Welcome and Brief

Welcome!

Hello my name is Dianne Hamilton I am a media AS student. We are looking into Film Noir and its origins.  This is a brief of the what the year has planned for me. Once we get the grip and understand the how to use the equipment we will have a go at shooting a 2 minute video for our first assessment, we’ll try and get new educated angles and have a go at getting the microphone in the right place, shooting in the right angle and using them to our advantage. This piece will be looked at and took in, everyone in the group shall have a go at editing, shooting and acting in a short film. However we are looking into Film Noir because our final piece needs to be a Noir of our kind, it’s got to be a contemporary Film Noir thriller. This piece is very important because it’s a great piece of our coursework,(60%) we’re going to use the exact same techniques as we did in our first little film and more that we had learnt in the months we’ve been there. Also we shall be working in groups of four and everyone will have a go at editing, shooting and acting. After the final piece is done we shall evaluate the piece, we shall talk about what we like, what we dislike, what we would change and why we would change it. It shall also show how I performed individually and how I done, this piece will then be presented in class to all of the other pupils there and on my blog when it is finished.
