Shot List

 I created a shot list in order to create a chart of what shots, angles and transitions I wanted to use, this helped me imagine the flow of my film. This will also help me when I come to actually filming my media product as I have an order and checklist to follow which will help me not waste time filming unnecessary shots and scenes. In order to create this, I had to cross reference my script and my storyboard to see what shots I knew I had already planned for but also to decide which ones I had to create.

Film Ideas

  Film Ideas  I completed this pre-production activity in order to write down the basics of my film extracts like ideas, locations and characters. I knew I wanted to do a thriller film extract and therefore knew who the target audience would be. Next, I made a list of all the things I needed to know and wrote them out. I firstly came up with an idea, then the title, the characters and then the others. By doing this, I have made my pre-production tasks more organised, and this will help me evaluate my ideas and see which one would be most likely for me to film. I can add to this document as I carry on with the production process if I change/improve my ideas.

Researching Film Conventions

Image
 By completing this pre-production activity I have enabled myself to analyse what has already been successfully produced around the 'thriller' genre. This allows me to take and adapt parts of the short films and use them in my film, this also inspires me to generate further ideas. To do this I researched into what were the most successful/popular thriller films, this came up as 'The Guilty' and 'Split,' these are full length films which would be beneficial for inspiring further ideas but not for looking into smaller codes and conventions as my film would be significantly shorter. In order to overcome this obstacle, I searched up thriller short films, in order to analyse codes, conventions and narrative arcs. This will ultimately positively impact my work as I can generate and improve my ideas, include similar codes and conventions in order to make sure I can adhere to genre conventions.

Learning Aim A: pre-production Report

Image
  UNIT 4 PRE-PRODUCTION PORTFOLIO REPORT Pre-production is an essential part of film production, it is crucial that these documents and procedures are done to industry standard as this will impact the level of success the production achieves. The better, higher standard of preproduction relates to a higher success level because the production process will run more smoothly, with fewer avoidable problems. Whereas the unorganised, incomplete pre-production will severely impact the success rate. I have been approached by the County Council to create a report that they intend to send to community media organisations, in hopes to receive funding for future projects.   In this report, I will be talking through essential parts of pre-production to ensure funding is received, evaluating documentation and procedures and what successful methods have already been used in productions such as the ‘One Mile Away’ documentary and the feature film ‘Whiplash.’ FINANCE AND BUDGET To cre...
