To Do List

You should be nearing the end of the research stage! Plesse make you complete the following:

• consider key directors of your genre and their influence.
• define your audience - age, gender, lifestyle interests and social-economic group.
• consider digital technology you may use for production.
• mood board for your idea.
• the ideaology of your specific genre - this means the overall 'feel' and 'attitiude' of your genre. Will you include specific icons, tropes?
• you do need to think carefully about audience pleasure. What will your audience enjoy? Refresh yourself on the different theories listed in your booklet - could this apply to your specific genre? Did it ever?
• Plan the storyboard (please see booklet for details.)
• Set up a focus group and consider all of the above when you question them. Blog your findings.

Please don't ever just blog a defintion of a theory or a term - be analytical; apply theory/term to your own work.
Ideally all of the above needs to be done by Monday 15th October and you should be organising a recce , a cast and taking loacation shots next week. Please aim to stick tot his deadline.
