In this task I had to look for 3 recent AS Media Opening Tasks (effective) in YouTube and analyse them from the mark scheme, because we thought that it is easier for us to do 3 each and just come together and pick which one is much more effective. I learned that just watching this videos and analysing them I thought that an opening sequence can be a little clue of what the whole film will be about and that will make the audiences' want to watch it more.

Short Blog about what I did this week
What I did this week:
- This week I was finishing off all of the work that was set in the summer holidays and the final opening sequence presentation with my group.
- We get to film our preliminary task which I think is very tiring, because I had to move the camera and the tripod every time Carolle moves.
- We get to present our final opening sequence ideas as a group including the music,props, actors, location, research, inspirational films, scripts, storyboard, shot lists. I leant that in this presentation we had to have appropriate soundtrack for the first scene on our opening sequence, to start the presentation of what your genre and theme is about and why did the inspirational films inspire you and what did you get out of it?
- I learnt that you had to have an appropriate soundtrack on your scenes to match the actions.
- When showing an inspirational film, need to show why you get inspired by it and what ideas did you get from it.
- Also, learnt about continuity and how the film needs to look smooth while it is playing, even though its edited. The prop needs to be in the right place and the actor's place and actions should be in right order.
- To improve the ideas for our opening sequence.
- The structure and layout of the presentation should be in order and not to be all over the place.
- To use a variety of films and stills and show why you like it and how by labelling them.

Continuity in Movie making (Assignment 13)
I learnt that continuity is very important in movie making. If making a movie you have to have to have the correct weather, time, props, position of actors, script, etc. as if it is not correct the whole movie would not make sense.

Our Chosen Genre Research (Assignment 11)
In this Power Point Presentation is my research for our chosen genre (Drama) and this work consists of the definition of the genre Drama and its Sub-genres and also their definition as well. Also, I thought that adding a movie as an example for each sub-genres can be quite useful as it can give the reader a hint of what kind of genre it is by knowing the film mentioned in the work.
