We have completed a lot of our planning and research now for our final A2 project. There has been a bit of a difference between my planning in AS and in A2 as I have done a lot more at A2 in a shorter amount of time. When I was researching the genres of film I realised that I need to do more research this year as last year I didn’t feel I did enough and therefore didn’t exactly know the codes and conventions of the genre we were doing which is why the genre of our film changed quite a lot. Initially last year we were going to do a detective film but it turned out in the end to be a psychological thriller genre of film. In comparison this year we researched horror movies and I started to focus on horror films that have children as the main characters. We are fairly certain we are going to stick with that genre and not change it this year. This year we researched a specific type of horror film as last year our research was general and non-specific. This is why were unsure of how we could make a detective film.
Also this year we have had to research print products as well where as last year we did not have to do this even though it could have given us a better idea of who the audience was for the film we were making. Researching the magazine covers gave me an idea of how they are constructed so that they attract the appropriate attention of the audience .
