Codes and Conventions of a Film Review

Script Update

Me and Izzy have been working on a script. We want the audience to understand Anie's struggles, however without giving too much away with the dialogue. We feel that more drafts are needed to finally get the elemnet of both.

Location Change

Today I called Miss Sweets to ask for permission to film in their store however the number was not recognised. After this we discovered that the shop has recently closed down, therefore we have been researching for a new location to film the scene.

After hard consideration, we have chose to film in Café Gelato which is actually much closer to the park and also Jess' house however the younger Annie will have to buy an ice cream as oppose to sweets. As buying an ice cream in winter is an unusual choice we have decided to make her tradition; something her and her father used to do every Sunday when he was alive and so now she continues the tradition with Buddy. I used Google maps to reveal what the shop looks like and its where-abouts with regards to Jess' house and the park.

Trial Shots

Me and Izzy recently filmed some trial shots, which we then uploaded to Youtube. Some changes may be made for the main brief, after getting some feedback from peers.

Blog Feedback

Though this feedback is quite positive I know there are certainly some things that I can improve about my blog to make it to the level 4 I want.

I can improvements by making more time management posts for the future- and adding in several time management posts further back in my blog. I also need to show some more research into similar real media products. I can do this by completely more textual analysis's of short films and also watching them for inspiration for my piece.

Film Day!

Today me and Izzy decided to film a Vlog to explain all the changes we have made from our original idea.
