Secondary research
After looking for adverts for the career path assignment i finally found one on the internet with very useful factors. It said what needed to be done to get the job and what prospects help.
primary research
After a visit from a production company and their assistant Katie i found it really useful and helpful as it helped me relate it to current assignments. As she answered questions , she told us that after making a short film it is important they are sent to a film festival as they are harder to be entered after 2 years as they are classed as an old short film. This helped me for the case study essay because we had to compare different factors to a feature film.
Academy awards
After watching Hurt Locker this year iI feel it is worthy of winning an award at this years academy award for best picture. This was a extremly well thought graphical and sound mixing piece published this year on limited release at cinemas.
Research assignment
After emailing 2 different email accounts ive finally had some joy and got a response from the director of codswallop.He informed me that the film is not posted on the internet but he is being really helpful and sending me some information on the film today.
films
After watching i love you man i was quite dissapointed to the review it was given. I found some parts funny but it came across more cheap and cheerful.
Against piracy!
After studying media and wanting to be a part of the industry im against piracy, as it is causing no money for the creators who have put all that time and effort in as well as finding the funding for it.
However i can see how some people might complain about the prices of cinemas as they are costly, but the cinema is a much better experience than a dodgy pirate copy.
Also after having researched about it on the internet and seeing the massive amounts of money lost within the industry over the years is mental and we need to help put a stop to this and gradually cut it down.
- The filming industry lost a profit of £400m-500m in 2003. The industry think it is predicted to rise within the next 3 years to 1 billion due to there being 7,000 markets still selling pirates.
- Also by purchasing pirates you are helping to fund hardcore criminals which are involved in people trafficking drugs, guns and money laundering.
- When you buy a DVD you know that it’s your property and the money has gone to a good cause and will be able to go towards the funding of maybe a sequel.

Trailers
After watching some trailers the film can seem really exciting and almost to good to be true so you have to see it! but after the film are you always left with some sense of disspaointment?cause after watching some trailers i feel the film doesnt live up to its expectations as they always put in the best parts and then when it comes to the film youve seen all the best bits so the rest all seems just pointless.
Horror
I do enjoy watching horrors, i usually prefer the originals to the remakes of horror films as i find most of the time the originals are more scary whereas the remakes are usually so gory it just makes it too unbelievable, and the originals play with your mind and this makes it more believable causing more of an impact and making it more enjoyable as it causes an adrenaline rush.
Adaptations
After watching the onion news on adaptations. I though of what I would like to see adapted, the tv series skins as it is able for us teens to relate to as it’s about to-day to-day life as a teenager including some dilemmas that do happen in real life but have been improvised on to be made worse than they truly are.
