Blog Feedback: October
Reminder of deadlines:
Pre-production Planning should be completed by 22nd October; the bulk of filming should be completed over half-term, ready for you to begin your editing when we return on 3rd November.
Editing will take place during Term 2 (7 weeks). During this time you can continue with minor filming, concentrating on editing the footage you do have during our lesson time. Don't rush the editing! Leave yourself plenty of time to add in any post-production footage or correct any mistakes.
During Term 2, if you complete the editing early, you can go back and add to your research and planning to ensure your blog hits all the top level criteria.
The deadline for the final (edited) product is Wednesday 17th December.

Planning: Narrative Structure
Narrative Structure of Films
Typical narrative structure is often broken down in this way:
1. Opening: establishes setting and introduces character
2. Build up: Relationships established. Development of characters and their world
3. Problem: a dilemma or series of complications. Characters are faced with an obstacle to overcome a mystery to solve, or often more than one
4. Events: a series of events/action as characters try to overcome obstacle, solve problem, discover truth and so on. Further complications may arise in the process
5. Resolution: the protagonists are victorious, problems are solved, truth revealed
6. Ending: characters reflect on events, reinstate relationships and look forward.
Narrative Structure of Trailers
The narrative structure of a film trailer could be simply shortened to this:
Opening
Build Up
Problem
Events
