Ancillary task 2


Alfie & the snake poster




This is my poster for our short film, I created it using Microsoft Word 2011. I felt it would be best to keep it simple due to the target audience. The fact the short film is aimed at children also led me to choose a childish font for the poster.

The website I used to upload the document however changed the font so i will therefore print screen my document and upload that as well.

Today in media I have been looking for websites that will allow me to download soundclips and samples for our media production. So far I have found a website called sound dogs (http://www.sounddogs.com/)
This website appears to be very useful with a wide range of sounds, it appears however that I will have to purchase all the mp3s, which could prove costly.

Equilibruim

This is how we will use Equilibruim throughout the short film:

1. Equilibrium - Alfie gets home
2. Disequilibrium - Parents aren't there
3. Makes himself at home - turns on telly - 'Anaconda' is playing
4. Parents come home - equilibrium should be ok, but they have a new pet snake
5. Sleeps and dreams a scary dream of his pet snake chasing him
6. Wake up and holds his pet snake first time. And feels safe - equilibrium is restored. character has gone on a journey that will enrich his life.
