Film Analysis: Question 2

Q2- How does your media product represent particular social groups?

I have created a Flipsnack to explain this question in more detail.

Film Analysis: Question 1

This week we have been asked by our teacher to evaluate our films and answer five questions about what we think are positive and negative points about it are. The first question we have been asked is: In what way does your media product use, develop or challenge form and conventions of real media products? I have made  a Prezi in response to this question which outlines five main aspects of my film which I have evaluated.

Code Red- Draft 5 (final draft)

I have uploaded the fifth draft for my coursework film onto youtube.

Draft 4 feedback

I have recently met with my teacher about my most up-to-date film draft, and I have been given a series of adjustments I need to make to improve my draft.

Since my last draft I have adjusted my footage to make the narrative flow more easily and showed more camera control by using a tripod to create a more stable shot.

However I still need to improve on my sound and making my film long enough to fill the needed 2 minutes, I also need to make my sound more professional by blending the seperate sections together.

Filming schedule + film update

I have created a new schedule for the end of this week, however this is the best case scenario and is unlikely to happen, I think that I will be able to film all of my footage and edit the clips however I doubt that I will be able to finish my music on time, therefore I will edit my sound in Garageband on my MacBook at home during the holidays. I am planning for my final deadline for my film to be the 21st of December.

Adding to my script

My film still does not meet the required 2 minutes of footage, therefore I have developed some ideas that will add more footage to the film:

I will add some shots of a board with a map, pictures and other information about Rebecca and Nash, I have decided to have a static shot (3s) to show the overall board and a panning shot which shows more detail about what is included on the board (4s).






I will also add a mid shot of another agent in HQ running through a door and telling Mya that the main agent is in trouble 'Agent 362's cover has been blown, she's been targeted by the enemy and the information is at risk' (5s)




 

Setting analysis

As I have recently filmed more footage at the weekend, however before hand I needed to explain why I picked these locations and if they would be conventional for the action/adventure genre, therefore i have created a PowerPoint which explains why I chose these settings.
