Session 10 - Film Feedback and Setting Up The Social Networking - 18/7/12

Feeding back on our film

We started off the session by watching our film - we were all very excited to see it! We watched it through a few times and gave our feedback. There were a few minor changes and some name spelling changes but overall everyone agreed that it looked brilliant!

Preparing speeches for our first presentation

We discussed and made noted of what we wanted to say in the presentation that we will be doing at the school. Sadly since the session our original plan to show our film in assembly didn't happen because there wasn't enough time. We will be doing our first presentation in September after the summer holidays so we will be able to show the film then. We decided that we wanted just three speakers to do a presentation after the film is shown but we will all be introduced any way.

- Thomas - Introduction
- Djed - What is our campaign about?
- Paul - Finishing and questions

Setting up our social networking

We set up our Twitter account (@Ambitionfilms) - which Lanta and Djed will be in charge of, Facebook - which Thomas and Nadia will be in charge of, a Gmail email account - which we will all take responsibility for along with our YouTube Channel.

We finished the session really excited and can't wait to show our film in assemblies!

Filming day - 14/7/12

We all met at 9.30am and got prepared with make-up and the clothes we needed ready to film. It was a really exciting day as all of our words were being made into reality. The make-up artist did a really awesome job of scars on the members of the group playing gang members! We even got a tester of a really gross looking fake cut, it looked amazing!

Everyone had their roles on and off screen and filming went to plan, minus the rain - which made it harder to film the outdoor scenes straight away. It stopped raining after a few hours so we were able to get all of our whole film shot. It was a lot of fun and very tiring but it was well worth it for our film and campaign.

Thomas, Djed, Lanta and Nadia worked on a behind the scenes video and here is the result of it:
