To create a multi-media, audio/visual piece. It can be:
- Documentary
- Fictional
- Promotional
- Abstract
Minimum time of 2 minutes.
Use of still images or a combination of still images and video.
There should be at least three separate sources of originally recorded audio (one can be copyright free).
Professional quality in all respects of images, sound and titles.
Be sure to upload the video online to Vimeo or Youtube and copy onto a disc also.
Need to include:
- A shooting schedule
- Storyboard
- 500 word evaluation of the final work
My choice is to create a conceptual (fictional) narrative through still imagery.
Narrative
To create a successful and effective narrative, it ought to follow these classic steps:
- Introduction - let use care
- Reveal the complication - conflict
- Resolution - finish in a satisfying way, but don't give it all straight away.
Good notes to bear in mind are:
- Keep a pace/rhythm
- Make sure there is a point to the story, a point of view
- Don't forget about the use of text
Creating a fictional story can be challenging, so good questions to start from are:
- What is the issue?
- What will be the events/moments? List them.
- If needed, who are the characters?
- What is the context?
- What resolution will follow?
