Developing an Idea

So I've spoken to my teacher and come up with some ideas on an experimental piece. I looking at a possessed drama, sort of thing. Unsure yet, but I have an idea for a location, which is an abandoned town in Uxbridge.

However, I don't know what my storyline is currently.
Looking into dance and art forms of expressive natures I am formulating ideas.


Here is a mind map of my planning, its evolving into somthing i didnt expect.

Evaluation 1 - In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

Created using Visme . The Free Online Presentation Tool. Transcript: In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products? For my short film, I chose a social realist inspired by films directors such as Ken Loach, Andrea Arnold. I watched a range of films, including many from the Short Of The Week website, to glean information for my own production. In terms of camera work, I was inspired by shots in films such as ‘Fish Tank’, ‘I, Daniel Blake’, ‘ Augusta, Gone’ and also music videos such as Hozier’s ‘Take Me To Church’ and Sia’s ‘Chandelier’ as my film is about a dancer.

Evaluation 4 - How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?

For my Advanced Portfolio I made a short film in the social realist genre . I've learned a host of new skills relating to digital technology which helped me create a very successful media product, along with synergous ancillary tasks – a film poster and a magazine review. At A2 I was much more comfortable with using a wide range of digital technology and so was able to incorporate more advanced ideas into my research and planning. I also acquired a new Canon 5D camera to better the quality of my shots. So for this task, I created two ancillary tasks of a website and a film poster . This meant researching existing magazine review pages from magazines such as, Empire Magazine and film posters from Movies such as Fish Tank. After analyzing them, as well as watching YouTube videos to help me learn about the different software I was using: photoshop elements 11. I generated a poster and a magazine advertisement to develop my skills in using the software. I used my own pictures from...
