Planning: Mind-map and checklist

Once you have completed your research, you should move onto your planning posts.

Some of the first posts you could work on are below... However, there is an extensive list on the mind-map included on this post.

Film pitch:
Create a post explaining your initial film idea - basically, the film pitch I asked you to prepare over the summer. Compare to existing films or films that have inspired your decision.

Audience Research:
Create a survey and interview your target audience. You could do a write up or create a Voxpop.

Audience Profile:
Create a profile of your 'typical' audience member - their interests, income/occupation, etc.

Development of Production Logo:

Create a production logo. Show the development of your designs and explain how you came up with the image and name.

Title of Film:

Explain your reasoning for the title of your production. Look at some similar films and explore the conventions of the titles, e.g. Social realism: Shameless, Skins, Glue (they’re all single words that link to that lifestyle/culture)


Music research:
Post the links to the tracks you’re considering using. Screenshot any emails you’ve sent to record labels for permission to use the music. Remember, you can always use Creative Commons or search on YouTube for copyright-/loyalty-free music.

Character Profiles:
Pick your two main characters to focus on. Create a profile of their age, interests, hobbies, personality. Compare them to characters from similar films.
