TV Advertisement Production Diary

5/1/17
Today we decided upon which Unilever product we shall be re-branding (Pot Noodle), to what new target audience (upperclass) and began storyboarding, brainstorming advertisement ideas and collecting the appropriate paperwork. We went to our desired location to inquire whether we could film there but it was shut, meaning we shall try again next lesson.
6/1/17
We continued story boarding (completing 1 1/2 pages) and returned to our location to ask if we could film there. The canteen staff told us that we could film there after 3:15 pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays. We began filling in our risk assessment and went to search for a costume and discovered that our college already had a chef's outfit. Kai also filled out his minor talent release form.

Today we continued filming our advertisement. We've made good progress and are about 3/4 of the way through. It seems to be coming together and I'm happy with the shots that we've made so far. 
23/1/17
As two members of my group were not present on this day, we could not carry on filming our advert as one of them is the main character. We had to postpone filming and continue editing and piecing together our shots.
25/1/17
We had a complete group this lesson which meant that we could complete our filming. We collected props (food, drink, cutlery etc), booked out our final location and shot the last few scenes.

Photograph Connotation Exercise

Strength This particular picture was taken to connote strength. A medium shot captured from a low angle, this picture creates the feeling that the audience is looking up at the subject, making him seem strong and almost as though he has power over them. Three point high key lighting has been used to highlight and brighten each aspect of the subjects face, emphasising his implied strength. Another way his strength has been emphasised is by the positioning of his head (tilted upwards, looking into the distance, slight smile) and also his arm, held on his chest to show his physical strength. Love This picture was taken to show love. The two subjects are laying together on the ground, one with his arm around the other. The natural lighting was found to be the most effective, highlighting the two subjects and the area around them, making the effect happy and the colours vibrant which adds to the emphasis of love. A birds-eye view was the shot chosen as it entirely cap

Evaluation of Continuity Exercise

For this project, in groups we had to plan, film and edit a short film about a package exchanging possession, using a maximum of twenty shots. After discussion, my group decided that the package should be an SD card containing 'secret information', and that the exchange in possession should be from a theft. We played with the idea of making it seem humorous, maybe having a funny ending that the SD card actually contained nothing at all, but we couldn't achieve that in less than 20 shots.  The criteria required; At least two close--ups At least one extreme close-up At least two matches on action At least one eye line match At least one point of view shot A shot reverse shot sequence One camera movement  Some establishing and re-establishing shots At least one non cut transition I think we met the criteria as well as we possibly could given the amount of shots that we were allowed.  Personally I enjoyed the entire process, as I

Ownership and Funding

Ownership concepts Public Service Broadcasting - often referred to as PSB, this refers to broadcasting intended for public benefit. OFCOM requirements state that certain television/radio broadcasters such as the BBC fulfill parts of the requirements as part of their licence. The BBC was the first public service broadcaster in the UK. Commercial Broadcasting - also called private broadcasting, this is the broadcasting of programmes by a privately owned corporate media. Commercial broadcasting is based upon the airing of advertisements for profit, and channels such as ITV and Channel 4 do this.  Corporate and Private Ownership - corporate ownership is the shared ownership of a product by two or more corporations. It is considerably complex as although an individual or company may own all the shares, they are not personally responsible for it. A corporation  has many rights, such as to enter into contracts, loan and borrow money, sue, hire, and pay taxes. However, private own
