Preliminary Project

Genre and target audience of our film clip

The genre of the opening sequence to our programme is based on comedy, which is juxtaposed with the actual serious topical issue shown in the clip. To add humour keeps the viewer's interest of the movie clip, as well as with the addition of tension to keep the viewer engaged. The target audience is teenagers, because the type of humour involved is fairly immature for adult humour, but humour more understood by people older than children. Also, the issue involved in the clip mostly affects the adolescent age group, and would be good to do from our point of view, considering we fit that group. The characters in the clip are also supposedly teenage age group, which the audience can relate to.

 Shooting and Editing Schedule

Roles of Group

Rosy Armitage - Editor

Alex Haley - Director

Libery Shaw - Filming

Tash Bentley - Project Manager

These are our assigned main roles for the preliminary assignment, although we are all involved in the ideas and putting together of the clip, therefore we may take turns in certain roles. We all worked each at different things and together for the preparatory work.

Sound

In our clip we chose sound files named 'Danse Morialta' to set the scene, 'Rising' for suspense and 'Silly Fun' for comedy. We got them all off a website that issues free downloads of non-copyrighted created music.

Risk Assessment
In The Cafe:

Wet Floors - Make sure you don't step on wet flooring and if you see a wet floor, clean it up! 
Hot Drinks - Be aware of hot drinks around you and if there are any, make sure you don't knock it over. 
Tripping Hazards - Bags/chairs and tripods are tripping hazards. If anything is sticking out that could be a hazard, move it. If it can't be moved make sure everyone involved is aware of it. 


Outside:
Wet Weather - Because of all the wet weather, outside will be very slippy so be careful not to trip or slip.
