Planning your Coursework

http://thejohnfisherschoola2mediastudies.weebly.com/recce-report.html

Candidates should produce planning materials for a five-minute filmed or non-filmed sequence which should be related to the candidate's research.

 

For the filmed sequence these materials should include:

• A synopsis

• A storyboard

• A written script for the five-minute sequence

• A recce report

• Evidence of casting considerations

• A shooting/editing log

• A risk assessment.

 

For the non-filmed sequence these materials should include:

• A synopsis

• A written script for the non-filmed sequence

• A treatment

• A recce report

• Evidence of casting considerations

• Layouts for the 20 key frame stills

• A risk assessment.

 

These materials, with the exception of the script, can be presented in written and/or audio-visual formats as appropriate and should be contextualised with a clear justification for why the materials have been produced.

Twitter

I will be putting a gadget on the side of this to showcase the Twitter feed for the Media Department but I would like as many of you as possible to follow it as it will give you the information for lessons and changes to rooms or any updates to blogs that you will need to make.

I will also make sure that any trip info will be passed to you.

Facts for Exam

Digital Screens:

• Prints of 35mm films cost US$1,500 each
• Digital distribution via DVD, IP networks, cable or satellite are cheaper, but they can promote piracy as they can be intercepted
• Digital means that you can watch football/sports/television/concerts etc from the cinema
• Digital Projectors cost $150,000 each and only last 5 years
• Analogue projectors cost $70,000 and can last up to forty years
• Exclusive Runs: 1 off, Bollywood or foreign films in one off venues.
• Multiple Runs: British Film with low impact marketing, not usually a wide range of publicity.
• Saturation Runs: Massive blockbusters perhaps in 2 screens in one cinema, things like Harry Potter or Star Trek

"Film Censorship is motivated by fears about audiences and technologies"
Discuss this statement in reference to the concerns expressed about uncensored and unregulated video content in Britain in the early 1980's.
