This task should demonstrate match on action, shot/reverse shot and the 180-degree rule. • Main task: the titles and opening of a new fiction film, to last a maximum of two minutes. • Explain the title and what happens in your opening sequence making reference to the treatment?

You need to link this to real texts you watched as part of your planning and research. Here you highlight the main features/signs/conventions of your text to demonstrate to the examiner that you have understood the role of an opening sequence and to show that you understand genre codes and conventions. • Narrative (how have you established a plot?) • Complication/Significant event before credits-Why? Will it be linear or non-linear by flashing to before the event? • Genre (where does it look like your chosen genre?) • Camera, angle, shot movement and position (Refer to specific shots) • Continuity & editing (verisimilitude?) (Pacing, Rhythm?) • Sound (discuss silence as well as the music!) • Mise-en-scene (Costumes, Location, Props etc..) • Typography (Font Colour and Size for Titles) • Iconography (Visual conventions of the genre)

  6. Part Five - How does your media product represent particular social groups?

Young People, Men, Parent (even as absent) Do you challenge stereotypes or use them? Would you have challenged them in the rest of the film if you haven’t already? • You might wish to deal with how you constructed representation through some of the following: • camera, angle, shot movement and position • editing • sound • mise-en-scene • expressionism (lighting; colour) • typography • iconography

(technical/ organisational/ audience) • What was less successful? (audience feedback) • How could the work be improved?

  8. Part Seven - What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product? (300 words) • This section should concentrate on the key decisions and revisions made in preproduction/production/post production in light of technology and skills • What key decisions did you make about technology during pre-production/production/ post production? • Why were these decisions made? • What technology did you use at each stage? (you need correct names and to identify how/ where/why used) • What were successful uses of new technology in your production process? • What were less successful? • What have you learnt? • Blogging, Wordle, Excel Graphs, Social Networking, Dv Camera, Adobe Premiere etc...
