Your First Film!!

Hi all, today we covered quite a bit of ground. We chatted about Hitchcock's life and times and I gave you your research task. (Remember you should aim to have watched at LEAST four Hitchcock films over the next two weeks)

I also gave you the brief for your first film, one minute may not sound very long, but it will take a lot of time to plan, film and edit, again remember you have only two weeks to do this!

We finished the lesson by learning about editing techniques, you may be able to use some of these in your film! Don't forget to get hold of a film from classic Hollywood to use in class as e.g.s of invisible story telling.

Homework:
1) Watch Hitchcock films
2) Start planning your film
3)Read notes on Classic Hollywood Editing Style
4) Get hold of a film that illustrates invisible storytelling
