Where Am I

At the moment I've started the storyboards and finished the planning work, I am going to film, edit and Daniella evaluates. There is still quite a lot to do but I think we will be able to finish it.

I found a documentary on TV which is now on BBC player which is in the similar style that I am looking at but a slightly different story:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00sv2ry/A_Century_of_Fatherhood_The_Good_Father/
It is a story based on fatherhood using archive footage and images.

Think Throught My ideas

scene1

location: street, old streets. like chapel street. the effect as shown as right.

time, morning, gloaming. to get the light effect. (the key word for it are, morning, quiet, normal life, newspaper, people walk in the street, anything it can shows people's life is going on . The home is not just the place where they live, is the community they have joined.

Research Possible Partner---The Tate St.Ives

The Tate st.ives is the only national museum in a rural context in the uk.
their definition of the 'wider community' that work with is the south west.
sprong and summer do the most visitors visit tate st.ives
Sunny day out, felt would like to sleep when the lady was talking.

SWOT Analysis

Strengths

• The project has already started. We can have it as an example
• Work with a good partner, who is a professional film maker
• Awen offers a lot of information to us that covers our project
• Get a chance to understand Cornwall's local society
• Increase our knowledge in history and culture

I've been done some of the research for Barbara Santi, who is a professional film maker and have been made many documentary films already. She can be a helpful person for our work. The project has already started. I could found lots of information when I do the research. Barbara brought in lots of the material. So I've got plenty of the footage to pick up. Some of the Cornwall history I never hear before, because this project I know more than before. For example What was it happened about the Penlee lifeboat. How the lifeboat works...balabala

Weaknesses

• Time consuming
• Capturing and editing footage
• Relying on a busy partner

I've rushed on time, I didn't manage the time very well.  Not very good at using the editing equipments. Spend more time to learn how to get the effect I want. The information always comes from our client. I've never try to ask for something, just like to wait for.

Opportunities

• Possible work experience
• Possible entry to university
• Career possibility if someone spots it
• The product could get entered into Cornwall Film Festival
• Work with a local film maker
• Begin to be professional in making film

For this project I've got lots of chance to get involve with a good partner, and get my work to show to public. To get more audience feedback. It will be very helpful for after applying UCAS. It looks good at the CV.

Threats

• The archive footage arrives late
• Deadline of the project
• Legal issues i.e. people being filmed in public
• Copyright issues

Didn't realise the footage came very late.  When the footage comes, I only got a month left to finish my work. Everything start be rush. The biggest threat is the copyright issues. I pick up a good song but not allow to use in my film. It sounds very gloomy. i tried to recreate the song, then add some solo bit, but the answer still the same. My client Barbara says, it has covered by copyright...

A of the Place I am Going to Film

Graham was actually born in Penzance.  He was born in a house which is in the morrab road penzance.

Ideas for filming

Start with old footage. Telling stories of Graham of when he was younger then go into interview with maybe a few pictures of his old home. All of what we are going to do has been wrote up into a storyboard format. I am also going to do a voice over of my voice to narrate pieces of Graham's stories.
