TV Advert Evaluation

TV Advert Evaluation

The Brief

The idea of the advert was to have a 1970's Gangster-esque style to the piece. We were thinking of having the pot noodle as the focus of a deal between the two characters - one being more of an intimidated protagonist and the other being an intimidating antagonist. We decided to use Pot Noodle because it is a consumable item in which could be traded. We decided it is easily portable and so it would be the best to store in a duffel bag during the advert. 
We decided that the current audience would be males of around our age and up due to the darker setting which may be confusing to a younger audience, as the humor of the advert may not connect with them. 

The Finished Product and Feedback

The feedback was mainly positive, with the subtle humor being well received - although constructive criticism was also given. Some of the shots were said to be inconsistent with lighting as well as slightly grainy. Despite this, the overall camera work and story line were given positive feedback. 
I feel like we managed to get our main message across to out audience, with the story line being for a slightly older audience than the pot noodle adverts at the moment. I feel like the positive outlook on the old-school gangster films (with the addition to humor) would allow our target audience to understand that it is aimed towards them as it is more of a young-adult style humor.

3MW Proposal

My idea for a documentary was one about the gaming industry – and the popularity and the industry can has. I plan to use some interviews, including  small clips to add to the context of what is happening. I will try to make these clips small because I want most of the presentation to be my own work instead of someone else’s. I would say the genre of my documentary would edge towards the educational however infotainment side of the genre, just due to the fact that although I will try to explain what I have learned throughout, gaming is more of a widely interesting topic to the correct audience, rather than something that will teach the viewer a more academic subject. My primary audience would be 14-18 year olds who are already into gaming and want to learn more about the industry they’re already so invested in. The reason the audience would be of this age is because it’s the age the majority of people with an interest in the subject are, as well as an age not too young to unde

The Pre-Production Process

The Pre-Production Process Pre-Production is one of the 3 main parts of a production, (Pre-Production, Production and Post-Production) and is the planning section of the process. When used in a moving image production, the type of moving image production, source of finance, requirements, time and the legal side of the motion picture are all taken into account. This stage begins once the project in question has been ‘greenlit’. Type of Production Our production was a short independent film for a college project which we distributed on YouTube. Two of the most well-known types of production include Hollywood and Independent movies. Hollywood movies are more publicised due to the high budget – meaning it is easier for advertisements to be strategically placed throughout media in order to attract attention of possible consumers. The ‘trailers’ for these movies are regularly shown at film festivals, in cinemas, on TV and in places easy for the public eye to see, such as on

The Dark Knight Film Review

Film and TV  The Dark Knight Film Review Although DC films - and any superhero films in general - are usually brushed aside as a waste of space, Christopher Nolan really has created a blockbuster in 'the Dark Knight'.  The film is the 2nd in a trilogy of great films, racking up 8 Academy Awards, and with the late Heath Ledger going on to win countless awards for his role of 'best supporting actor' and Bale's stony, darker twist on the caped crusader, the film is critically acclaimed to be one of the best superhero movies - if not the best - to be shown in theatres. The film follows Bruce Wayne/Batman, (Christian Bale) district attorney Harvey Dent, (Aaron Eckhart) and James Gordon (Gary Oldham) as they set out to wipe Gotham of crime for good, only to be caught up in a war across the city against a criminal mastermind known simply as 'the Joker'. (Heath Ledger)  The Dark Knight ranks at 4th on IMDb's 'Top Rated Movies' l
