research and planning: sound test

 This is my sound test using Garage band, you tube converter and I movie. This relates to my selected genre of film, but doesn't sound scarey enough to use for the plot i have in mind.

research and planning: London trip

London

While we were in London we visited a film museum, which included memorabilia from films, and information on the history of films which i found to be very interesting. There were different rooms for different film Geners including Horror, Superhero, and Animation. There was also a room which was completely dedicated to Harry Potter, as shown on the first picture above, another room included a star wars set and other sci-fi film memorabilia. The museum was interesting and informative to look at especially the parts which i could relate to.

 

On Thursday morning we visited the BBFC for a presentation on the world of film classification. The talk was very interesting and the woman who spoke to us gave many examples of cases through her Career, i learnt things about certain films and how they got there classification rating. She gave us some useful information and made the 2 hour talk informative and with examples like 'The Dark Knight' and 'The Simpson's Movie'.
