Teachers comments
1. Good film opening analysis Chris
2. Mind map on the conventions of sci fi is good research. But what about
its origins, typical films, actors, directors, awards within the genre?
Research on the genre of sci fi is needed.This has now been added.
3. Good avatar to help visualise your idea
4. Drafting of script is evident. Good observations made about the length of
the piece. You may still struggle to fit this all into 2 mins.
5. Yes
6. Well though through storyboards – being able to zoom in on these would
be helpful.
7. Clear detailed shot list. Good idea to add dialogue to help pin point the
shot.
8. Well thought through floor plans, well done
9. Good clear photos with reasons behind your choices. Being able to zoom
in to see your writing more clearly might be useful in the post.
10.Very clinical costumes chosen that fit your genre
11.Props covered well
12.Good actor bio. This could be improved by casting people and adding
pictures of them to your blog post. You could also screen test them?
13.Some evidence on your production schedule. You could add photos of
the equipment you plan on using.
14.Basic production schedule. You need to add when you plan to edit and
schedule a time for re-shoots (if needed).
Overall this is proficient work Chris, well done. All aspects are covered. Good
addition of permission slips and risk assessment. If you add the parts needed
(listed above) this could get into level 4. At the moment it is level 3.
