little white lies film review pic

 this is a film review of the movie Neds in the magazine little white lies. there is a photo at the top of the page of a clip taken from the movie, which will act as a preview for the readers. the image shows a young boy looking scared face to face with a hooded figure who is standing over him, making the young boy look vulnerable and the hooded figure look powerful. the fact that we can't see the face of the person in the coat will make the audience want to go see the film to find out who it is, and why the young boy looks so terrified. for my film review, I will also use an engaging image from my film to catch the attention of the reader. the layout of the page is three columns which is a common convention of a review. underneath the image there's information about the film such as the director, who is starring in the film and when it will be released. I think this is a good idea because it is easy for the audience to see and read it.  

Editing Practise

I chose the song 'sax' by Fleur East and used iMovie to create a short piece of clips edited together to fit the song. I used a website called save media to transfer YouTube clips onto iMovie. This task has improved my editing skills on iMovie and will allow me to progress further when editing my own short film.

Short Film Pitch

The aging population are the most serious issue facing the NHS today… and that includes an increase of suffers of Dementia and Alzheimer’s. Remembering Jean is a heart-tending exploration of these issues on a very personal level based on the experiences of the writer and director. It is primarily targeted at audiences for short films who attend independent cinemas aged 18-35 but the subject matter can appeal to and affect anybody. I think it would be shown in the Tyneside independent cinema and also online on the film’s website as this is a popular way of distributing and exhibiting short films. There’s also a possibility that it will be shown in schools for educational purposes. The unique selling point of remembering jean is a drama documentary inspired by true events and the tag line is ‘memory is all we are’.
