Evaluation
How did you arrive at your idea? My idea came from me and my brother, we sat down and gathered our ideas on a mind map and he thought of creating a horror trailer and I came up with the ideas for it. How effective was your research in informing your idea? It was effective because I didn’t start with this idea at the start, I changed it right at the end so I had to change some of my work, also I had to redo my poster as I changed the name of my project. How did you develop your idea into a Finished Media Product? My ideas developed by sitting with my brother and gathering ideas and thinking about what to do and where to do it. How did you plan your media product? I created a mind map, story board, I interviewed people to get ideas, I did a power point, a questionnaire and the rest was just planning. What were the milestones identified in your plan? The milestones were interviewing people and giving out questionnaires to get an idea on what to do my idea ab
Evaluation Of Research
Evaluation Of Research The research I undertook was: looking at websites questionnaires and analysed results interviews focus group The research that was most effective was the questionnaire because it helped me get an understanding of my ideas. The research that was least effective was the interview because I only interviewed 1 person. My ideas developed following my research by asking people to give me feedback about my idea. As a result of my research, I decided to do a trailer instead of a short film.
budget FMP
How much money will your FMP cost to make? Think about travel? Food? Props? I bought a camera to film with which coast 250 pound. I had to buy the mic that goes on the camera separate and that came to 60 pound then I had to get an SD card which was 5 pound. So in total I spent 350 pounds on equipment.

This week in lesson I worked on my proposal which was where I had to talk about my FMP so what my idea is, where I am going to filming it, what props am I going to use and what is the storyline. I also created a storyboard to show what my idea is about, what the story line is, just so people get an idea on what my short film is going to be about. I feel like it went well as I got everything done, I even did more than I should of so I can get a higher mark. I am aiming for a merit or higher. What went well for me was the proposal as I could talk about my idea and what it's about. What didn't go well was the logo it was hard to create but I got it done. What could of helped me was not being distracted by my peers and just got on with the work so next lesson I need to focus on the work and don't get distracted.

The work I did this week was a thaumatrope, I also had to interview 3 people and ask them what they thought of my FMP and what ideas they have for me. I feel good about my work as I am working towards a merit, distinction level. What didn't go well was the thaumatrope. I had trouble drawing and finding information about it. What could of helped me was doing as bit more research and asking for help and I should of listened a bit more at the start. Next week I need to focus on doing the work and concentrate by not getting distracted by others.
Reflection 22 April
This week I worked on a mission statement. We had to analyse our FMP. It was hard to write and think about what to write because I was still thinking about what to do for my FMP. It ended up good at the end because I could talk about my ideas and I was confident in what I chose to talk about. The bad part was the writing as I didn't have much to say. I didn't write a lot and I got distracted my peers but I finished it in the end. I could have written a bit more and explain my ideas.
focus group
My group gave me feedback and they told me I need to consider maybe doing different camera angles like when someone is running they can hold the camera. also I need a scary title for the short film. also I need to effectively come up with a storyline so it makes it better. they also said I need a script with it as people will be talking in it. they also suggested i use props like torches and stuff as i will be in the house at night with no power. these are the questions my group asked me what product are you making? what idea are you using ? where did the idea come from? what is the genre? who are your target audience?
Mission statement
For this assignment I have chosen for my final major project to create a horror trailer and promotional poster. I have chosen this because i am good at filming and editing and i love horror films so it suits me very well and the fact that there are more horror films out these days so it will grab more attention. The visual style will be in the format an adventure horror based round a young group of kids. The narrative plot is basically where a group of kids go on an adventure to find a myth thats been around for centuries so they want to find if its true. So they went to the apparent location where the ghost has been spotted they got there equipment and headed into the woods, and basically the spirit demon like creature takes them 1 by 1 until theres 2 remaining that escape they destroy it by doing some sort of spell to kill it for good. I have chosen to set this in the present and use local locations be
SWOT - My idea
Swot SWOT – IDEA STRENGTHS What is good about your idea? Why will it work? Why is it suitable for your target audience? I have a lot of actors that are reliable I have got all the equipment I have found a suitable location to film in. As it is a horror it suits the target audience of teens. WEAKNESSES What weaknesses may affect your idea? Time? Locations? Ideas? Actors? Resources (equipment) I feel that time is a weakness because we have 5 weeks left of the project. As I am filming at night, I am not sure what the lighting will be like, or the location The actors may not like being in the dark and may not like the character I give them. OPPORTUNITIES What opportunities are there for your idea? What will it give your target audience? I have actors that are available The target audience will enjoy the horror element. THREATS What threats are there? Has it been
