Special Year 10 editing task

In your pairs or small groups, use this year’s Year 12 film sequences to create a 30 second promo to advertise The Media Department’s Film Making Module. It should make film-making look really fun and exciting by:

• focusing on the best bits of this years films – ie comedy, action, scary or dramatic moments
• demonstrating a wide variety of film genres
• including some dialogue clips

But also, to demonstrate your development of skills, we want you to include:
1. Clips from the films
2. A voice over
3. One or two special fx
4. Some titles

All the completed trailers will feature on our youtube channel and the best one will be used to promote this module to prospective A level Media students on the Department’s blog.
