Get Ahead OCR Media Blog
http://getaheadocrmedia.blogspot.com/
This is a link the a blog OCR have set up for AS and A level students. On this blog students and teachers can ask questions about the course and get appropriate answers.
I have found this blog to be extremely helpful and have used some of the information on it to help improve our trailer - for example there was some confusion about how long our trailer should be as it is only a 'teaser' trailer, from looking on the blog we were able to plan a film the right amount of footage so that our trailer will now be long enough.
As you can see below we have produced an animatic, this shows the different shots we are playing to use, an estimate at how long each section should last and it always shows what we plan to use as a soundtrack. It does not however show what sound effects we are planing to use, for example the door knock and the phone ring. We chose the final sound track abducted over left out question as left out question had what showed like a clock in the background - this is a good feature as it builds tension however we do not show a clock in our trailer and therefore the clock sound is unnecessary. We thought overall that abducted was the best sound track to use. The OCR blog gave us helpful information about how we could create an animatic.
From the OCR blog we can access other students blogs from different schools, this has been very useful to see how far they have got in there coursework and also see what techniques they had used. It also helps us evaluate other peoples work and this helps us look at our own work more objectively and therefore we are able to improve it more that we would of been able to before.
