1) Type up your teacher's feedback   in full  plus a summary of the comments you received from other students in the class. Good sound considering it was outside, good prop use however the lighting needs to be better, Confusion between American and British terminology such as use of "Chief" rather than "Captain", Cast of the main character appears too young to be a young adult working as an investigator, Investigators are not normally alone. 2) Using a combination of your own reflection on the preliminary exercise and the feedback you were given, write  three  WWW bullet points and  three  EBI bullet points for your work. EBI: Improve lighting, Focus on implementing a better cast choice to better represent and create the character in depth and use a higher quality camera and fix the ISO WWW: Good outdoor audio, good acting and good dialogue. 3) How effectively did you complete the objective you laid out in your mini preliminary exercise  statement of intent ?

  Title: The vigilante My show will appear on netflix and amazon prime due to the audience that consumes these streaming services and also because the content that appears on these streaming services match the genre conventions that I will be aiming to fulfill in my video production. What will my 3 minute extract feature: In my extract I will focus on creating a narrative which features Mark who has had a traumatic upbringing, this upbringing will be highly intensified through various camera shots which will focus on the traumatic death of his mother when he was younger.

  1) Choose at least   three  TV dramas similar to your concept and watch at least one scene from each. Make   bullet-point notes   on everything you watch, commenting on camerawork, editing, sound and mise-en-scene. Chicago PD, BladeRunner 2049, Nobody Chicago PD analysis: -Mostly POV footage such as bodycamera shots. -Montage scenes, music, contrapuntal audio is used also. Non diegetic and diegetic. BladeRunner 2049 analysis: -Heavy crane shots/drone shots to show the surrounding area -Liminal vibe theme to all the shots, slow pace, slow music Nobody analysis: -Very dark outdoor setting vibe. POV camera shots. Fight scenes. Lack of music but instead a focus on the use of punches. 2) Write a  script  for your TV drama scene. You'll find guidance for writing a script in the  BBC Writers' Room  (click on the Script Library to read real examples of professional TV scripts).

1)  Why does the writer link the song to cinematic soundtracks and music hall tradition? The music creates a "lyrical landscape". 2) What subcultures did 2 Tone emerge from in the late 1970s?  Sub cultures of two tone/punk emerged at the time. 3) What social contexts are discussed regarding the UK in 1981?  There were a lot of riots due to the unemployment rates at the time. Deprived areas were taken over by young black and white people. 4) Cultural critic Mark Fisher describes the video as ‘eerie’. What do you think is 'eerie' about the Ghost Town video? He might be talking about the subtle tone of how empty the place is in the video. 5) Look at the final section (‘Not a dance track’). What does the writer suggest might be the meanings created in the video? Do you agree? The video is dedicated towards those who feel like they are unable to voice their opinions about their unemployment and their lack of money.

  1) Type up your feedback   in full   including the ratings out of five for each of the categories. Research 5 TV drama concept 5 Language  Terminology and theory 4 Representations 2 Audience and industry 2 Delivery 4 Total 22/30  Strong opening, excellent use of images. Already feels like a wire or top boy style idea, point on montage, POV shots show excellent thoughts behind opening. Some great iconography- pin board is a classic crime drama convention.  Really well developed narrative already great detail. Is there too much for 3 minutes though? I also think that if you need all of this perhaps some of this needs to be trailed rather than shown? This feels like a full episode. Superb delivery and use of images in presentation. Whole presentation is narrative but lacks media elements of language representations audience ect. Excellent for crime genre conventions but would like to see some media theorists. Similar to Chicago PD, multi strand narrative, good comments on representation
