research and planning - video moving question 3

research and planning - video moving question 2

In the improvement of our treatment and pitch, then from looking at our case studies, we initially went ahead looking at knowing to much as we all felt that this was the film to analyse according to its features regarding what it connotes in terms of what target audience is it aiming at. It was really short in terms of how long the video was but it also matched our ideas in terms of theme and genre.  Diving into more detail we examined on the number of viewers that viewed the film we likewise particularly took a look at the remarks that would empower us to suggest the gender of these viewers.

From our inducted research we found out that There were around 14,329 that had viewed this short film. Presently, in terms of viewers by gender, there were considerable measure of  comments given, we generally said that the audience were mixed in terms of the around of male and female commented on this video. As well as asking class mates if they would watch this type of genre in regards to our story line, most had said yes therefore we agreed that our target audience will be aimed at both male and female at the age of over 18+ as the film involves weapons and violence.

In terms of last years coursework, I believe I have experienced a  lot of additional knowledge as well as gaining experience on how to gather research and conducting useful information that enables me to move forward with my work for example listing different number of ideas for my film. In regards to using a new method in presenting, i can say that i have used a treatment, producing a pre production, an insight on our film.

In relation to gathering target audience last years task consisted of looking at media magazines press packs, which was a quick and easier way of telling who the target audience were.

Research and planning the moving image work

today our task is to complete and answer the following questions

Research - what research did i carry out into similar products

Research -what research did i carry out into my target audience

Logistic planning- how well did we organise our characters

narrative planning- evaluate our story boards or scripts.

and finally evaluating my own and group management.


What research did you carry out into similar products?

The first stage of our research were looking at short film case studies,  In relation which was similar to our genre that we were initially thinking of, which in this case was thriller/action. The case studies I personally looked at were Victim – short horror film, knowing too much thriller short film and Closed doors – thriller short film. Which were all related to our ideas that we wanted to do.

I looked at these short films as my case studies in order to identify how successful in both horror and thriller the short films were, how they appealed to the audience, how the effects were used, the camera angles as well as the use of soundtracks.

Once looking at these elements consisting within the short films, we noted down how they appealed to the audience as well as the use of soundtracks building suspense.

After major discussions and meetings with our group we outlined what will fit best to suit our genre and therefore came up with a final idea.

With gaining skills from last year course , I believe it will help me towards this year’s course such as conducting research using technological presentations, Identifying camera angles for the right purpose for example,  the use of  a shaky camera to create a fast pace pulling the audience, the correct use of colour; red emphasizing  anger or control  or black  room a fear and tension.  Elements like these will help us build a creative short film; if we have a correct structure I believe our film will turn out to be very good.
