Smile Campaign | Pre Production

  Pre - Production  Equipment List I have created an equipment list in order to know what equipment i will need to create my print and tv advert. I have also added where they will be used and if i have obtained them yet which you can see I have. I have created this in order to be organised and to see what i need to create my end product. The Equipment list has been made so I know what I need in order to create  my end product with good quality footage which will appeal to the viewers. Risk Assessment From  I have created a risk assessment from in order to show what possible hazards there are when filming and shooting photos for my adverts. As i will do most of my filming and shooting at home then i can safely say there are not a lot of possible hazards as its a safe environment. I have created this because it helps me and other people see what and where i am shooting to let people know if its a safe place to shoot and film.  Contributor Release Form As i will be...

Test Footage / Proto-type https://youtu.be/tHtKuIR5Gs8 This is a test video i made which would act as my introduction scene of my documentary. It is rather effective in getting the genre of the documentary across and also telling the viewer what it is about as a whole. The intro sequence shows the viewer what is going to be in the documentary and effectively shows that in the montage of pictures showing different things. The actual title scene tells the viewer in words what they can expect to see and is rather clear and visible to read. I used a varitey of tools such as cut, spit and many more in order to arrange the clips and have them to the perfect lengths in order to fit together well. A few things i would change is to try and make all the pictures landscape in order to make it look a lot cleaner and more professional. I would also add another picture where the music changes on the last image just to make it cleaner and fit with the rest of the film.  I made this by gathering i...

Smile Campaign | Rationale

Image
TV Advertisement My initial idea for a TV advertisement is to grab the reader's attention by using some emotions. This could be achieved by showing the viewer some dark miserable and or upsetting footage of how mental health issues affect people in a variety of ways this could be statistics and or videos of how it affects people's lives daily. The video could have enhanced sounds in order to create dramatic effect, from things that go on in the clips. The use of foley sounds would be useful in order to enhance certain sounds. This could be shot in a home environment to make it more realistic and make it a way of showing a day in the life aspect of a person with mental health issues. Depending on the effect I try to achieve I could make the set either messy or clean in order to show the effects it can have on different people in different ways. The cinematography aspect could see swift movements and fast paced shots or the complete opposite with slow movements depending on the e...

Professional Practice   Timeline and shooting schedule  This is my current time line which includes all the dates i need to follow in order to get the product finished by the deadline date. On the timeline you can see that the dates are all separated by a one week long gap. This is to ensure that i have enough time in order to complete each task before starting and going onto the next task. The dates you see on the timeline are the dates when each thing needs to be finished by ideally to have it completed by the deadline date. As you can see the recording parts will take place from the 04/12/20 to the 11/12/20. This gives me a week in order to get shots i am happy with to the edit during the following week. However if something goes wrong i do have a contingency in place, this is to make the week after editing available for any takes that need polishing up or re taking to make the final product as close to perfect as possible. Risk assessment  I have filled in a risk asse...

Culture in the Digital Age | Problem Solving

  Chosen Idea From the mind maps i have decided to pursue the topic of film making, This is because i fell that there is more to talk about with this idea and also it will be easier to create. Also i believe it will engage with more people than the other idea this is because films and tv series are a big part of peoples life even more so in the lives of 13 - 19 year olds. I chose this idea over the others because it is more interesting in my opinion this is because i believe with the rise of influencers on social media this age range of young people look up to these people. Therefore with this documentary it will show them that they can also make content like their favourite social media influencers.  Presentation  I have managed to put together a presentation which highlights my idea and intentions very clear, i have a timeline which is easy to understand with dates showing when that task needs completing by. It has images scattered throughout in order to give a visual r...

Smile Campaign | Existing Products

  Existing Products This advert helps get the point of asking your mates how they really feel and does so by using iconic people from the England squad. This is done so that people can see it's not just normal people who suffer from stress and mental health but also big celebrities which would hopefully make them more comfortable with talking about themselves.  In this mental health advert we see how the scene is constantly moving in order to keep up the pace of the action, this could link with people who have busier days suffer more from mental health and stress due to the responsibilities they have. The scene also changes with the help of jump cuts cutting to different scenes quite frequently this could be to simulate a busy work day. In this case we are in the boots of a footballer for the England squad with all the people around him asking similar questions if he is feeling ok etc but then the one guy at the end asks how are you really feeling which is a question that is o...

Culture in the digital age | Informing Ideas

  Interpreting The Brief The company CMP media has approached me and asked me to create a media product in the form of a short documentary which relates to the topic of culture in the digital age. They have informed me that the targeted audience is from the ages of 13-19. This tells me that i need to tailor the documentary to the younger age ranges so the topic of the film needs to appeal to them. The documentary is going to be shown on social media as this is where majority of this age range spend their time this means they will have a higher chance of seeing the documentary. The films time length can be anywhere from 5 minutes to 15 minutes, however a this is going to be shown on social media then i think if we make it too long then the viewer will get bored and leave the viewing. The deadline for the finished product is the 22nd of January therefore i am going to have to plan each week in in order to meet the deadline with a finished product. The documentary has to appeal to thi...
