Film Opening Idea

After a lengthy discussion with Miss Foster and the rest of our media class we have decided to use a horse in our film opening because not many people use animals in their films as they are hard to work with but we want to make our film different to every other horror film and make it stand out in a positive way and we want it to be a unique horror film

Group Essay

We were given a group essay to complete during the half term based on a short clip of our choice and we have to complete the homework in our film opening groups and it is an exam question which asks how gender is represented through TV dramas. We will then exchange our essay with another group and complete their question based on their clip.We have almost completed this homework and are quiet proud of our work. Below is the video we have taken notes on and written an essay about

First Essay Attempt

Last week in media we took notes on a short Doctor Who clip and had to write an essay in exam conditions, The lesson after we got our marked essays back and I think I did quiet well considering it was my first try.
We also wrote three twenty five word pitches and decided to base our film opening on one of them and we want to make our film different and try something that a lot of people haven't tried but have not really decided what yet.

Our Film Opening Ideas

Here are 3 possible treatments in a 25 word pitch.

      1.    Scary thriller about friends who go camping but are met by an unexpected surprise; were they never told not to going into the woods alone?

     2.   Teen movie showing the unfortunate difficulties that life may bring, no one said growing up would be easy, as Sally finds out the hard way.

     3.    Everyone wants the perfect life and perfect family like Mollie Jackson, but behind closed doors is where the truth comes out and the heartache starts...

First Vlog

Here is a two minute video of everything we've done so far in Media since September.
