Using the list on the previous post, work through the planning tasks as a group, asking for feedback/teacher input as you go along.

Decide a suitable homework for each member of the group to achieve in time for the first meeting after Easter.

Check you homeworks with Miss B before writing them in your planner.

Week 6: Friday 25 March

Media lesson P7&8 10F

Remember: everything you do that is recognised as a positive contribution to the project will gain you marks. You will all start with 0 and all of you could reach 100. You can't lose marks, but you will need to be pro-active and focused in the group if you want to start gaining some.

Today's lesson - you are all at different stages. Please push on with the following (use sugar paper for 1 - 4). Aim to



1. Final idea - brainstorm/list of points - to include conventions,format of episodes, what happens, basic information agreed by the group


2. Quick list of pros and cons


3. Trailer 3 part structure - work out what happens in the trailer and the rough order


4. Shotlist - break down the trailer shot by shot, create a list of the shots you would see in the trailer


5. For inspiration, watch some previous Latymer trailers on our youtube channel latymer media. Good ones to inspire the imagination are: 2010 Teachers from Hell, 2010 Style Police,2006 X-rated Parents, 2006 Lab Rats


6. Post-it note storyboard. Ask Chris if you can choose the colours of your post-its; he will also give you a large sheet of white card. Decide on the colour code you are using and draw out each shot from your shotlist (use big, bold outline PENCIL drawings, no colour at this stage)


End of lesson; your storyboards, sugar paper and group folders should be handed in for safe keeping. Please return the pens. Keep your remaining post-its in your group project folder.

Homework: no homework as you have done your meetings this week. But keep thinking about the project and set yourselves up a facebook group so you can chat with your group in between sessions, especially when so many of you are abroad!!

Have a lovely day, good luck to the linguists for next week, and looking forward to the lessons with those of you left behind! Sorry not to be with you for the lesson :(
