You should now have completed a second draft of your Film Poster which incorporates the annotations I made on the first draft. I will give you further written feedback on this provided you print the poster in colour and give me a copy. You will then have until February 8 2011 to do any final tweaking of the design.
Most of you could get level 4 for your design ... but won't unless you sort out your anchorage and layout/size issues. You need this feedback!
You also need to check and update your blog if necessary. All Research and Planning should be completed by December 14.
The research/planning and construction of the Film Review Page will follow the same format as for the poster. All the research should be completed this term and a significant part of the planning.
All you should need to do next term is write the text of your review in response to your completed film and insert it into the design you have already planned. We will deconstruct existing reviews and view films/draft text together in class in January.
Blog Post One : a survey/overview of at least 3 relevant magazine contexts for your Film Review Page, thinking carefully about issues of audience and coverage/content and evaluating the relative suitability of existing contexts for your film review page.
Blog Post Two : a detailed deconstruction of a specific and relevant Film Review Page, paying careful attention to design codes and conventions and how these might influence your creative choices.
Blog Post Three : a detailed plan of your page, (for the time being using a mock up font like dingbats for the review text) which comments on your intentions and links your creative choices to existing models.
