Production Log 10

This week in media studies we had to create a questionnaire to our target audience and ask them what they think of our idea for our project we also asked what they thought about British Social Realisms
these were the question we asked:
1) Have you seen any of these films?

- Ill Manors
- Kidult Hood
- Adult Hood
- Anuvahood
- Trainspotting
- Fish Tank
- Bend It Like Beckham
- Bullet Boy
- The Full Monty

All of these films come under a genre called "British Social Realism" which is about mundane, everyday life.


2)  What do you like most about these types of films?

Our Idea:
We are creating the opening sequence to a British Social Realism film about a young Asian student, who is put under lots of pressure by his parents to do better in school even though he is already trying his hardest. This then leads to him spiraling into depression which then results to him attempting to commit suicide.

3) When watching a film like this, which of these apply to you the most and why? (choose two)

Entertainment - Watching it because you like it

Social Interaction - Watching it because you like talking to your friends about it

Identity - Watching it because you feel as if you can relate to it

Education - Watching it because you feel you are learning from it

4) Do you like our idea for our film?

5) What types of music would you like to see in thee types of films? What are your opinions on these genres?

6) Can you quickly create an idea for a British Social Realism film?

We then did a Vox pop video, we asked a bunch of strangers the following questions and we taped there answers :

We then went to a BFI south banks and we learned about TV dramas, in this trip we learned about  the type of questions that may occur in our exams and the representation of characters established in a UK and US drama, such as ethnicity, youth, gender, age, class and status, regional identity and sexuality we also learned how these are used in actual work.

We also looked at A.G.I.L.E this was used to determine the type of character we would create we looked at how produces and script writers use this in an actual piece of work, we got to take a look at an episode of Holby City in here we looked at how the story reveals the past secrets and also we see a terrible accident that takes place what we learnt about this was how much time and planning goes into it and also looked at the social class and physical ability when taking a look at other British Dramas this was to show us how it is done and what happens behind the screen.
