RE-PITCH POWERPOINT

Two tasks for today

ONE: QUICKFIRE LIST OF 10 THINGS YOU HAVEN'T DONE
(5MINS to do this, just write into books)



TWO: POWERPOINT RE-PITCH
Each group will present, reflect on and blog on a PRODUCTION REVIEW, essentially a re-pitch.  You will work on parts of this together, but present your own individual Powerpoint, specific to your blog. To be on blogs for the Thurs P5 lesson.
Work you were supposed to have done over a week ago on illustrating your Hannah interview podcast should make this easier.

(1) Create + save a Ppt with a white or non-black background.
Include your name in the file name.
Every slide must have a clear, specific heading.
No small text - use heading numbering (eg Conventions1, Conventions2) to split across slides if need be.
No silly fonts.
No full sentences unless you feel it is an important quote (bullets only)
To be saved and copied by all, uploaded to individual slideshare accounts and posted before P5.



(2) THEME 1 TO ADDRESS: AUDIENCE
Briefly summarise your target audience, and what research you have done to justify this. Blog post screen shots should be used.
List anything else you think you urgently need to do on this

(3) THEME 2: AUDIENCE FEEDBACK
Summarise (a) steps you have taken to get audience feedback
(b) evidence + summarise this
(c) briefly summarise your response
If you haven't got any, say so and explain why.
State what steps you will take to evidence audience engagement, including feedback, before your final cut.
State what micro-elements (eg titles, SFX, music, main title, intro, violent scene), scenes etc you will cut SMALLER clips for to get focused audience feedback

(4) THEME 3: CURRENT CUT REVIEWED
Summarise my feedback
Separately list the problems, including overlaps, YOU perceive
Briefly summarise what conventions you have SUCCESSFULLY reflected in your current cut
Briefly list conventions you think you should reflect but have so far failed to do so . On both these points try to be specific on media language (but use abbreviations for speed, eg MCU) + blog/film screenshots will be helpful
Including specific post-/production dates, state what steps you will take to raise your film opening from a sub-C-grade level - to hand in a final cut before the lesson on Thursday 22nd February. (You will then have 1 week for each Eval Q as well as ongoing exam work, which we will commence next week)

(5) THEME 3: BLOGS
You will shortly get a full assessment of your blog. Before then, in this Ppt, summarise the strengths + weaknesses/gaps as you see it in:
(a) the group's sharing of posts/material
(b) the group's evidence of pre-production planning, including:

- location scouting
- casting
- costume/make-up/props
- any SFX (eg blood)
- ambient/Foley sound (planned re-recording of audio elements)
- full storyboard
- screenplay
- post before each shoot with call sheets
- post after each shoot with sample clips + reflection
- a clear trail of updated production schedules, featured through (roughly) weekly podcasts

(c) your individual work (incorporating combined vodcasts) on conventions + genre research
(d) your individual work (incorporating combined vodcasts) on industry research (marketing, distribution, budgets, box office, companies, BBFC/age ratings)
(e) the presentation of your blog

- posts always illustrated
- hyperlinks where relevant
- use of font/size/colour for headings etc
- comprehensive links lists
- relevant, helpful tagging
- posts complete
- comments published and responded to
- no posts with embedded content only, always at least a brief description/list of contents 

(f) the grade I hope to get, and the steps I will take to secure this
