Change of idea

As the developing process of our pervious idea continued as a group we thought that the idea is not very realistic and very far from home, so we came up with a new idea which is inspired by the song Everybody's free to wear sunscreen from Baz Luhrmann. This idea will be linked within our lives and what inspires us. 

The single shot creative media production will be a linear narrative showing a timeline from birth till a old age we are considering to continue this into our 5minutes creative media production, we will be including quotes and poems which will inspire our target audience wants they watch it. The target audience for this production will be quite open well from the age of 16+ the reason for this is that young adults can look at how they might be or do in the future and old people will be able to reflect on how they use to live whiles they were young.

The whole production will have an instrumental tune playing in the background which will go with all the inspirations that will be shown in the production. 

The timeline will be shot in many different locations which will show how our lives are and what we did, do and will do in the future. 

The moral of this creative media production is

Our film is going to be based on the presidential campaign in which Obama and Mitt Romney will be participating in through doing their speeches.Therefore we are going to start by creating the first setting of our scene through them saying their speeches followed by one of them getting shot in which a news report will occur only to find out the news reporter is the assassin.

Within our short film our aim will be to create a image that will go with the sound effects and we would like to ensure that it has a modern look therefore we will use a mixture of dark and colourful colours to convey this.The characters within film will therefore wear modern clothing in which will be formal as this will be a presidential campaign.

We will also use props in helping us to convey the message behind the story and to help us do certain things such as the performance .We will also use effects such as therefore making the overall look of the film professional and adding a good effect to the graphics of the video.

Media Weekly Log

We also needed to think about our company name, proposal and make some type of communication to inform other class mates about our idea.

This was because current is what the target audience would like to see today, concept is the idea we would come up with and production because we will be making it.

During this lesson we completed our story board and re-done the mood board and also included a word board, this mood board contain different images about the inspiration and the words are all quotes which will be inspiring. The word board tell us about the way and feeling about life.

Starting Pre-production

Identify Target Audience

The target audience for our Current Concept production is going to be 16 to 40, the reason for this is that its a one minutes production which means that it isn's suitable for a audience who would like to watch a longer production. This is a suitable production for this target audience because it won't be all serious, it would have a good mood to it. 

Moral of the story 

The message behind the Current Concept production is don't stand with the president of the United States Of America.
