What is the aim?
What is the aim?
You are making what should be the best representation of your time at the college from the past two years, you should be exploring and truly developing yourself as a filmmaker in this project.
Because of this, the aim should be to take your film to a festival and not just a random one but to Aesthetica. Why Aesthetica? Who are they? what films do they show? How can your film stand a chance ? what genre of their showing did you enjoy the most? By researching and exploring this you
How many hours/ days/ weeks do you have on this project?

Initial Idea generating - how do I start ??
Initial Idea generating - how do I start ??
The key with an initial idea, is that it never goes beyond a concept. This gives you a lot of flexibility, as you are only highlighting what the video could be...
Give yourself parameters and stick to them... FILM is full of parameters - genre and narrative are good starters.
So if you set a horror genre before a concept there are specific codes and conventions you must adhere to, with the genre for the concept to make sense! This is the same if you consider documentary modes or decide to make a film trailer.

What stories do people have ? What stories do you have?
Observe the world around you?
Current affairs, issues, debates, trends
Some of the most popular films and TV shows are based on what we refer to as current affairs. The two examples on the left are prime examples of these.
These films and tv shows are dramatisations of a very specific UK period we still read about now, however consider how these films will be used in 10,15 years as contextual reference for this point in time...
Now I'm not suggesting you watch the news and copy a story to make into your own...
BUT consider how you can apply fiction to current affairs ?

Look at themes
What films have you seen similar to your concept, that can serve to discuss influence?
What styles are you interested in exploring for your concept? styles such as colour grading, camera techniques and lighting...
What themes are you going to explore for your concept? Your theme can be built into your critical perspectives project.
