Audience Feedback

I screened the finished film 'A Certain Romance?' to my A2 Media class and asked them to consider a number of questions to see what our main target audience 'teenagers - students' thought of it. I presented the findings on sticky notes in the following video:



Our feedback was 100% positive, with many commenting on the effective use of music that fitted well with the story. Also many agreed we had the right balance of cinematography with a strong narrative, it was also commented on that the film was easy to follow and enjoyable.

Q2: Time and Technology in the film Production

As a group to produce the film we used many different forms of technology.
Filming with HD Digital cameras we then had to upload the clips to edit on the programme Final Cut Pro for Apple Macs.



Also importing our soundtrack from ITunes, editing to fit with the tone and pace of the finished film.


For research and planning the internet was my main tool and I have embedded a number of youtube videos to my blog as well as a radio trailer produced on the programme Garage Band.
I also used digital technology for my ancillary tasks: the programme Photoshop proved to be an efficient tool to create a professional looking poster and magazine arcticle for my film with carefully planned images uploaded from a digital camera


Evaluation of Film and Ancillary Tasks

For my Evaluation I considered the following questions:
1. How did you use forms and conventions in your production?
2. How did you use digital technology creatively?
3. Explain the connection between your film and the two ancillary texts.
