New Project Brief.

I have been given a new brief which is based around the Speeches from different eras that are from very important people. 

In this section i will briefly talk about what i have to achieve and the outcomes from this.

Learning Outcomes for the Assessment:
 
-Produce a number of storyboards that visually illustrate their chosen narratives
-Produce documented evidence of supporting research and idea generation in sketchbook/project folder format. 
-Produce time based works that demonstrate an understanding of the prescribed areas.

BBC channels are increasingly cross promoting their programme content and for this assignment you will be producing a TV trailer for a series of radio programmes on Radio 4 called ‘Speeches’, about a selection of great speeches of the 20^th Century. 

Radio 4 will be running this series of programmes, each focusing on an individual speech from the following list:-

·       Franklin D Roosevelt:  The only thing we have to fear is fear itself

·       Winston Churchill:  We shall fight them on the beaches

·       Harold Macmillan: The wind of change

·       Nelson Mandela: An ideal for which I’m prepared to die

·       Jawahharal Nahru: A tryst with destiny

·       John F Kennedy: Ask not what your country can do for you

·       Martin Luther King: I have a dream

·       Margaret Thatcher: The lady’s not for turning

·       Earl Spencer: The most hunted person of the modern age

The TV trailers will act as ‘teasers’ about the speeches by creating short films which use a combination of an excerpt of the speech accompanied by atmospheric, original footage and text graphics.  These films need to be 1 minute long (with a 5 second leeway in each direction).  You are not searching for original footage of the speech being delivered, and nor are you trying to film literal interpretations of what is being said, but rather you will devise, shoot edit and post produce a sequence of shots which add visual accompaniment to the words being spoken. This film will also feature text elements which are used to highlight words being spoken in the speech.  You can also use music and/or sound effects in your film.
