PRELIMINARY EXERCISE


In today's lesson we started our coursework which involved creating a front cover and contents page for a school we had to create plans for our front cover
Title
-firstly we had to choose a title for the school  magazine i choose to use alliteration because i though it was quite catchy and decided on the title 'the star school' or 'the star pupil' i haven't decided which title i would like to use yet.
Details of the mis-en-scene
for my mis-en-scene i wanted one 6th former working i haven't decided on what type of camera shot i would like to use yet but i think the over the shoulder shot is the best shot when taking a picture of someone working.
However i also like the idea of having a younger year student playing in the playground as this can connote the fun you can have in the school i will use a long shot showing the head to the toe.
Cover lines for the front cover of your magazine
"new school menu!"
"BIG DANCE"
"Barcelona year 12 trip"
"outstanding GCSE results!"
"tune in for all new ice factor!"
"BIG SING"
" sneak preview of Beauty and the BEAST"
i think these cover lines are interesting and will catch the targets audiences eye.

CAMERA ANGLES

over the past few lessons we have been looking at  different camera angles and in Monday's lesson we had to get into groups of three and take a camera around school and take a variety of different shots
