My Pitch


 

 Welcome back to my blog. I am Daniel Brinkworth and I attend Fort Lauderdale high. In this blog I will discuss my pitches for my final task.

Pitch 1- A 12-year-old must save his Christmas by getting on Santa nice list with the help of friends in the operation called Naughty to Nice.

Pitch 2- A series of thefts at a high-end ski resort results in one skier going on a wild goose chase to find the mystery man.

 

Pitch 1- When I first thought of this idea, I was in the Christmas spirit and really excited to incorporate many Christmas lights and the use of Colorado’s beautiful winter scenery. I realize now that finding Christmas decorations at the time that I would be filming would be difficult for me. I also had the realization that I may not be able to find someone young to play the part. I couldn’t use an older actor because it really wouldn’t fit the plot. The props and costumes I would need for this project are very much available to me. The issue is that the Christmas décor would not be readily available during the time period I would be filming my final task. Overall, I feel like this is a good option for me.

 

Pitch 2- This idea is one I am more passionate about than pitch 1. One reason is because incorporating a chase scene would be a really cool element. I also have all the props and costumes I would need for this film. Because I have been going to Colorado for years and know the place very well, I feel like I will be able to find many places to film. Overall, I feel like this may be a better option for me than pitch 1.

 

My final decision is to produce a film about Pitch 2. I feel this is more plausible than Pitch 1 and interests me much more. Thank you for reading my blog.

My Final Intro Blog

Image
  Welcome back everybody to my last intro blog ever. I am Daniel Brinkworth and I go to Fort Lauderdale High School. I am so excited that I am finally in A level media studies. I can’t wait to start my final task for a level. Last year for my final task we made an opening for a movie. Now that I moved up to A level i am tasked with making a five-minute movie. I have been so excited for this project since I first heard about it in the beginning of the year. My final task in AS level really helped me to understand what I need to do for my blogs, what I need to do for my editing, and what I needed to do when it came filming. The AS level final task gave me a good idea of what was going to be asked of me for my A level final task with some new elements I will need to include. Another thing the AS level final task really helped me do was figure out time management. I know that will be really important when it comes to this final project. Although the AS level final task required just th...

Editing for My Final Task

Image
  Welcome back to my blog! Today, I'm excited to talk about the editing process for my final task. Unlike last year, where I had a lot of help from my group, this year I'm alone. Last year, Rhys from my group took charge of most of the editing, and the video turned out great. However, this time around, I don't have that luxury. So, I had to figure it out on my own and I learned some new skills in the process. First things first, I scouted out different software options for editing. Many required payment or personal information. I then stumbled upon CapCut, which turned out to be a great choice. Once I imported my clips and added them to the software, along with the opening credits I'd already prepared, I was surprised to find that my footage exceeded five minutes. Initially, this seemed overwhelming. It actually forced me to trim down unnecessary shots and focus solely on the story. With all my clips in the software, I began editing my opening scenes, embedding titles, ...

Production Blog: Planning

Image
  Welcome back to my blog. In this blog I will talk about the planning process that took place. My group mates and I worked very hard to plan out our final project. There were many steps that were involved in making our final project. One of the major things that we had to do was our storyboard. The storyboard is a scene-by-scene depiction of what we are going to film. This is very helpful when filming because we have something to go off of rather than just trying to throw it all together last minute. Another thing that was really helpful when planning was our title research because we were able to find similar movies and look at their opening scenes in order to get ideas of what we would like to do. This also helped with the storyboard because we were able to decide where to embed titles. It is very important to consider placement of where these titles should go. As a group we need to discuss and agree where each title should go. We also needed to decide where the titles will come...
