Blogs!

Remember your blogs are part of your final product. They should be up to date and ideally a copy of your final product should be on them by the deadline today!

FInal Deadline approaching!

FRIDAY 1st APRIL!!!

All filming and sound editing needs to be completed and saved to the network by the above date. You will also need to burn a copy of your final product onto a disc. Remember to blog all your decisions, any changes you make, and any problems you face.

Titles Task

A reminder that each member of the group should be researching examples of titles/credits to give you ideas you can use in your finished piece. Each individual needs to post a discussion of 3 examples they particularly liked or may wish to use aspects of.
Things to consider could include:
How do the film title, graphics, music, and placement, all work in the overall construction of the sequence?
Do they contribute anything to the meaning about character, mood, atmosphere or any aspect of narrative?
Are there any aspects of them you think would work for your opening sequence?

Deadline Reminder!

Remember your next deadline is fast approaching! All your rushes (unedited footage) should be on the network by Friday 11th March.

Some of you will meet this easily but for those of you who have not started your fliming, please try not to leave it until the last minute. A lot of groups have found that problems have arisen during filming which are outside of their control. If this happens to you and you miss the deadline, it will still affect your grade! Use your time as productively as possible and don't forget to book equipment early!!

School's Out!

Half term Reminders!

• Try to get as much done as you can over half term, it will make things much easier for you once you're back at College.
• Good luck to those of you who are filming!
• Don't forget to keep updating yourr blogs with how things are going and decisions that are being made.
• Be careful with the equipment you have booked out and make sure it gets brought back at the correct time.
• Be considerate when you are filming, you are representing the College, make sure you do a good job of it!

Have a nice break, see you all on Monday 28th!

Deadline 3 - Filming - Friday 11th March

Your next task is to make sure that all 'rushes' (unedited, raw footage) are completed and logged onto the Mac network in the correct file (locate AS block and group) to be signed off by your supervisor.

All filming processes, decisions and choices must also be blogged. Take some stills when you are filming as these will act as very good evidence for your blog.

Good luck!!

Permission

Just a reminder that if you are using certain locations you may need to think about getting permission to film there. If you need a letter explaining your reasons for filming please let me or your other teacher know. As an addition to this if you want to use children in your filming you must obtain permission from their parents.
