Teachers comments

1. You have only analysed 3 film openings (Insidious, Quantum Of Solace And Back to the Future). You need to add another film and with all of them state how these openings might be useful/inspirational to your film. Analysis of The Conjuring now added. Although no mention of how you will use these films to help with your film opening.

2. Good prezi on your genre. Could you add more images of the films etc you talk about to make it more visual? Some images now added.

3. Some work on target audience. I appreciate your thoughts on your target audience and appearance but you are trying to establish who are your ‘stereotypical’ audience members, their likes/dislikes etc. You need to know this in order to reach them with your film. This has now been re-written in a more appropriate tone.

Where is all your work Tom? This is a fail. Please upload all your work.All work has now been uploaded to blogger, with the exception of the shot list. It is a shame you have not used the time given to add this as much of your work is proficient. However with this missing this is partially incomplete – level 2.
