OCR Cambridge Technical L3 Media      Unit: 19   

Student Name:    Andrew Quinn                   Class:                  Minimum Target Grade:          Personal Target  Grade for task:

Assignment:  Producing a music video or film trailer

Feed Forward Blog Self-Assessment Coversheet
Areas for improvement for Task 1 to 4
-       Documentary needs changing as the original video was removed, Bubbl.us mind maps can be hard to read, more LO numbers in post titles are needed, needs a few sentences on what the other examples of other audio visual products. No completed and scanned storyboard, no sample of music source, no Recce sheets uploaded. Consent forms needed from actors. 5/11/14 post title needs to state ‘Concept idea’ LO2.
-       In the treatment refer to the audience as ABC1 with a disposable income – not ‘ working class’
-       BBFC classification is missing from your treatment in the ‘legal and ethical’ section. Also state which treatment is your ‘contingency plan’.
-       Gantt chart does not flow correctly as there are gaps in week 2 and 4. Each activity should automatically follow the next.
-       Need completed scripts to be scanned not photographed to the blog.
-       For the script, mention in the posts why you kept making adjustments to the old script as this is not clear at the moment.
-       You must make sure all details are filled in for call sheets. For example date and who is involved at the top. Upload samples of sound effects and music with copyright information and how you gained person/ copy of the copyright license. You have a lot of rushes of footage that is not usable, so you need to work on filming and uploaded more useable footage for this LO.
-       Team roles and responsibilities whilst filming needs to be posted.
-       No evidence of you setting up equipment whilst filming.
-       More drafts of your trailer with an evaluation of what was done and a critique is needed.
-       There are no shot logs, completed edit logs on your blog for the editing so far for your old idea.  
-       More evidence of editing is needed. More screen recordings to be used too instead of just screen grabs.






How are you going to address the above issues?
Add a new documentary on the blog, export Bubbl.us mind aps as a JPEG, add in the correct LO numbers in the titles, add in the sentences about audio visual products.





What do you still think you need to work on/improve to achieve these?

  • More evidence and paperwork on blog
  • Logging is the edit list and evaluation
  • Make it of a standard quality
  • Quick jokes because a trailer lacks context
  • Need more basic editing techniques
