This week Chris created a Treatment for our film production. Generally speaking, a film's treatment is similar to that of an overview or synopsis of the film idea. It usually includes all the important conceptual elements, structured in 3-5 acts, each with a beginning, middle and end. When you submit your script, your treatment will often be the first document to be glanced over.
I researched into different socio economic groups and was able to understand the difference between each group and how we would target a specific group. The groups that our target audience could fall into are:
A- Higher managerial, administrative, professional e.g. Chief executive, senior civil servant, surgeon
B- Intermediate managerial, administrative, professional e.g. bank manager, teacher
C1-Supervisory, clerical, junior managerial e.g. shop floor supervisor, bank clerk, sales person
C2-Skilled manual workers e.g. electrician, carpenter
D-Semi-skilled and unskilled manual workers e.g. assembly line worker, refuse collector, messenger
E -Casual labourers, pensioners, unemployed e.g. pensoiners without private pensions and anyone living on basic benefits
Syed researched into the British Board of Film Classification. The BBFC is an independent, self-financing and not-for-profit media content regulator. They operate transparent, consistent and trusted co-regulatory and self-regulatory classification and labelling systems in the UK.
They aim to protect:
· -The public, and especially children, from content which might raise harm risks.
· Empower the public, especially parents, to make informed viewing choices.
· Recognise and respect adult freedom of choice within the law.
· Respond to and reflect changing social attitudes towards media content through proactive public consultation and research.
· Provide a cost-effective, efficient classification service within our statutory remit.
· Work in partnership with the industry to develop innovative service models to provide content advice which support emerging media delivery systems.
· Provide an effective service to enforcement agencies.
This vital research would allow our group to make the appropriate decision on what category our film production will fit from: U, PG, 12, 12A, 15, 18 and R18.
Syed also created a Synopsis for our film production; this is summary of our film within 25 words. It will allow viewers to be able have foundation understanding of the film.
