Josh,
some good processes have clearly been put in place here and it is evident that a good standard of pre-production has taken place. Your video was clearly recognisable from the planning put forward despite some minor changes taking place during filming. (M3)
Your pre-production paperwork does have some issues which could be improved and this should be considered for future projects. (P2)
The discussion (essay) on the pre-production process is an effective piece of writing which clearly and competently explains in some detail requirements and sources of requirements for a media production. (M1)
Some good work here on which you can build on.
Carl.

Initial Ideas Post
Initial Ideas Post
Me, Scott and Tom have decided we wish to create a DepicT! project based around social media and the way that the world now wastes so much time on them and no longer experiences real life how it was meant to be. We decided we would incorporate many different spectacles such as just everyday life walking down a road, to being missed out by friends and even extreme cases of alley way crimes. We think this film should have a serious but light-hearted tone with using as realistic dialogue as possible. The only props we should need are phones and we should only require around 4-6 individuals to be part of our talent crew. We do not want to target a specific type of media and so we will not show at any point the social media being used, we want this to be a universally recognizable piece of work that anyone could relate too. This will be filmed on the college grounds as this is the most stereotypical age group that is associated with social networks, this means that we can orientate the spectator easier into the atmosphere we want the film to follow in.

Prop and Costume list
Prop and Costume list
For our costumes we used every day normal average clothes
that any college pupil would wear such as I wore jeans and a jumper with shoes
as did many other people in the production. We did not require any set costumes
so could wear whatever we wanted each day. The only props we needed were smart
phones to emphasize the point we were trying to get across to our audience.

DepicT!
http://www.depict.org/2004/flattened-by-life/?category_request=2004
Flattened by Life
I think that this is really good at emphasizing the weight of stress and how life can put you down. I liked the way they used different locations to represent that it affects anyone and everyone. It uses mainly vertical shots and high angles to try and not make any of the characters have any type of imaginary power. It used lots of different locations as well just as shopping markets and houses etc...
It also involves a lot of people looking almost 'dead' into the camera. This helped evoke the emotional effect i believe they were going for.

The Date
It's a unique and strange video that I am not quite sure has a message just all in all a good fun movie. It had a very strange yet fun twist towards the end as the people on 'the date' got there food taken by a Velociraptor this is a very unique design and strange idea. The world they are in looks quite 'Primeval' and as if it is in the early stages of life. Just as there date is in the early stages of love. This made for a very unique and different film which in the end made it an appealing and memorable piece.

The Whale
This a video of what i presume to be a whale hunter searching for a whale in the sea however he does not know he has moored his boat and is stood on top of the whale. I feel the message in this is that sometimes the things we desire we don't need or we already have everything we need. This has a very unique animated style and uses that style to evoke the dark 'world' we live in. It is almost like on e of those pop up moving books. This gives it a very unique and appealing to the eye style.
