There were many ways in which i was able to capture audience feedback, one of those being on this very site. blogger allows me to post my work onto a blog and viewers are able to post feedback comments of their views and ideas about the product. another way we went around attaining audience feedback was uploading my film onto the renowned website youtube. this being a worldwide success for featuring independent film and many other genres of moving image allowed my film to have a huge opportunity to be viewed by technically the globe. now my short film has the opportunity to be viewed by a much much much bigger audience. again users have the privilege to post comments and feedback on the product and share their views with me.<br /><br />3) the importance of new media technology<br />the importance of media technology in relation to my film was the ultimate hurdle. without all the new technologies available to me now none of what i have created would be possible. software such as final cut express has allowed me to import all that i have filmed, cut it up edit and add effects to actually make the film itself. hardwares such as the sony hd camera i shot my film in allowed me to film in such a high quality that it was almost industry standard. as said above i am able to upload all my work to websites and blogs that allow me to get feedback on all of my work, all this ties into new media technologies and their importance to me. where all these new technologies have been made available to me i have moved from being a passive viewer to an active producer (and still being a viewer at the same time). I am now able to create my own representation of myself or whatever i choose to film r make in regards to the media. this can be related to David Gaunletts theory behind web 2.0 and how people now have the tool available to them to do something about how we are represented or a representation of something, if we don't like a representation we see we can effectively get up of the sofa turn off the tv we are watching and create a whole new representation of anything we choose. we now no longer have to accept what the media feeds us as a passive audience anymore we can become an active audience and create our own. we effectively can now control the media because we can if we choose produce and view whatever we want because of all the amazing new advances that have been made in media technology as a whole.Toby Barns Wardahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00956814191042492723noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2806828551599460206.post-68374394968847958602010-05-08T07:49:00.000-07:002010-05-08T05:11:44.121-07:00Evaluation grade: 12/20Great idea, much more interesting than the first attempt.

You've thought very carefully about the set up of your shots, the mise-en-scene and the lighting (it's difficult to film at night without specialist lighting). <br />
You've used a variety of shot distances as appropriate and the material shot is appropriate to the task set. The narrative is very easy to understand so it has been edited so that meaning is apparent to the viewer. You've used varied shot transitions, captions and other effects selectively and appropriately; you've<br />
used sound with images and editing appropriately for the task.<br />
You made an excellent contribution to construction. <br />

'night school' showing two teenagers breaking into a school and getting up to mischief. this being aimed to young teens not necessarily specific to any ethnic minority or social class but teenagers in general. Then i also looked at a film called 'easy hours' where a shopkeeper is confronted by a young male in his shop and as soon as the male enters the shop the owner is constantly aware of him and watches his every move. this film may be aimed at slightly older audiences and possibly of a higher class because of the instant pre conception of younger people and how they in a way look down on them and expect them to do wrong that higher class older audiences may share.</div><div><br /></div><div>2) films I looked at where la haine, kidulthood and adulthood, sweet 16</div><div>these films aimed at similar target audiences and these films appealed to similar audiences. working class, mixed race/culture teenagers. the issues these films deal with are similar to that of mine. the troubles teenagers deal with who live in council estates, the little input they have from their parents. they all share their friends ideals rather than that of their parents. these films were also not massive hollywood money makers, independently funded touching realistic subjects and issues, these films had very similar target audiences as mine.</div><div><br /></div><div>3)who are you making your film for?</div><div>like other people in the industry i am making this film to build my portfolio for possible future breakthrough into the film industry. as a part of my portfolio this film would need to appeal o my colleagues as well as possible lecturers at university level or anyone who would be interviewing me to enter university or further education. initially i am making this film for myself to boost my film making skills, a stepping stone into the world of film making. this film would need to appeal and impress obviously my target audience so teenagers of working class background, mixed cultured strivers. </div><div><br /></div><div>the target audience for my film is mainly teenagers both male and female. This is because the issues the film deals with are of those that center around this age group and of both genders, both males and females can be drawn into what happens in the film. The social class of these teenagers is working class, because the teenagers represented in the film are of that same social class, it could be said that the teenagers in the film represent that social class/target audience that the film is aimed at. not poor people but not rich either. the educational background of my target audience will most likely be school drop outs, or the rebellious ones in school who strive to make teachers lives painful and tend not to care for their education. it could be said that the characters in the film are strivers, they are unsure of themselves, have low income and acquire possessions most of which they cannot afford so they steal it.</div><div><br /></div><div>4) how will you measure your success in having made a product which appeals to this audience?</div><div>way in which i can measure my success are: uploading my film to sites like youtube and vimeo, these sites allow you to upload your film for free and has features in which people can comment on your film and give you feedback on your product. another way is to create a survey on the film and hand it out or email it to people you know have seen your film or who are going to see the film. sites like facebook and myspace where you know a lot of people go to talk with friends. utilizing this could prove to be a success for retaining feedback on your media product. another idea would be to hold group screenings and at the end of the film have a session with the people who have watched the film and discuss and take notes of what they thought of the film.</div><div><br

