potential filming locations and shots within a house that could be used for a teaser trailer about a woman named Jane who finds herself trapped inside. It outlines several rooms in the house where scenes of Jane searching for an escape or being watched by the character John could take place, including the front door, basement door, bedroom, wardrobe, filing cabinet, and windows. The purpose would be to build a sense of entrapment, mystery, and inability to escape from the confined space of the house.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

2. I decided to use both the college computers and my home laptop when
researching our production and relevant images and videos of real life examples of
psychological thriller teaser trailers, film posters and magazine covers. The computer
and laptop allowed me to use Google to research and collect information that would help
me to develop my research.
The use of a computer/laptop and phone has also allowed me to use certain applications
such as Word, PowerPoint and through the use of Google, YouTube and the
internet I could access software/sites such as Prezi and Emaze which enabled me to
develop a more visual form presentation when communicating my ideas and research
through the use of images and videos. The use of Laptops and computers at college
also allowed me to access software such as Photoshop, Final Cut pro and Adobe
Illustrator which was useful when creating the final three productions (in post-production)
but also when creating rough cuts and practise posters and magazine covers
independently before creating the final group ones. Along with these applications, whilst
in the post-production stages of the project we also used applications such as
GarageBand, OneDrive and Free Sound which allowed us to transfer and discover a
variety of conventional sound to use in our teaser trailer.
3. I also used my iPhone at times to use the Google
application which again allowed me to progress
within the development of my research into
psychological thrillers, film posters, magazine covers
and teaser trailer conventions.
Both the use of a phone and a computer/laptop
allowed me to resolve any questions or problems I
had as I could search on Google if I had any
unanswered questions or needed to compare teaser
trailers when researching for example. This is one of
the most rewarding features of having access to
these devices as they enabled me to explore a range
of topics concerning the research of psychological
thriller teaser trailers, film posters and magazine
covers. This therefore enabled my overall journal to
develop to a more advanced level which I found to be
a great strength of these devices.
4. I used the application called Prezi a few times within my research as I found it to be a visually effective
when communicating my ideas and collected information in a more unique and innovative way. The use of
visual effects with creative transitions between the slides makes the progressions within the presentation
appear more understandable and informative way which the reader will appreciate in a more effective way.
Prezi also enables me to use themed backgrounds which appears relevant yet aesthetic. I find this
application very useful when wanting to present my findings and collected information in an informative way
whilst maintaining a visually effective look to intrigue the reader. Prezi also allowed me to add images and
videos from online sources which I found very useful when wanting to visually support my ideas. I used this
application within my “Audience Research”, “Shot Composition” and “Genre Research” of which I found to
be very useful when dividing and separating large amounts of information into different sections, supported
by visual features to communicate my idea more clearly.
Here are the Prezi presentations I mad within my research. They include “Genre Research”, “Shot
Composition” and “Audience Research”:
5. I used PowerPoint presentation application throughout my research several
times. I found this to be a very reliable and useful application to use when
recording information and illustrating it with images. PowerPoint allowed me to
display a variety of different layouts within my research journal which therefore
displayed my consideration for the layout and appearance of my work.
I found it hard to add videos on
PowerPoint as it appeared
disjoined and out of place, so I
decided to add only images and
text as they balanced each other
well. However, within my research
I found this application to be one
of the most consistently successful
when displaying and presenting
my work.
6. I collected all the PowerPoint
presentations I created within
my research journal to
displays that I use this
application several times
within my work:
7.
8.
9. I consider Word to be a very useful and effective application as I am able to record
all my collected information whilst maintaining an organised and regimented layout
which enables the reader to work through the text in a more effective form. This
application also enables me to add images as well as text which creates a balance
between the two. Within Word I am also able to manipulate the titles and font style
which transforms my work and displays my consideration for the appearance if my
work as I develop within my research. However, the disadvantages of Word is that
videos cannot be added and when adding images I find it harder to manipulate and
resize etc. them easily. Here are some examples of when I have used Word within
my journal for research and planning word. These documents (titled “Call Sheet”,
“Script”, “Filming Risk Assessment” and “Shot List”) are mainly text based
and so worked well on Word:
10. Whilst filming we used a digital camera to film our footage. The camera was a
Canon 80D. This camera is a very advanced high quality camera which we
found to be transportable ad easy to use after learning the different functions
an effects. We were able to adjust the many settings on the camera including
the shutter speed and aperture. The shutter speed controls the amount of time
the image is exposed for and the adjustment of the aperture enables us to
change the amount of light that is being exposed to the camera. After using this
camera on filming day I felt more advanced when using a filming camera of this
model. This camera has multiple settings and adjustments and so enabled me
to learn more about the camera technically, for example its uses and how they
can effect the shot. We also used this camera when photographing for the film
poster and magazine cover which displays the multiple functions and uses this
camera has when using it for filming a moving image and when shooting a
photoshoot/photograph.
11.
12. We used the websites “Steel Tongs” and “Da font” when importing text/font ono our
magazine cover, film poster and teaser trailer. I had used these font websites before when
creating the billing block on y film poster draft previously on my journal. However, we used
a variety of font websites for the production of our three products. I found these websites
very easy to access and they had a
variety of choices when choosing a font style to
follow the conventions of the product. They were
also very easy to import onto different mediums
such as Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator and Final
Cut.
This enabled us to
maintain continuity
throughout our
three products.
