Target Audience Feedback

I pitch my ideas to my target audience and this is some of the feedback I got given back -

> Presentation
- Presented well
- Good use of bullet points
- An improvment I could make is that the colour of the background was green and the writing is black so some people found it hard to read.

- Good use of ICT

> Conventions
- Orginal
- Dual screens good idea
- Clear and good logline
- Intertext of 24 is a good program to look at

> Audience
- Demographics was realy good
- Detailed target audience
- Improvments
- How will this film appeal to the male audience
- What other media texts would they enjoy
- Do 24 year olds relly read the telegraph?

> Overall ideas
- Narrative ideas, different could be really effective
- Needs more detail
- More theories

I am happy with the feedback back i have been given. I will take this feedback into account and change my research so it fits more to my target audience.

We have been given extra time to redo our ancillary and the final redraft has to be in after x mas holiday. I don't need to change anything for my film poster but i need to change the film review so it looks more like empire magazinee

Pictures

I took my pictures for the re draft of my ancillary task yesterday. I had a little problem with lighting. I took many pictures so i know at least one of them will be good enough and have enough lighting for a good quilty picture.

Just have to add the new photos to my poster and review =)

Film review & Poster

I have been given my feedback from Mr Chart

I have a bit of work to do for example i will re take my pictures. But overall i feel that my first draft was good and that means that i haven't got that much extra work to do over the next week and a half.

Coursework Poster

I have completed my first draft of my poster. I have had some feedback from friends. The improvements which I have been given is
- Blur the image in more so they look apart of the poster and not stuck on
- Do something about the credits and logos at the bottom. A good idea which i like is to have the credits across and logo's running across both pages.
- Change the font of the tagline in the poster

All in all I like my ideas.

Research feedback

The feedback I got was that my research was "very detailed" and that I need to do minor things to change my research. To get a few more marks I would need to add more industries other than virgin shorts, for example BBC or channel 4 films. All in all I am very happy with the way I produced my first research task.

Film poster


I have taken my pictures for my film poster. The pictures are of my main character in the sun. I still have to take pictures on my main charatcer in the rain which should be easy with this english weather.

I need to create my film magazine.

Research on Short Film


I really like the idea of having two different videos running at the same time about the same story but having different outcomes.

My Meme / Remix

This is the Remix I created. I used a video from youtube which I downloaded and edited on windows movie maker. The concept was to use 2.0 to promote video's to the wider audience. I thought I would use politics as my theme as I thought it was a current affair in England.

Meme

I learnt what a meme is. I studied badger badger which is an animation with dancing badgers. It was so popular.
