WEEKLY JOURNALS

This is where you think about your FMP learning journey and development.
Don’t simply describe what you did - consider what you have learnt and how this has benefitted
your project. What do you need to improve?

THIS IS JUST GUIDANCE THAT YOU NEED TO ADAPT TO YOUR OWN PROJECT. YOU HAVE CREATED YOUR
OWN PRODUCTION SCHEDULES AND YOUR WEEKLY BLOGS SHOULD REFELCT THAT.

THESE QUESTIONS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED IN THE WEEKS YOU COMPLETED THEM. DO NOT JUST SUBMIT THIS
FORM FILLED IN FOR YOUR WEEKLY BLOGS. THERE SHOULD BE 11 WEEKLY BLOG ENTRIES (INCLUDING
EASTER).

Week One - Context

CONTEXT

How did you find coming up
with an idea that challenged
you enough for your FMP?
I was watching a music video of a song I liked and at first I thought that I
would try and create a music video but then after watching the video
further I realised that there is a scene where they show 2 different types
of tattoos on their wrists and so I came up with the idea to have a post
apocalypse where they have 2 types of tattoos and they are at war.

How has writing a proposal It has helped because it means that I can complete the work easier by
helped you with finalising looking back at my proposal and seeing what I have planned. It also
your idea? helps because when I type things I tend to remember them better and
so it will be stuck in my head while completing the work.

How did the feedback help
you adapt your idea – what
did you change after
feedback?
Through looking at my feedback I have come to the conclusion that
people like my idea Firstly I will involve a darker meaning or undertone
to the story as this will make the narrative more interesting and will add
depth to the story. As people have said to me that the genre of the film
can sometimes end up being very dull if it isn’t executed properly

Are you on track for the Yes, I am on track for this week so far accept from the two things I had
week? If not, how far behind to complete at home
are you?

What work do you need to The only work I needed to complete outside of lesson was the
complete outside of lessons bibliography and the production schedule and that was because I
to stay on track? started the FMP a day late and so was slightly behind with the work but
after a couple hours at school I got it all done.
