BUMS ON SEAT

The film that i have chosen is kidulhood,the audience for this film has been given an age restriction of 15 but i personally think this film should at least be a 12 as this film has a lot of useful information for the youths that are brought up on the streets and also for people who are not can understand what actually goes on in real life.

The way the producers of this film have interacted with the audience by bring the realness of life in this film, this is a good idea as there are alot of people who can relate to this and its a good way to show people that this stuff really goes on in life and we should not ignore it, and what better way to do it by producing a film that people will be able to watch.

The way this film has been pushed out to an audience by releasing big film posters and also a soundtrack, the sound track features some of the biggest UK aritst in the scence at that time, so this was automatically going to pull in a younger audience straight away as this is the kind of music they would listen to (Rap/Grime) as it is massive in the UK.

The actor that played part in this film was aml ameen who previously made minor apparence in Holby city & Eastenders, Adam deacon who was also a fairly new actor gave the realness to the film as these people were not hollywood stars so i think this was also a good idea as people want to see the real within films.

Advertising played a huge part in this film as they had a couple versions of the trailer, this could be seen on television at the time and also still to this day youtube, Youtube is a great promotinal tool as the videos will always be there so its a constant promotion, also it was uploaded to alot of underground UK websites with a huge fanbase so this was a great success aswell

Week 1:

I recieved my assigment and i have to make a music video, the first thing i am going to do is think of what artist i am going to use and what kind of video i was going to do, once i had came up with a brief idea of what i wanted to do i expressed my ideas to a class mate and asked if he wanted to work on this project together but to do seperate edits after we filmed the footage.

Week 2:
On the second week i was ready to film my music video but i need to arrange a date that was sutable for all of us, so i had a talk with my partner and we agreed that we was avalable for the following thursday as this is a day we wasnt at college, i then contacted my artist who i had previously spoke to about the video shoot and he was intrested and wanted to get involved with the prodcution, also i had agreed to film on top of a car park as this would be a perfect location so we could get the city in the back ground as this was also one of my aims to get a good depth of field.

Week 3:
This is the week we planned to film so we all agreed to meet up in town at a set time , i turnd up on time whilst i was waiting for my partner and also the music artist who was a firther 3 hours late but thi is normal for me as im use to artist being long to film a production, we was filming on two cameras the Canon 600D and also Canon 550D

Week 4:
I was now ready to edit but i only had half a day to do this, so i thought i could get a start on it but forgetting i had to convert the footage which took up the whole morning so i didnt get no editing done in this week but whilst i waited for the footage to convert i looked at some music videos for some more ideas on how i ould edit my final footage

Week 5:
I had the whole of this week to edit but yet again i had a problem as final cut was not woring correctly so i decied to use premiere pro for the first time but i found this program alot better than final cut as you dont have to render every single clip, i got most of music video edited in this week.

Week 6:
finally i had finished my video but i was not really haoppy with it and thought i could do alot better but i had no time to re-do it so i just stuck with what i had , i took the footage home so i could colour the final music video in but had a problem as i did not have the footage editing fileso i had to colour the video as a whole which was not a good idea as some scences are abit too dark.
