Initial response

When I first read the brief containing the task that we had been set by the exam board, I was excited to get the project underway. I am a very creative person and enjoy doing practical tasks in which my creativity is put into good use.


My initial ideas included that of a world football non-fiction documentary. This is due to the fact that the world cup 2018 in Russia is approaching and one of the set commercial broadcasters (ITV) is always known for showing a vast amount of the games. This implies that it would be a fitting fit for their TV schedule during the world cup. As their viewers at the time will mainly be football fans. However, my mind is still open to many new ideas as I am in the early stages of planning and there are a vast amount of opportunities and paths that I could take

Seven - Textual analysis

I watched an 8 minute clip from the film multiple times and analysed different aspects of the construction of the scenes such as the mise-en-scene, the lighting, the camera, and most importantly for this particular film, the characters. This is because the characters in this scene are very similar to the characters I would like to construct in my coursework At this point in the movie, in the beginning of act three, after the previous story twists, our expectations of what is to come are already well set up. But here John Doe is very confident and repeatedly emphasizes the impact of his coming act. This raises even more the audience expectation and triggers an almost unbearable curiosity for the climax.
