Survey time!!



17/2/12
In today's lesson we looked at the website that Mr Morrison created to assist us with our coursework and then we discussed how to create a good survey, here our my notes: http://www.slideshare.net/evieanne24/as-survey

Today I began to consider my survey question and how to get people to fill them in, I am either going send them to some friends on Facebook to fill in, put them on a survey website b(though this may take longer to get result) or to give them out to some people from my church. i think I will probably go with my first option as I can get the results easily.
15/2/12
 I created my survey with 15 questions. All of them I feel were relevant to the subject concerning the coursework, though some may confuse people due to not knowing the full picture of my project. i sent them out to 15 of my Facebook friends who I believe will all be reliable with for results. I hope it will take maybe 3 to 4 days for all the results to come through so that I can evaluate the results.
Here is my survey:  http://www.slideshare.net/evieanne24/survey-for-film-intro

I sent out my survey to 15 of my Facebook friends of different ages, hopefully I shall get the results back quite soon! Though only people of my age have replied so I shall make is my target audience.

Today I got all of results back for my survey; I got some very interesting results that gave me an insight into a variety of opinions that will help me further in my study, though it was only 10 responses. As I said in my previous post I have decided to keep it to one age group as my target audience. Te results have helped me come to the conclusion that I shall use my idea for the film still as most people responded positively to the idea of 60s set film: http://www.slideshare.net/evieanne24/results-for-survey-11674811

Storyboard time!!





9/2/12
We did not have a lesson today so I did the majority of my photos for my photographic storyboard (only one sub culture left to do which is Hippy, will go to a few charity shops to find an outfit) and also took some photos where I am going to being filming my film intro. Apart from a few modern things in the street its quite a convincing place to film for a 60s inspired intro. I shall begin my editing to the photos to show how i imagine my video to look like, as well as do my storyboard.
I am also going begin to write exactly what I want my "newsreaders" are going to say, prepared for when we come back half term.

13/2/12
Today I looked at my photos I took for my story board, I decided on the photos I am going to use in them. I feel it is going to be quite a long story board but I feel this is vital to get every detail for my intro to make sure it goes perfectly. I am also going to decide whether or not to edit some of them as a few have modern features within them (Bus stops). I will also decide on what "reccie"shots of the location of my intro.

My storyboard, it took a while to completed but its done at last!

Sound Research!!



Today we completed our Package video! We finished the last of the Foley and now we need to to do the evaluation. In Mr Jackson lesson we did our sound research which was really interesting, I decided to change my 25 word pitch so that it is relevant to my script, I also decided the name of my film title would be "Heart full of Soul" after the Yard Birds song.

We decided to base the riff in our song on the main riff in Pretty Woman. We then added many 60s guitar techniques, which included a 60s inspired solo and a call and response bridge. We then added a drum machine, and found the most 60s sounding drums. The feel we got from the song was a casual 60s sound, which then transcended into a sadder, slower song in the last 10 - 20 seconds. This complemented the title sequence well.You can here the song here:  The 60s Project (Heart Full of Soul)
