Decision Making
In order to begin component 3 I first had to decide which of the 4 briefs i would use. All briefs will provide students the ability to showcase their production skills however some some are quite limiting yet make up for it by providing students different areas to excel at.
Music Promotion Package - The music promotion package would allow to the use a wide variety of different camera shots and techniques dependent on the music that is chosen. It would also allows students to display skills in sound editing in order to sync together the music with what is happening in the video. However, In a school it may be difficult to find student/s who are able to lip sync the song as well as be comfortable doing potentially unnatural/unrealistic actions as music videos tend to be quite abstract.
Film Promotion Package - The film promotion package requires more planning in relation to the amount you are filming, this is because you must plan an entire feature film yet condense it into a few minutes.
Documentary Package - The documentary package is quite limiting in terms of creativity as there isn’t a variety of shots that I would be able to do. Furthermore, It would take a lot of time in order to get original footage for the documentary. However, in terms of editing the documentary it would be simpler when compared to the other packages.

Short Film Package - The short film package allows me to be creative as I am able to create an original story, that comes to an end unlike the film package. However, creating a refined story that conforms to Todorov’s theory of equilibrium and to complete it in the 5 minutes.
FINAL CHOICE
In the end I have chosen the Short Film Package. This is because I believe it to be the package that allows me to display the widest range of camera techniques as well as explore an area of film making that I have not done before. Finally I think that through this package I will be able to bring across a story/final product that I can be most proud of.