13. At the end of our teaser
trailer:
Within the our film poster
billing block:
For the film title on our film poster:
14. We used Final Cut Pro X when editing our footage after filming or teaser trailer. Whilst
post-production we began by creating a new file and then imported all our footage/shots
onto Final Cut Pro X. We then chose our favourite shots and added them to the timeline
and began to pit them in order. After organising the order of shots we then used the
effects on tis application such as the transitions, colour grading options, text adding etc.
I found this application to be very advanced and effective when manipulating and
editing footage. I enabled us to solve any problems by adapting the footage through the
adjustment options within Final Cut Pro X. The most challenging part when using this
application was when cutting the footage to size. However, we solved this difficulty by
zooming into the timeline making the individual hots easier to edit/resize. However,
when using this application I learnt the function of features I did not know before, for
example the use of colour grading in a more effective yet subtle way to create both
intensity and realism to the teaser trailer. We also used Final Cut Pro X to create our
Company Ident.
By using this application we were able to easily create our teaser trailer in an advance
way. There were minimal disadvantages or weaknesses to using Final Cut Pro X as it is
has several applications and adjustments which can transform the footage to however
we wish it to look in relation to the genre of the film.
15.
16. Within our teaser trailer we used some sounds that we found on Final Cut
Pro, such as the subtle heart beat sound. However, we used “Free Sound”
website for the sound both diegetic and non-diegetic throughout our teaser
trailer. I found this website to be very useful as we were able to transfer
specific sound we had searched for and then was able to adjust the
volume and gradient at the beginning and end of the clip of sound. We
were then able to layer sounds within Final Cut Pro with the use of “Free
Sound” music. The manipulation of volume and layering of sounds was the
most rewarding part of the sound editing as it is responsible for the
intensity and suspense created within the appropriate sections of the
teaser trailer.
We explored the sound application “Garage Band” when layering diegetic
and non-diegetic sound which could create a more dense and intense
layering of sound. However, after researching different sounds we found
more effective and appropriate sound on “Free Sound” website.
We used OneDrive to transfer sound fro one place to another which was
easily accessible and reliable when moving I from one computer to
another.
17.
18. We used Adobe Illustrator when creating our film poster. I fond this application to be very
advanced and useful when enabling us to manipulate images and transform the appearance
of our photographs. We used the shape tool along with a varying opacity and colour
manipulation. We also overlapped one image of “Jane’s” character over an extreme close up
of “John’s” character. I found the “Black and White” application to be very effective when
transforming specific layers. The “Levels” application was also very effective as it applies
tonal contrast to the image in the most simplistic yet effective way. We were also able to add
text and a billing block which was imported. This displays the advanced format allowing us to
import other texts fro a different source which was very useful. Due to the advance functions
of different tools on Photoshop we were able to adapt or manipulate any problems we faced
as there is a range of applications that gave us the power to find a creative solution. The
most challenging part to using Adobe Illustrator would be the use f the “Magic Eraser” tool as
tis can sometimes become difficult when cropping and editing the details around the image.
However, the most rewarding and interesting part to using Adobe Illustrator when creating
our film poster would be the use of colour through the image to create an abstract and
visually effective composition of black and white, colour and a bright red strip though the
centre. I used Adobe Illustrator when creating my draft magazine cover. Now by using it
again in a more advance way it displays my development within the specific application and
how I have learnt the different uses and functions of tools to create a more advanced and
conventionally appropriate piece.
19.
20. I used Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator when creating our magazine cover. I used Photoshop
to edit the basic shape and layering of the image. However, I used Adobe Illustrator for the
rest of the magazine cover creation. I began by editing the image by transforming it into
“Black and White” then manipulating the tonal density and contrast within the main image. I
then added a clock face image in the background and began adding text. This included cover
lines, strapline, mast head, film title etc. This application was not only very useful when adding
visual effects to the image but also when using complex styles with the different fonts to follow
the conventions of a typical “Total Film” magazine cover. I was also able to add shapes such
as rectangles and circles onto the magazine cover which I found to be visually effective. I was
able to adjust and adapt the text and image within this application very easily as each
section/feature was on its own layer which made the editing much easier. I found the most
rewarding and significant part of this process to be the choice of different font styles, colour
and sizing in certain places across the magazine cover. This enabled me to improve my skills
when considering the typical layout conventions of a “Total Film” magazine cover. However,
The editing and layering of the images was also very interesting enabling me to gain a more
detailed insight into the design side of film magazine covers. I also used Adobe Illustrator
during my planning and research when creating my film poster and magazine cover draft. This
enabled me to familiarise myself with the basic tools and their uses when editing and adding
text/images. This therefore enabled me to display my transformation an improvement from
then to now as my skills improved and advanced over time with practise.

24. I used an application called Emaze which creates a similar effect as Prezi that it presents
information, images and videos in a creative and visual way by the use of unique and
innovative backgrounds. However, the format and background choices are slightly different to
the Prezi application. I also found this application to be very effective when using it within one
of my evaluation tasks. I used this application within my evaluation for Task 2. I decided to use
Emaze as I found it to have the same strengths as Prezi without being exactly the same. The
appearance (background images) of the slides and the transitions between them appears very
visual and creates an abstract yet informative composition of visual elements balanced with
information/text. Emaze allowed me to add not only text but images and videos as well which I
found to be very effective when supporting my ideas and viewpoints with visual features such
as screen grabs, teaser trailers etc. I had only used this specific application a few times before
and so found the use of this presentation application to be a very useful process as it informed
me on the advantages and disadvantages of using a range of presentation applications and
formats to present my ideas and findings.
