Preliminary Research - Film Studies

Image
 Introduction For my Film Studies coursework, I am required to produce a screenplay which is 10 pages long, equivalent to 10 minutes of film, along with an analysis of my screenplay and evidence the pre-production documents and research I conducted before creating my screenplay. In this document, I will include all of the preliminary research I constructed and any notes that are relevant to my screenplay. Furthermore, this document will include information about short films and screenplays along with the narrative conventions, dramatic qualities and the structures of short films and screenplays.  Research Notes - Birth of a Killer  The film's title is simple and self explanatory, the title 'Birth of a Killer' tells you exactly what the screenplay is about. This was a deliberate choice to play into a certain moral effect that I want my screenplay to evoke in the viewer. My screenplay is about a fictional serial killer and his personal story, from his birth, to the moments of

Unit 15 D1: Compare and Contrast Approaches

 Introduction  In this report, I will discuss the comparisons and contrasts of the messages of audio visuals promos. I will analyse and compare the choice of multiple different key aspects like the audience, approaches, narrative and stylistic choices like the use of graphics, camera shots and editing. I have chosen two audio visual promos that I have previously analysed in my P1 document for this unit.  Promo 1  TV AD | Barclays | Digital Safety (youtube.com) Promo 2 Ed's Heinz Ad (youtube.com) Compare the Audience Firstly, the target audience for both the Barclays Digital Safety Promo and the Ed's Heinz Ad promo are undoubtedly different; this is due to the fact that both the audio visual promos have different purposes and exist in completely different markets. Due to the fact that the Barclays promo is to inform, they want to inform as many people as possible, meaning their target audience is quite broad, however I believe that the primary target audience for this promotion

Unit 15 M1: Evaluate Cross Media Campaigns

Introduction In this report, I will discuss two different audio visual promos and I will analyse the different approaches used in the audio visual promos and discuss the semiotics, mise-en-scene and any techniques used in the promos. Promo 1 iPhone 7 + AirPods – Stroll — Apple Official (youtube.com) This is an Apple audio visual promo with the purpose to entertain and sell. Undoubtedly, the promo was created with the purpose to sell Apple's new iPhone 7 and AirPods but has the secondary purpose to entertain. The entertaining aspect of the advert helps sell the product as it keeps the audience engaged in the advert and they can picture themself using the product displayed in the promo. This promo utilises camera shots, angles and movement to create an entertaining promo. I believe that the target audience for this promo are people aged 18 - 30, I do not believe it targets a specific gender or race however a male is the main character in the promotion therefore men could easily pictu

  P4 My Radio Show Introduction This report will include all the planning and pre-production documents for my radio show for Unit 14. I will thoroughly discuss my proposal for my radio show and elaborate on what my idea is and how I will execute my idea. I will include the documents to evidence how I have made preparations to make a professional radio show.  Proposal My radio show is about Doncaster heritage, the specific episode I will be airing is about airplanes and aviation and is based in South Yorkshire. The purpose of my show is to entertain and inform, my radio show will be entertaining to people who are interested in aviation however I understand how this is a niche topic and therefore it will not be entertaining to a mass audience, therefore it will also be informative because I will discuss interesting aviation topics in the local area like the Doncaster Sheffield Airport closing down and I can inform audiences about the details of this situation. Over the course of my

  Introduction  In this report I will look at the processes and technologies required to produce a radio show and explain the equipment and why it is necessary. I will discuss how certain equipment is beneficial and how a radio uses it for their show. Equipment There are many different pieces of equipment that can be used when creating a radio show, however some are more important than others. The minimum pieces of equipment you need for a radio show is a mixer console, microphones. headphones, headphones distributor, active speakers monitors and mic arms. However, if you want your radio show to be as professional as possible and have the funds to do so then you can obtain a microphone processor, audio processor, phone hybrid interface, telephone, GSM interface, On Air Light, CD player and a RDS encoder. A mixing console is an electric device for mixing audio signals, used in sound recording and reproduction and sound reinforcement systems. A microphone is a transducer that converts so
