IDEAS

Idea 1:  I came up with the idea to do a short video where the audience is watching a normal film then it goes to a behind the scenes type way were everything is going wrong from the boom mic being in the shot to, the actor is messing up the lines and people are walking around in the back of the shot to which the director is getting annoyed because nothing is going right and the way he wants it to go.

Idea 2: I also came up with the idea to design an app for children with diabetes, so its easier for them to make friends with other children who have the same condition, I was kind of basing it of Pokémon go but instead of catching Pokémon they are making friends when they are walking around, they would get some sort of notification to say if there was another diabetic around to which they could message on this app and get to know the fellow diabetic and also get to talk to other people around the world, which they could find about their stories and how they have lived with the condition to and find the differences.

Idea 3: my final idea was to create a short film where my main character goes into a parallel universe where something is slightly different to the day before and she must go through the day to relies she doesn’t actually want anything to change. 

the idea i had gone with was the 3rd idea because i wanted to concentrate on my editing skills to my work and i felt that working with the software i would be able to create that to the view i see it in my head by giving the parallel universe a different feel to the footage by giving it an effect of a different colour to show the difference between the two worlds.

Section 1: Rationale/Review (Level 2 approx. 50 words, Level 3 approx. 100 words)
I have learned through the year the different processes of making media products, from creating a website with using the muse software, and creating the radio drama with using the audition software and with doing the documentary I came to love doing the editing to it all and learning the different modes of documentary which I enjoyed the most of, learning the different camera angles and the lighting to create the perfect shot. I came to know that I enjoy editing footage together then creating a website or a radio drama, so with my fascination of editing I’m going to do a short film as I'll get to edit and director my project.
Section 2: Project Concept (Level 2 approx. 100 words, Level 3 approx. 200 words)
My idea is to create a short film based on a teenager girl who doesn’t like movies, which she goes through the day and then something happens at during the night to which ends them in a real-life movie but they have to go through the plot to get back to normal, but while they are trying to get through the plot they run into people that they saw in the previous day who are acting strangely now they seem like people from a load of different films, to show that something is gone wrong, but there is going to be people, her closest friends who aren't effected yet and they help her through the plot but they get cut off one by one, to find that everything that is happing because of an alien invasion and the only way is to get to the ship and kill the mother ship to stop everyone but it's not going to be a happy ending because someone from the group turns on everyone to help the aliens. I'm aiming it to be a horror based film that there will be jump scares and gore because even though there is going to be people from different movies they start to turn bad and not like the characters which turn on the main character who doesn’t like movies to which by the end of the film because of the betrayal she ends up like one of them.
Section 3: Evaluation (Level 2 approx. 50 words, Level 3 approx. 50 words)
For my evaluation I'm going to do diary on my blog on how my steps are going, which I think will come out through different medias either written, a video report or even just a voice memo to keep up to date with the different problems I might be facing and then I will be getting other people to view my end project.



Proposed Research Sources and Bibliography (Harvard Format)
I'm going to get my research sources from different aspects of media from movies to social media to books to show the different forms

  1. Good start to the project Caitlin, You have outlined three ideas – all of which would make an interesting project. You proposal is well written and illustrates the intent of your project well. Could you also include your presentation, which you used to pitch your ideas to your peers – with any feedback/comments from lecturers?

  2. In addition to the above, could you revisit the action plan section of your proposal. Ensure that you have a detailed plan for each week, this will help keep you organised and give you something to reflect on throughout the project.

  3. I really like how you've gone into detail with your ideas and how the three are all very different! Maybe you could go into more detail about your time plan like explaining what props and resources you will need as it will explain more what your plans are.

  4. Another thing, maybe you should go back and just double check that your grammar and spelling is good and clear as there are some areas where you have spelt things wrong and forgotten to put in capital letters and punctuation marks.
