EPQ – Progress Review / Research Review / Planning Ahead

So far, I have used planning, analysing and organistation skills to plan out the details of my product. This includes making a Gantt chart to plan the creation of my films, analysing other short films to learn more about the creation process and what features are successful in a film, researching production teachniques with books and manuals etc.

What technical skills have you used?


What new skills have you learnt?
I have learnt how to effectively analyse a film in terms of what parts of the production were successful and unsuccessful in showing the meaning of the film. Also, I have learnt how to plan a film production (e.g. timings via a Gantt chart, equipment planning etc.).


Name and discuss the sources have you used so far?
About a Girl - Short Film
The Gunfighter - Short Film
The Expert - Short Film
Alone - Short Film
The Heist - Short Film
Adobe Premiere Pro Guide
Description of the sources. What was you hoping to gain from the research?

Evaluate - Have your research techniques been successful so far? Why?
My research techniques have been successful so far, as I have learnt from each one different parts of production for my short film - use of camera angles, editing techniques and when to use them etc.

Has the information been useful? How /Why?
The information has been useful, as I can now plan my film better from a technical standpoint - taking into account editing, camerawork, script etc.

How reliable were the sources?
As all the films were popular and had won awards, my sources were very reliable, as they each individually demonstrated the skills I wanted to learn effectively.

Do your questionnaires / surveys / Interviews need adapting / questions need tweaking (Evidence)


Do you need to amend your plans? Discuss and evidence the updates.
