Breif One

I am concentrating on task one for my AS level media studies. From this task, i am taking the film option for the course, as the course i have chosen has the choice between a TV or Film series.

During my course, i have been asigned the role of being a freelace employee for Prime Times Productions. Throughout the course it is my task to produce a promotional, two minute trailer for a film. The first task of this course is the Film and Broadcasting, where i will be filming and editing the trailer footage.
My trailer should be aiming to hook the audience into the narrative, posing questions that the film will answer. Throughout this task, i will be needing to constantly keep the target audience in mind and keep in perspective the balance between plot and spectacle.

The film itself is on a £5 million pound budget, partly supplied by loterry funding. Other films that have been lottery funded include:

• Sex 'n' Drugs 'n' Rock 'n' Roll - New boots and Panties Ltd.
• This is England - Warp Bulldog Ltd.
• Kidulthood and Adulthood - Cipher Films
• Anita and Me - Starfield Productions

My research will be continued by looking into these films and finding out more about such things as the budget.
