Finished Piece


Problems that have come up.

unfortunately, daisy and charlotte were not able to make the last lesson which meant that jess had to finish the video clip alone.
when looking back at the film we realised that the music was skipping and sounded really stupid.
during the filming it was hard to keep the camera straight even with the dolly as it did not roll smoothly and when holding it free hand a lot of our clip ended up being too fast so they had to be slowed down.
Jess put the credits on alone last lesson and the film thankfully got finished.
Daisy is not here again to see the feedback but we shall let her know how it goes.

Progress

We got most of the sequence done today. Charlotte did the credits and I did some editing whilst Jess helped both of us. I think we should be able to get it all done in our next lesson!

Just a little bit about childrens film!

A little bit about Children’s Film as it is what our entire module is on!
Children’s Films are films that have been specifically made to appeal and entertain very young audiences. They are made with no other audiences in mind; this doesn’t mean however other audiences won’t enjoy them as they often do.
Most children’s films have a repetitive theme. A hero and villain often fight over good and evil. Evil usually loses which gives the right morals for young children to copy, about how you should be good and not bad and that being bad is punishable. Themes in kid’s films can really vary. They can be about all sorts of things as long as the topic they use is child friendly but most common are films with animated animals or toys (Finding Nemo and Toy Story) and those about people with special powers (Superheroes or Wizards and Witches).
Children’s films often have 4 specific recurring characters; a hero, a villain, a mentor and a damsel/female love interest/someone that need’s saving. These recurring characters make it easier for young children to understand what’s going on as they remember that what these 4 characters are usually like and what they do. Vibrant colours and friendly music are often used repeatedly in children’s films as they present a comfortable and safe feeling vibe that won’t scare the younger audience.
