The Bullying Effect - Short Film

This short film is going what ares it based on. It will have exactly the same setting as this (a School Environment).I like when they use a slow motion edit to show the emotions of the girl. I thought that maybe there should have been less music in it but it was still really good. I like the setting of it which is the same as our initial plan has been set out for

Genre

The genre of the short films we have been looking at has been drama.

Our short film is probably going to be based on one of the videos that we have watched. we will try to put some kind of moral behind it for example "The Black Hole" which had "don't be greedy" moral behind it.

The main genre are going to we are going to use will be put it in is Drama. Its dramatic, with some humor, lots of emotion and often an important message behind it.

We are going to use many conventions of this genre for example low angle shots to show intimidation and high angle shots to show fear. The setting will be similar to that of of it will show the genre too as we will be timing when the weather is not very good. We want to use the old common room is now its not at its best state. Outside were there are more gritty looking things we will exploit.

New Boy - Short Film

This short film is about a young african boy with a haunting back story starts that starts school in Ireland. He quickly finds out quickly exactly what it means to be the new kid. This film was the winner of "best narrative short" at the 2008 Tribeca Film Festival. This type of film would be very easy to re-create because it is almost entirely filmed in a school environment.

Online Planer

Today I have created a time plan, to do this i uses a website called Tom's Planner. It allows me to schedule and re-schedule my entire project. It is not set in stone because it can be edited at any time. It tells us what we should be doing and how long it should take. It is very easy to use and allows us to both login to the same plan and edit it.

Having a schedule like this allows us to be able to check how far into our project we should be. The planner allows us to split our project up in to samll chunks. We have used Planning, Pre-Production, Production, Review and Ancillary Tasks as our headings.

Here is a Screen Shot of our planner.

The Black Hole - Short Film

I found this short film to have a message behind it because, it appealed to the younger viewers with the effects and then it turned the minds of the audience into thinking about what it's trying to show. At the end when he gets stuck in the safe it really shows to people about greed and what it can do to people. The type of shots used in the film all have a meaning. Most of the shots were at a low angle showing that at first he had all the control in the matter and as soon as begins to lose it, the shots turn to high angle shots to signify him as a crook or thief. I liked this short film because of the parrallel sound they put with it. It was a diegetic sound of copy machines, paper everywhere, with a real office vibe which it portrayed very well
