On your blog write up what you have learnt about making a film. Include making a risk assessment , choosing and organising actors and settings, using a camera and tripod, getting good shots, using camera movements, time management and budgets (!)
If you took photos of yourselves doing the filming you could use these. This is a very good habit to get into. Using your phones is fairly easy or there is a still camera setting on the video cameras.
Over the next few weeks you need to do some research on teen angst films. The aim is that you understand what these films are about and the conventions (ingredients) that they use to target their audience. THIS IS COURSEWORK
Each of these is due to be on your blog by the Friday at 3.10pm
Week beginning 6th October
Watch at least 1 teen-angst film and write a summary of what happens.
What is in the film that attracts a teenage audience?
Week beginning 13th October
Watch at least one other teen angst film and make notes on: the characters
- the main settings
- narratives and how they intertwine
- mise en scene especially lighting, camera shots, actors, costumes, make up, props and iconography (props that link to a genre or type of film)
Week beginning 20th October
.Do the same for at least one other teen angst film. Try to find a British made one.
