To Do List

Bobby,

DELETE THIS POST WHEN YOU HAVE MADE YOUR CHANGES!

Your blog is looking really good so far. You have posted a lot for research and planning and there is some nice detail, design and content included.

Make sure you upload you evaluation questions to your blog as the last posts.

Remove the embedded song from your blog, don't give the examiner an excuse to mark you down.

Add a blog contents bar to the right hand side so that the examiner can easily navigate your blog.

Explain what your two budget sheets show and why you have included them.

Your videos are great, especially the one where your mum shouts something at you while you're filming. Good explanation and analysis going on in most of them though.

Your blog MUST include a pitch, storyboard, shooting schedule and script. Details are on the AS media blog. You won't get a level 1 (E-D grade if these vital elements are clearly apparent!) Do these quick things and your blog will easily be worth an A grade.

Enjoy the rest of your break,

Mr S

Evaluation Questions



Tackle all of these questions each using a different creative medium... NOT AN ESSAY AT ALL!

1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

2. How does your media product represent particular social groups?

3. What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

4. Who is the main target audience for your product?

5. How did you attract/ address your target audience?

6. Looking back at your preliminary task (the continuity editing task), what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to full product?

7. What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

Music making process


In this video I briefly talk about the process of me making the music for our opening sequence.




 Below are example of videos i watched to help me get familiar with the Logic Pro software. By watching these tutorials I was quickly able to pick up how to use logic and eventually produce the music for our film. This process didn't take long as i was able to figure out how to use logic within a couple days of use, this resulted in  the music for our film being made within the space of week, spending about an hour a day.


Music for Film



Logic Pro


By using logic I was able to create the music for our opening sequence. The tracks helps to create and set a dark atmosphere which matches up very well with our film.
