Task one - Sources of Information



To gather my information on which was the best way to film, edit and create my Ident, I came up with many types of audience research and target audience to get the idea that I was looking for. I went on survey monkey and created a survey relating to my target audience asking them questions about my ident and what type it should be and the theme of it. This was very useful.

 For one of them I chose two styles/themes that i wanted to have which was cheeky and urban themed and by doing this research I discovered that a kind of cheeky and fun style would go better for my target audience which the age ranges from 13 - 20 years old. This was very useful and I highly recommend if for someone who aims for similar objectives. I also done many more to help me to complete and make up mind. Such as storyboards.

They are very good for putting ideas together and comparing. This is a okay way because they are next to each other and it is easy to compare which one would best suit my ident and from this storyboard I have chose the best one in my opinion which was the idea that I am doing now. This was also very good because it gave me a better understanding to what I want to do. In the story board I done rough sketches to give me and others who look at the drawing a idea of what I want. I also gave a clear description of is going on in the picture. This okay to use but i did not find it very useful because i already had a picture of the Idents that i wanted to do before i created a storyboard. 

The location visit sheet also helped me out a lot because it can remind me where my location is and the dangers and cautions I have to look out for whilst filming. This is from my pre production sheets that I have done on another post. Also I completed my risk assessment which highlights the possible dangers for the my filming crew and the actor. It has the solutions to what you should do if anything goes wrong. My production budget shows me the prices of all the equipment and the total cost of the filming all in together. I also did the contact details of everyone who is going to be involved with the shooting of my ident. 


And Finally the contingency plan is a short brief description of the Ident and what is going to be taking place in the ident, the shots and the reason behind why I am doing it. These were the best help because no matter what goes wrong i will always have the pre production documents that I can refer to.

Pre Production documents

For one part of my task I had to create pre production documents this includes the following;

  • Proposal
  • Production Schedule Part One 
  • Production Schedule - Location Visit
  • Production Schedule - Call Sheet
  • Production Schedule - Contact details
  • Contingency Plan
  • Risk Assessment 
  • Production Budget 
  • Production Diary 
I have already completed my Proposal. What I had to do was give a brief information what what i was going to do, so It will always be there for a reminder of what to do. so I can always refer back to it. Here is what it looks like; 


As you can see it is easy to look at and is very brief, which was my aim to make it like. 





This is the production budget for my ident. As you can see I have come up with all of the prices of all the equipment that I will need in order to be successful, and have worked out the total production budget.







 This will help me just incase I don't have enough or I go over my set budget. On the item side, it has everything that I need, and the cost. I can always refer to this later on during the making of my ident, and even my music video that I am going to producing.

This is my risk assessment. Here are the basic dangers that would be there whilst i would be filming and i have highlighted them and the solutions that would have to take place. I also have emergency contact numbers incase anything goes wrong and emergency services numbers that you would have to call.







Here is my Location schudule location. Here i give an brief explanation on where i am going to be filming. I have an image of where I am going to do it, and the location on google maps.









Here is my Contingency plan. here i have explained any problems that might occur whilst filming. This relates to the weather, the equipment and the actor etc.
On the Left is my production Schedule cast and crew contact details. Here are the contact details for everyone that is involved in the making of my ident.

Top three ideas, Survey

This is the little survey i created to get an idea of which one people would rather see whilst watching my music channel VIBE.

I gave a brief description of the ideas in separate boxes to make it clear and so you can tell them apart. I also put a little text box to each of the ideas so members of the public can text the one which they most like.

I have made it clear in what each are about, and what you have to do.
