Timeline

6th September - Started AS level media coursework

First time we learnt about the course and what kind of media product we would have to make, also set up the blog, learnt about how to analyse opening 2 minutes.

11th October - Preliminary task completed

Learnt several filming techniques including shot reverse shot and Match on action, it was also our first use of the school cameras.

9th November - Initial filming shots and planning shot ideas

Produced ideas about how to use our location to the best we can, also decided what kind of shots we will use and how we are going to film.we went to our film locations and practise filming the shots and scenes that we plan to use in our actual filming this is so that if we make a mistake we have time to think about it and make changes if need be so that when our actual filming comes round we know exactly what we want to do so we will be more organised this way we don't waste any time and this means the extras in our film will be happier as we wouldn't have wasted any of their time whilst filming.

17th November - First filming weekend

30 seconds of filming produced. Began editing in class over the week, also tried to come up with institution name and the font we will be using.

7th December - Final filming weekend where we filmed most of the shots during the day and the flashback shots in the evenings.

Monday 10th December - We have now got our filming footage and we are now editing the footage and trimming it so that each shot has good continuity. We produced about 6 minutes of footage and is currently being edited down to 2 minutes in class, we also produced our own non-diegetic sound for use in the film.
