    Audience Research
    We made a start on our audience research by using sites such as BBFC to gather information. We also sent a questionnaire to Twitter using Beth's account to gather primary audience research.
  • Got answers from Twitter and Powerpoint made

    We got a few replies on the Twitter post showing the questions. We decided to show these results in a Primary research Powerpoint that Alex made at home.
  • Risk Assessment

    We completed a sheet stating the risks of filming and the process of the coursework. We did this through a word document and later embedded it onto our blog through Slideshare.
  • Shooting Schedule

    Alex made the shooting scedule sheet while Shauna experimented with GarageBand and made a sample sound for our video (which we may or may not include in our final piece).
  • Finished research and started planning

    All our research is now completed and we made a start on our Planning section of the coursework. The first thing we did was the Treatment sheet.

  • Call Sheet and Storyboard

    Alex and Shauna made a start on more Planning. While Shauna completed the call sheet, Alex made a storyboard.

    Beth made our company logo and made a powerpoint showing the steps which she took to make it which included print screens and explanations.

    Alex made a short commentary video for the storyboard explaining every drawn shot. In the commentary she also mentioned mise-en-scene, edits, sound and camera shots and movement.
  • Started out filming

    We started our filming for the sequence. This was filmed in Alex's house by Alex and actor Reece Clark who played the Slender Man in our video.
  • Used Final Cut to start making Rough Cut

    We used Final Cut to put together the footage in order. However, because this was a rough cut, it didn't have to be precise, and we later decided we would film more footage at a later date to improve the quality of the video.
  • Finished Rough Cut and started to film more footage

    We completed our Rough Cut and compressed it to Youtube. We then decided to film more to make sure our final sequence was to a good standard and better than our Rough Cut

  • Started evaluation

    We made a start on our draft evaluation questions. We spread them out evenly amongst the 3 members of the group so that we could each do either 2 or 3 questions at home.
  • Started making Wix

    We made a start on making our evaluation which we would present using Wix. We planned to use a number of different medias in our Wix to vary the way the questions were presented. While Alex made Prezi's, Beth recorded herself reading some of her questions using the microphone and embedding it onto her question pages on the Wix.
  • Made a video for Question 3 of our Wix

    We made a video for Question 3 of our evaluation to vary the presentation of questions. Alex then edited this in Final Cut adding a few pictures and a short piece of footage that was spare from our rough cut and compressed this and put it onto Youtube, and later put it on each other's blogs.
