Year 13 - Evaluation
Your evaluation should assess both the processes of your project and the project itself. You should split it into sections - Pre-production, production, post-production and evaluation of the video.
Pre-production - What were the different stages of your pre-production. You must explain what you did, why you did it. Then you need to assess the effectiveness or how successful those decisions were.
Example -
In this evaluation I am going to discuss and analyse my production project. My task was to work in a group to produce a music video. We had to undertake all of the stages of production that a real music video producer would in the industry, we began with research and planning for the production, then we had a production period and finally we completed our post-production. Also like the real industry we had to work to a deadline and display professional standards of working practices.
Research
The first part of our project was to independently research and analyse music video conventions and techniques. This allowed me to fully understand not only the conventions and techniques used in music videos but also the effect these have on the audience. ETC
Pre-production
There are many stages of pre-production such as; pitching, storyboarding, scripting, location checks and risk assessments. ETC
You now need to go through each stage of your pre-production, explain what you did, any problems you faced and how you overcame them. Why you made the decisions you did and how effective or successful you think it was.
Production
As above, go through each stage of your production and explain what you did, why, problems you overcame, how successful these were.
Post-production
As above, go through each stage of your pose-production and explain what you did, why problems you overcame and how successful these were.

Year 12, BTEC, Short Film Production Project
Unit 1: Pre-preproduction Techniques
Unit 16: Film & Video Editing Techniques
Unit 22: Single Camera Techniques
Last lesson we started our report which will help you with all the theories of media that you will use in order to produce amazing short films. The report will consist of three very distinct sections, each one covering the first Assessment Objective from the 3 units we are assessing through this project;
Unit 1, AO1: Understand the pre-production requirements for a short film
Unit 16, AO1: Understand the development and principles of editing
UNit 22, AO1: Understand the features of a single camera production
The slides below are instructions and guidance for writing your introduction for this report (which you should have finished last lesson!!).
In today's lesson we are going to begin the research in order to write the first section of your report which will cover Unit 1, AO1: Understand the pre-production requirements for a short film.
The slides below are from the lesson today - you will need to use these to help you begin your research and start writing this section of your report.
