 Blog feedback and learner response

WWW: You’ve posted the most difficult piece of work so far – the practical mise-en-scene recreation. However, there is nothing else on your blog so we need to use this as a very useful lesson in making sure we are publishing work on time and fully complete.

EBI: I am a little concerned that there is nothing posted on your blog aside from the Scream recreation. Make sure you post the following to your blog

LR: Complete all the missing work and post it to your blog.

Reflect on your first month of Film & TV Language. What aspect of Film & TV language have you most enjoyed studying? What is your strongest piece of work so far? What is your weakest? What specific skills or knowledge do you need to develop before we start coursework at the end of Year 12?

My first month of Film & T language has been really good so far. I have enjoyed analysing the film posters, and recreating the mise en scene from Scream. As this is the first time I have used the Premier Pro software, I have enjoyed editing the mise en scene recreation. My strongest piece of work so far is the film poster analysis as I have covered how to analyse these in year 11, so I have enjoyed this blog task the most. I wouldn't describe it as my weakest, however while editing the mise en scene recreation, I struggled using the different tools on Premier Pro as it was very new to me, however I am looking forward to use it for the upcoming practical tasks and will be able to strengthen my editing skills. A specific skill I would need to fully develop before the end of year 12 is to practise how to edit properly.

This  history of the BBFC page  may help. 'The BBFC is here to help everyone in the UK choose age-appropriate films, videos and websites, wherever and however they watch or use them'. The BBFC helps children and families choose well by providing them with the guidance they need to help them choose what's right for them and avoid what's not . It is funded through charged fees. The BBFC is a non governmental organisation. 2) Read this  BBFC guide to how films are rated . Summarise the process in 50 words. "Solo viewing" refers to watching DVDs by yourself. Compliance Officers often experience the effect when they see films that are released in theatres. Compliance Officers will collaborate with an interpreter when there are no subtitles and the information is in a language that none of the team mem

Film Poster Analysis

Image
Blade Runner is a 1982 science fiction and action film. In this film poster, a variety of dark colours are used, along with some bright colours that contrast along with it. One colour that is used the most in this poster is black. Knowing that this is an action sci-fi movie, we can see that black may connote darkness, mystery, power and evil. As this is a sci-fi movie, we can link that the 'violent androids' are powerful and are taking over humanity. The darkness may link to this movie being a dark sci-fi film. In this poster, there is a man holding a gun, implying that this film is about a mission and violence, which links to the film genre, action. We can also tell by his serious facial expressions that he is in the middle of a mission. There is a man holding a cigarette, indicating that he has a sense of ego in him and looks really serious. Just by looking at the poster, we can see that they are rockets ,  indicating this is a movie linked to science. We can also see that t
