Lesson 1 - Your 'Short' Pitches

In today's lesson you will answer the following questions;
  • What is the idea for your film short?
  • Are you able to present your idea so that we, as a potential audience or production crew, are able to visualise it clearly?
  • Are your film-making intentions realistic and practical?
  • Is your idea creative and interesting?
  • Does your idea meet the criteria of a 'short'?

AT THE START OF THE LESSON, USE THE OBJECTIVES PRESENTED ABOVE TO COMPLETE YOUR INDIVIDUAL ONLINE TARGET SETTING FORM. WHAT ARE YOUR PERSONAL AIMS FOR TODAY?


Task
You will present the idea for your short to the class. Your presentation will be filmed. At the end of your presentation, your peers will ask questions regarding the possible realisation of your idea. You will be assessed on both the quality of your presentation and the quality of your idea. The outcomes of this assessment procedure will help to determine this year's groupings. The filmed presentations will be exhibited on this blog.


RETURN TO THE ONLINE TARGET SETTING FORM AT THE END OF THE LESSON. DID YOU ACHIEVE WHAT YOU WANTED TO ACHIEVE TODAY?

Out of Hours Learning (Homework)
  • Watch and learn the techniques presented in the four videos on the 'Filming With The Canon 600D' page (in the sidebar). The films total around 40 minutes playing time. (There is a test next lesson)
