Shot 8 analysis

  1. Mitchell Slater Research into similar products and potential target audience – Horror openings Prezi – would benefit from more supporting images. Also needs some sort of a conclusion of findings. General conventions of film openings – can you change the Prezi so that it animates and zooms into each slide? You have a ‘target audience research’ post but it simply lists the different ways in which audiences are categorized – this has no merit. You should amend to include who you believe are the target audience for horrors and why. In order to develop audience research further, consider who your market would be for your own film and how you intend to draw this audience in with your production work. You have a post in December about openings – this needs to be placed earlier and preferably needs to be backed up with images and/or videos. Why do you have the Psycho opening in a post on its own (December)? All posts need to have explicit links to coursework task (e.g. if it is for the purposes of analysis, you need to have the research included in the same post.
    Work on shotlists, drafting, scripts, storyboards – You have included a script and storyboard but only a single draft of each. I know there have been many developments to your idea so drafts should be included to represent these amendments (with comments on changes made and why).
    Organisation of actors, location, costumes and props –casting and wardrobe includes clear reasoning and comparisons to existing products. Why do you only have one location shot? You filmed in a darkened room and the woods if I recall correctly. Can you please add an explanation to the Jason Miller audition video – make it clear why you asked your actors to scream in pain! Also, you should have something to say who you chose to cast and why.
    Time management has been good.

    Overall – Level 3.

    Ordering of posts becomes an issue later on – you have some posts in December which should come much earlier. This highlights poor time management. Amend the post dates so that they run in a logical order. To enhance your mark further, undertake more of the ‘should’ and ‘could’ tasks.
