PLANNING : CALL SHEETS

Here is a call sheet of when we went out onto the pitches to take stills of the rugby pitch. I believe this call sheet kept us organised as we were all there on time and took the shots required for our film.

PLANNING : CALL SHEETS

PLANNIN:TOPLINE, TREATMENT AND TWIST

Planning – Media

Topline: As a boy in his last year at school, wanting to make it as a big rugby player. Last game of the season – they are playing their rivals. Xander wants to persue a career in music, but doesn’t want to let his father down.

Father never made it, wants to push his son.

Cast:

Craig – Dad

Boothe – Coach

Xander – Player

Ryan – background

Twist: Father wants child to play rugby professionally, but child wants to pursue music career.

Treatment:

Present day. A loving father wants to push his boy into becoming a professional rugby player, as he never managed to make it when he was his sons age. XANDER enjoys rugby, however he is more interested in a career in music. He feels obliged to pursue his interest in rugby as he doesn’t want to let his dad down. He has supportive friends such as RYAN who is an aspiring professional tells him to follow him dream. Xander needs to make the decision of whether to go for music or continue playing rugby. The audience do not know what he chooses as the screen cuts to black.

RESEARCH: AUDIENCE PROFILING

Here you can see the brands of social media sites which our audience use, the brands which they wear, eat or use, the shows they watch, the music they listen to and the films that they watch. This audience profiling will help us later on in the process with the forms of distribution which we choose to use. For example, we will create an Instagram page, Facebook page, Twitter handle and Snapchat account because these are the social media platforms which our target audience use. This will allow us to address them correctly and these social media platforms will allow us to communicate with our audiences during the production stage. An example of this would be putting up release date updates and short behind the scene videos to tease them about the new film. This will entice our audience to come and see our film on release as they will feel more connected.

RESEARCH: PREZI ON DISTRIBUTION

This is my Prezi on distribution of films. 

RESEARCH: Audience Analysis

You can see this Emaze by clicking on the screen shot below. In this presentation I talk about topics involving Moral Panics, Theodore Adorno and the Two Step Flow Model.

PLANNING: Target Audience

Today I started making outline notes about what my target audience for our sports film:

- Our target audience is between 12-65
- Gender target is both men women 
- They will be a mainstream audience
- They are likely to watch sports, mainly rugby as this is what our film is based on. They could also be interested in music as this is another subject of our film, so they may watch TV shows such as Glee or The X Factor
- In their leisure time they might take part in sport, or contrastingly are interested in music. They could also be interested in watching sport, or listening to music in their spare time. 
- They could wear brands such as adidas, nike or kukri as these are sports brands which sports people wear.
- They could follow sports people or musicians on social media sites such as twitter, Instagram and Facebook.
