Q1a) Research and planning

1. Research- Lighting. 

High and Low Key. Sinister. Matches genre. 

2. Planning- Shot Layout.

Shows every shot needed to take, including shot size, movement and character it is focused on. Easy to follow, laid out nicely.

3. Research- Shot reverse shot, 180 degree rule, match on action, eye-line match.

All contributes to continuity. Used in real media. Good starting point to develop upon, used in Prelim task.

1. Research- Genre.

Looked into film examples such as KidUltHood. Clearer genre compared to AS. Stood out more. Obvious understanding in genre and its conventions.

2. Planning- Shot list.

Same as AS (shot layout), but presented better, more in depth. Included location and shots within it. Even clearer to read. Helpful when filming.

3. Research- Target Audience.

Used Pearl and Dean website. Specified gender and age. Worked upon research to focus teaser trailer for our target audience. Clearer understanding compared to AS.
