These are our screen shots of our editing proses  

As a collective, the team all decided to draw a logo each on a piece of paper. The logos were so contrasting that the collective could not decide on a specific logo that had been suggested by one of the members. In that case, it was taken upon the editor to combine all of the ideas into 3 different logos that could then be analysed and evaluated. The 3 different logos that have been shortlisted have been explained and critically analysed in order to form a justified result. Logo 1: One positive aspect of this logo was that it was easy to create and anything that was difficult to do, could be resolved by online help guides – all of the images/text could be inserted and edited simply. This is a positive aspect because it was  not rushed and not a lot of time was spent creating it. This meant that more time could be focussed on filming/editing etc. Also, the logo also includes all of the relevant information needed in a logo. This is useful to other companies because they are not misl

Justification Characters: Katie Caitlin Katie Billham and Caitlin Richards have been chosen to represent the two characters in the story because they have free periods when the group requires the two characters to film the project. They were also selcted because the strong female characters represent that a role of a man does not require a man to cast - vice versa for a female.The two characters were also post GCSE drama students and free when the filming process takes place. A large selection of background characters have also been included in this production. This is in the best interest of the audience so that the scene looks authentic and realistic.This would also set an appropriate atmosphere on the scene as the typical library is quiet, controlled and calm. Settings: Library Library (Angle A Library (Angle B) The library was chosen as a setting because it was an ideal filming setting. This is because it has a large amount of space, conevient to f

Roles within the group: Tom - Background Character/Co-Editor Ben - Producer/Camera Man Raygen - Editor Bethany - Director Brief Plot/Narrative: Caitlin is superstitious and wants to spread awareness.  Caitlin sits Katie down and tries to convince Caitlin that superstitions are real.  Katie denys the whole theory. Bad things start happening to Katie.  "I told you so! Reasons for Plot Choice: The audience can relate No derogatory or degrading terms are at risk of being used - family friendly Can be set anywhere - within reason. This makes the filming process easier and more manageable. There are a large range of superstitions.  Because of the prompt - the group is not limited to one specific subject/setting/scenario. The large range of opportinity does not limit creativity.  The prompt sets a boundary - but does not limit creativity.  Left to right: Ben (me), Tom, Raygen  and Bethany. 

What prompt was given? The question that our group was given was, "Are superstitions real?" The initial thought was the difficulty of contrasting from one superstition to another - smooth and effectively. However, with much planning and thought, it can be put together so that it runs smoothly and develops slowly but also maintains a constant pace. Top 2? The top two questions were "What is it actually like to be transgender?" and "Are superstitions real?" The group came to this top two - as a result of the combination of two groups first choice. The group then mutually agreed that the question involving superstitions would be more ideal - as then the LGBT+ focussed motive can then be reserved for coursework. This is so that more time can be focussed on filming as opposed to finding actors and actresses that are comfortable to play an ally or a member of the community - as well as the bully.
