Production Log

PROPS/Setting:

For our film "The Unseen" we didn't use a huge variety of props, but those that we did use are very effective and relevant to the time and plot in which the film is in and about. 
Our main prop is defiantly the photos of the royal family, the black white effect on them gives off an ancient vibe appropriate for the history of them. To get the photos we had to do some research such as look up about the Royal Family and their history, Prince John being born with epilepsy helped us figure out our film plot. So we gathered up photos of Prince John and his relatives. 
Due to Prince John's disability he was seen as as an embarrassment to the prestigious family. 
The setting, Claremont Mansion the childhood home to Queen Victoria was again very relevant and a smart choice for our film setting, and is full of history.

E4 Research

E4 is a British TV channel. originally launched as a companion to Channel 4 on 18th January 2001. The E in E4 stands for entertainment.
On 16th December 2004, Channel 4 announced that the subscription channel would return to digital terrestrial TV. 
E4 was viable as part of the basic Sky satellite subscription package, due to a long term contract with Sky it only became free to watch in May 2008. 
In May 200, E4 introduced "First Look", showing episodes of popular programmes of the time such as Come Dine with Me and Hollyoaks. 
As of today E4's most popular exclusive TV show is  The Big Bang Theory

The target audience are young teens (14) to late twenties/early thirties (30) of both genders

The Inbetweeners fits into the E4 channel, due to the age attraction that it possesses, for the more mature audiences. E4 is not a channel for younger audiences and requires a fairly high level of maturity whilst watching. The Inbetweeners is a good example of this, due t the crude humour 

I couldn't find anything about The It Crowd being on E4 but it was on channel 4 Skins
The Inbetweeners
The Big Bang Theory
The Ricky Gervais Show
Rude Tube
New Girl
The Mindy Project
Brooklyn Nine-Nine
Empire
The 100
The Goldbergs
Agents of SHIELD


I used Wikipedia and the E4 website to find out the information

Spy kids analysis prep



1.      The gender is not stereotypically used in this extract due to the equality represented throughout; no damsels in distress apart from you could say when she was pacing up and down at the wedding looking nervous whereas the man clearly wasn’t. Race and nationality is not stereotypical, we see people of a variety of different ethnicities in the airport and then at the wedding there I almost a white side of the isle and Hispanic side of the isle, each for the two people getting married. The female spy represent stereotypical  spies by her changing of outfits and when they were both on the Eiffel tower the man flicks the wedding ring towards her with such precision and accuracy and she just catches it with ease and without looking we instantly know that they are not ordinary people.  Family, love and marriage are strange because at the start we clearly hear that the only thing that spies are scared of are other spies, so when two spies get marries it is very odd and peculiar they are like two very different people falling in love, both from being different nationalities makes for the love interest even more unlikely, but that doesn’t stop them getting married. The families at the wedding were all very proud to be there. The bad guys represent your typical bad guy’s vehicles and weapons, big dark helicopters with big guns and missiles, and then when the camera really focuses on the helicopters they are in formation and surrounded by dark clouds indicating that they are a threat and should be taken seriously. Love and marriage is conveyed in this extract by  the use of the iconic setting of Paris to convey a love interest, a romantic dinner together with fireworks going off also supports this.

Fragrance Advert

This is the image I wsa thinking of using for my advert, it was originally grainy and low definition but I have aded a sort of water colour affect that makes it look not as low definition. Hopefully this can work, but I may have to take a completely new image on the weekend.

This could be my bottle that I will use as it has got a ridged effect on the bottle to represent adventure and even waves that are on show in the image.

My advert title is "Horizon" and motto "There are not limits".

The target audience is outgoing, athletic people between the ages of 18 and 40.
The appeal of this fragrance is that the motto gives you reassurance that you can be confident in yourself and push yourself when doing something athletic.

I chose the colour scheme because I feel it creates a calm, tranquil atmosphere.
