The point of focus is the tree and the music note around it. It has a deeper meaning/message with in it that I tried to show. The tree shows life,nature and the music notes wrapped around the tree is supposed to show that reggae is life and nature for jamaicans. The background colour is important because it suggests to us what kind of poster it will be, I used the colours green,red and yellow for the background because these are the main colours of reggae. The top half of the poster is the sky with Bob Marley faded in it and clouds with three little birds. This is has a deep meaning as well because in a famous song by Bob Marley he says "three little birds sat on his door step".

Evaluation

1. The aim of my chosen charity which is refuge was to show awareness that domestic violence can happen to anyone behind close doors and if you're a victim you should call in and report it to refuge and they will deal with it. I think my campaign did achieve it because at the end we said a speech telling them exactly what to do.

2.My original idea was i had a bigger cast/crew but that had to change because people drop out and i needed to find substitutes. Another thing that i had to change was that i was going to film the flashback scene in the mall but they said you are not allowed to film it full stop so i filmed at my house instead

3. I planned my short film well because the story did make sense. i made it so it happens inside a room which is a strength because it shows domestic violence happens behind closed doors. Also the script that i done was very help full and  followed it carefully as i was directing. a weakness of  the planning is that some things didn't go as plan because someone dropped out or rain.

4. A strength during the filming is we had good actors also another strength is we had enough camera mans to film different angles for us. a weakness is my house is small so there wasn't a lot of space to move around and get good angles and shots

The message of the film is that anyone can be a victim of domestic violence. It may seem happy on the outside but behind close doors its not. But if you are a victim or think/know someone who is one you should call refuge. The film does work well in raising awareness because my audience learned who to call in a domestic violence situation.

diary 5

This was the last day of my filming. the location was at my house so i could film wherever and whenever i wanted without permission. After the 1hr of filming i started to edit the film. I finished editing in a 1hr and i added transitions and music after. 

diary 4

Today i started to film the first half of the advert. i decided to split it into 2 days of filming. because people were busy. The only problem i faced is it started to pour down with rain so so we waited in the mall for 30mins and it stopped so we could record 

diary 3

day 3 i made a call sheet, risk assessment and recce. this is more of the technical side of things were i was thinking of where to film the video and what are the risks of filming around there. but i found 2 locations which was outside the ilford mall which is local to me and i knew a lot of teenagers go there so it make it more believable.

diary 2

I needed to do a script today. So i decided to create one as well as a cast list. my script had 6 scenes, one victim and one antagonist. The solution is the charity which ive planned to show at the end of the advert. Next i needed to plan what props/costumes/make up i will use so i made a chart/list

diary 1

I started of by planning my campaign. I decided to spread awareness for domestic violence. Next i looked for a charity that specializes in domestic violence to show my audience a solution. once i got my charity i started to plan my story using a storyboard.

Risk assessment

I am going to look at the risks of this campaign video.

I cant make the ad too violent with killing or blood. i am going to use make up and put a bruise on the victim's arm.

The scenes were the girl is slapped or punched is staged and not real hits. so she doesn't get hurt

The last scene i needed to clear the area for clothes or bags/chairs in the way because it was shot like an action scene with a lot of running
