Pitch for animation and feedback

Title-Egg and spoon

Theme-Easter 

Story: A day in the life of an egg, cadburys egg,egg at college then shows the egg growing up and going out into the real world, but then egg's life comes to a drastic end and has representation of death when the wooden spoon comes in and splatters it.

Name of our logo is EJME which is a combination of all four of our names;Ellie,Jess,Manahil,Emma.

For the beginning we have our logo and company name come up on the screen.

Target audience- 12 to 16 year olds 
the reason for this is because easter is related to quite a young audience and not many adults would be interested in an animation about an easter egg

USP- (unique selling point) easter theme because of the easter holidays coming up.

There are no specific job roles we are all working equally together.

Feedback: good and creative idea considering coming up to easter holidays also well planned out and thought of carefully however needed to change target audience to more suitable age, Pitch was nicely tied in
we engaged and interacted well with the audience
talk a bit more about target audience, firstly target audience was 15-25 but we changed it to 12-16 year olds.
eye contact was good,speaking clearly

BBFC TASK

BBFC TAsk

The case study I have chosen to research Is the boy in the striped pjamas this film was based on the holocaust and was rated a 12A, the genre of the film was drama and was brought out in 2008, most of the beginning of the film could be rated as a PG, this film was popular and also applied to both young and adult audiences, this film was educational to the younger audience because it educated them on the events of what happened during the time there was a war and many of the jews where killed, and for the older audience may have been a nostalgic experience because depending on how old they are they could of experienced the experience and been around at the time this event happened.

Based on a tragic true story so it captured many peoples hearts and pull at their heart strings. The purpose of this film was to make the audience feel sympathetic for the characters.


Cinemas had a few complains from people who where afraid the film was too upsetting and moving for a 12A audience because it is okay for adults to bring in younger children as long as they supervise.

This is my research on the Hypodermic needle theory.

Research on psychological, paranormal,monster, slasher horror

Psychological is a subgenre of horror fiction and film, where they use a persons emotions and fears to build tension in the film.


Paranormal is ghost related, most horror films use this because the idea of paranormal activity taking place in a house is an easy way to get a reaction out of the audience.


Monster horror produces fear and may cause physical harm.


Slasher horror is when it involves a mysterious masked or psychological killer.

Questions based on horror trailer:


looking at titles and what we expected them to be


1.Jupiter ascending
2.Avengers
3.Whiplash


Jupiter I expected to be a sci fi/ adventure trailer, because of the name, eventually turned out to be how I thought it would on the trailer


Avengers I expected to be an action/adventure film which turned out to be true


Whiplash wasn't what I thought it was going to be, at first I expected an action film because the clue of the name but it turned out to be something completely opposite and ended up being a trailer about music and the guy starring in it working hard to achieve something.


Question 2: was watch the trailers ^


Question 3: Trailers help audiences understand the genre of a film referring to the trailers listed above which ones fit the following genre? do any of the trailers seem to fit more than one genre, give reasons.

Genres trailers might fit into:
Drama
Fantasy
Action/adventure


I think Jupiter ascending fits into the category fantasy and action and adventure, my reason why I think this Is because the film is based on sci fi genre, and it fits into both categories because it has features of fantasy and action aswell.


I think Avengers only fits into the action adventure genre because the film is surrounded by only action there is no drama involved or fantasy.


I think Whip lash fits into the drama category because it is an intense film.
