Ancillary Tasks - Film poster and film review

PPT from lesson at the bottom of this post.

In addition to your 5 minute short film, you are required to create the following:

  • A film poster
  • a page from a film magazine reviewing your film

These should be done individually and require research into conventions and analysis of similar existing products, planning/drafts as well as a finished product.

There should be clear link between your film and ancillary tasks.

Each production is worth 10 marks of your total project, and is also credited in the research and planning marks too,

DON'T LEAVE IT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE!


EG from last year. 





Scroll through this blog to see the progress of ideas and research for the ancillary tasks. http://charliechalkleya2media.blogspot.co.uk/2013_03_01_archive.html
