A2 - Film/Television/Video

For this year in Media Studies I will be creating either;

• a music video
• a short film
• a film trailer

I looked at some groups attempts in creating their group film for St. Marks. While watching this I looked at how steady the camera was when filming a shot, How the shot was framed, like if there was too much space or if the people in the shot had the top of their heads cut off, the use of shot distances and different shots such as panning, close up, long shot etc. And if the misce-en-scene was appropriate, like if there was any unwanted objects in the shot.

All these facts will have to be thought about when I make either a music video, a short film, or a film trailer.

As i will be working with one other person (Emma) i will need to show what I have done, and we will need to do equal amounts of work and show this to achieve a high marks.

I will need to practice holding a shot steady, thinking about misce- en- scene, practice framing a shot, and thinking about what shot distances I would want in the production. Also we will need to decide what one out of the three choices we will want to create.