The gang leader notices a rival gang have turned up to the party, they all acknowledge what’s going on and move towards the other gang, Derek sticks with the gang, his friends try to stop him but he doesn’t listen. A massive fight breaks out between the two gangs, the gang leader hands Derek a knife, Derek nods at him showing he knows what he wants him to do, as Derek moves off he is followed by a rival gang member also with a knife. People are running screaming in all different directions, finally an ear piercing cry is heard and the party clears and we see Derek lying on the floor holding his stomach, knife lying beside him, the gang he thought he trusted, the gang he begged acceptance from had left him. His friends turn up all tearful.

The basic outline of the film is that we have a young group of teens living in a heavily gang laden part of London, they start to mix and become friends with a local gang, one friend in particular (terrance) is drawn into the gang life and this is a pivotal point in the film and his life where it starts to go wrong . he begins getting into small time crimes, pick-pocketing etc and as the film goes on (we see a montage of him climbing the ladder of crime) and the crimes get worse as he goes on. Finally we have a gang to gang confrontation and terrance stabs someone and kills them. The gangs immediately disperse and police turn up. we then move to terrance at home and the police turn up, and the equilibrium is restored as he serves time in the correctional system.<div><br /></div><div>my film represents teens in london and how easily they can let their lives slip, but it also represents how holding it together and staying along the straight and narrow path can keep you safe. </div><div><br /></div><div>my institution in an ideal world would be like the UK film council and film four because these are the british film institutions that represent what my film is about, and also like british film my film is based a lot on realism, representing as true as possible what events like these lead to and representing london gang culture in its true light.</div><div><br /></div><div>the values of my film are much like lahaime all in black and white and very realistic, also based around uk independently funded films such as kidulthood and adulthood, my film will have the same values as these.</div><div><br /></div><div>my audience will be aimed at teens who are surrounded by this gang culture and crime etc, the film is aimed to reveal what gangs are like and how they can be, the crime you can get into when you look up to the wrong crowd.</div><div><br /></div><div>the language used in my film focuses on what these teens would be listening to such as RnB, Hip-hop and rap etc, which can be very aggressive music and lyrically often relates to crime. the posters hanging in their bedrooms etc all this will relate and link to the language setting of the film. hanging out on street corners/body language. also what they wear will represent who they are, such as colours that represent the gangs they belong to age groups etc.</div><div><br /></div><div>ideology most of the film will be in black and white to represent the dark and light that surrounds the film ( good and bad), also adding effects to the finished product to make it seem a little bit more grainy/dirty to add to the grime london feel of gang culture. my aim is to avoid the flash glamourous film making styles of hollywood etc.</div><div><br /></div><div>narrative like any film it will have a begging middle and end/equilibrium, dis-equilibrium and then the building back to that original equilibrium, that is represented in my film by the equilibrium of the friends having a good time and walking the straight line etc, which is then disrupted by the influence of gang crime and culture that sadly these teens get into and finally this is fixed with introducing the correctional system that they are put into (prison) which then rebuilds that equilibrium.</div><div><br /></div><div>genre- the genre of my film will be based much like kidulthood and adulthood, crime drama</div>Toby Barns Wardahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00956814191042492723noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2806828551599460206.post-34699195185477625342009-07-09T04:07:00.000-07:002009-07-09T04:37:48.727-07:00video: the package<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dynm_xyWPqid7iXiO0to8DXWkvdmITKkph-HVe1aXbQLjazq8jpZR7UKESZijMicUxgTUUScTyzOtAf41oYZg' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>Toby Barns Wardahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00956814191042492723noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2806828551599460206.post-69003103408161108702009-07-09T04:06:00.001-07:002009-07-09T04:07:21.740-07:00newspaper jpg<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKlZxlYiNMS4eKGTlf7mNbRwvVKhG80HdFX4I0HNjYZGvIbCACaJSeD_C_eqgoWEghZTT6fgfdqQo8FXadxdUquHX4TLQacwoTR8tGma1XZ1MbJEFUxdvwX0kcYqqWUp89TsoOfQ0dOaO1/s1600-h/newspaper.jpg"><img style="display:block;
