The brief that we have chosen from OCR states that we need to create a short film and two ancillary products to advertise our product. The two we have chosen are the film poster and the film magazine review page. We decided to choose the short film as we wanted to develop our skills we had learnt in our AS portfolio by choosing a different media product and by working with new genres. As last year we created a two minute film opening, this year we wanted to challenge ourselves by creating a five minute short film.
The genre we have chosen for our short film is coming of age. We chose this genre as it is something completely different to our previous work which was a psychological thriller, this will therefore develop our media skills further. The coming of age genre also has quite loose conventions and guidelines so we thought this would give us a lot of room for creativity.
Both Georgie and I chose the film poster and the film magazine page as we thought these products would be the most interesting to make as they are the visual aspects of the brief which we both prefer to create. We both agreed that we wanted to create a film poster and we have come across film posters that have sparked an interest for the film and we wanted to have a go at creating a successful and intriguing poster ourselves. We also chose the film review page as we felt this would portray our skills better as its based on visual elements which is where we believed our skills are the strongest.
