ADVANCED PORTFOLIO BRIEF for submission in 2023

Year 12 students: you have made your A2 blogs complete with PAGES using the Simple template. You have worked in class over the last two weeks starting research into the A2 Advanced Portfolio brief. All your production work will be on your blog, whilst all examination work will be on Google Classrooms and your laptops (not on your blog).

Advanced Portfolio brief

Option 2: film promotion package A promotion package for a new film, to include two trailers (major task), together with an official social media page for the film and a poster for the film (minor tasks).

As discussed, on your new A2 blogs, you will complete:

  • the analysis of the FILM TRAILERS. Add the hyperlink and an image. Ensure that you have followed CIE's bullet points. Pick out the key terms in colour, such as introduction of the central characters, or central conflict, to make it easy to see that you have dealt with each of the genre conventions. Post all this work on the PAGE entitled FILM TRAILERS. Work straight to this page rather than use a Word document and attempt to copy / paste.

  • the analysis of three FILM POSTERS using an appropriate format like this. Pick films that speak to you personally, ones that may be of the genre that you are interested in making trailers for.

  • make a start analysing SOCIAL MEDIA: how is it used to promote awareness of films, engage target audiences, create a buzz, sustain audience interest? 

  • make a start on the TEACHING TRAILERS research. Use last year's cohort to see how to present your research form this excellent FDA resource. Post this research on your main blog roll.
