| Portfolio | 30 | 1~2~4~5 | Week 12 | , WORDS= 1500 words | You will produce a production portfolio. The portfolio should include the treatment for the pilot, along with any relevant pitching documents. A sizzle reel may also be included. These materials can be submitted as a group.In addition, each individual group member should submit the programme idea they originally proposed, along with the documentation related to their specific role throughout the pre-production, production, and post-production phases of the group project. This may involve performing various roles, such as editing inserts during pre-production or acting as the floor manager on the production day. It is essential to outline the specific responsibilities tied to your role and how you plan to fulfill them.You should thoroughly research your role, particularly as it pertains to the genre of studio entertainment. This research should be reflected in your documentation, which may include technical requirements, creative ideas (such as set design, casting, directing, or vision mixing), and organisational plans (like schedules, contributor lists, or contingency plans). |
| Learning Log | 30 | 1~2~3~4~5 | Exam Period | HOURS= 2000 words | This assignment will include an individual reflective log in which you will critically reflect on the progress of the project, your specific role(s) within the team, and the finished program. In this log, you are expected to assess your contributions to the project, evaluate the challenges and successes you encountered, and reflect on how your role evolved throughout the process. Additionally, you should offer insight into the overall development of the program, considering both the technical and creative aspects. This reflective log should demonstrate self-awareness and critical thinking, highlighting what you have learned and how it will inform your future work in similar projects. |
| Project - Practical | 40 | 1~2~3~4 | Exam Period | HOURS= 15 minutes | This is a practice-based group project, where both individual roles and the overall production are considered as you help produce a TV pilot. The pilot should incorporate multi-camera studio work alongside VT inserts, such as titles, stings, packages, and location reports, as necessary. The program must be properly credited according to the module and course guidelines.The project will be assessed on several key criteria, including the originality of the idea, which reflects the creativity and uniqueness of the concept, and the ambition of the project, considering its scale and aspirations. Attention to the genre and entertainment format is crucial, ensuring the production aligns with the agreed-upon guidelines set by the Module Leader. Technical competence will be evaluated based on the proficiency demonstrated in aspects such as camera work, sound, and editing, while production values and skills will be judged by the overall quality and professionalism of the execution. Organisational skills will be assessed by how well tasks, timelines, and resources are managed throughout the project.Furthermore, flair, imagination, and visual style will be important, as the project should showcase creativity and a strong visual aesthetic. The quality of the script will also play a key role in evaluation, with emphasis on its ability to support and enhance the overall production. Lastly, evidence of teamwork will be considered, with a focus on how effectively the group collaborates and communicates to achieve the project’s goals. These criteria will collectively determine the success of both individual contributions and the final production. |
