Project Title

Section 1: Rationale (Approx 100 words)

During the year I have learnt many research, practical and evaluation skills. Things that I learnt is things J and L
cuts to create something more visually interesting but also with sound. I have also learnt how to create a timelapse
in premiere pro so I might be able to use this is my final project. I have also learnt the basics of how to create a
montage but during this final project I want to explore this. Beforehand I knew how to make a teleportation but
now I can add an affect to make it look more professional. Looking at things I have learnt this year it’s made me
feel more comfortable at film making.

Section 2: Project Concept (approx 200 words)

Looking onto the forthcoming project I want to create something that corresponds in a way what I want to do after
level 3 what is something to do with football. The aims of my project are to create a football film using montages
and quick cuts but maybe even use a flashback to create something visually intriguing. When creating this when it
comes to context and research, I want to watch other student films to create inspiration and use some of the ideas
when creating my own. I want to produce a montage/flashback kind of football film what has a story that has
affected a lot of players (injury) and shows that there are other ways to be involved in football in terms of either
being a fan or coach but I don’t know what the end will be yet. The idea of my film is that a football player is
training but actually is a flashback and it will cut back to normality when the injury happens so it creates the effect
of, he still thinks about it. I want to create and use different camera techniques to create the story. In premiere I
want to create a blinking effect to create a POV shot look more visually better and to help me create that
professionalism. I also want to explore 2 techniques while creating this and those are a montage what in my case
will be a training montage and also creating a flashback. When it comes to montage, I want to use skills I learnt at
the start of the year with cutting to a soundtrack to make the training visually and audio interesting. When it comes
to flashbacks, I don’t really have much knowledge with this so at the start I will use research to not just find out
how to create a flashback but also flashbacks in past movies as well.

Section 3: Evaluation Methods (approx 50 words)

So when on weeby I will weekly blog and evaluate what’s happened so when it comes to next week I will know
what I got to do next to improve and then when I finished the practical skills part I will evaluate the whole process
fully. While working with others so camera crew or even actors this could affect me personally positively because
I will know exactly when free but on the other hand I know when with people I can distracted frequently so I will
focus on getting the work done before we do anything off work example playing football

Project Action Plan and Timetable

This section provides you with an opportunity to outline your planning and organisation over a period of weeks, and the activities
you will need to carry out in order to successful complete your project within the agreed time frame. It is important that you consider
how you will balance ambition, time and realism in the realisation of the project.
This should include what you are going to do, how you will do it and by when. The more time and thought you give to
planning your project, the more successful it is likely to be. Remember to include: time spent sourcing materials,
questionnaires, access to workshops, tutorial and peer group feedback, and where you will incorporate independent study
