This evaluation must be done on either Powerpoint or Keynote. The deadline for this is the end of the first lesson back after Easter.
The reason why we are giving you the first lesson back as well as the holidays is so you can take screenshots of the relevant PS, FC and Garageband documents and to use Keynote or Powerpoint if you don't have access at home.
THIS DOES MEAN THAT YOU SHOULD COME TO THE FIRST LESSON WITH EVERYTHING WRITTEN SO IT CAN BE ILLUSTRATED AND UPLOADED TO THE APPROPRIATE SOFTWARE IF NEEDED.
There's only 5 bits to this evaluation, so try to give full and frank answers, illustrate with the relevant imagery and use appropriate terminology.
1) Comparison with real media products
Select at nine key frames of your final product that will allow you talk about some of following aspects of production - narrative, costume, construction of characters, props, location, effects, credits (fonts, titles of production, order of credits), framing of characters, type of action shown (action/drama/suspense).
Explain the creative decisions behind the construction of these aspects with EXPLICIT reference to existing media product and your influences.
IN OTHER WORDS HOW DOES YOUR FINAL PRODUCT COMPARE TO EXISTING TV CREDITS OPENINGS: talk about which conventions you used, which you developed, what were you key influences etc.
When writing - use the correct terminology in terms of mise-en scene, camerawork, sound and editing. See this blog for some help with terminology.
2) How did you find the construction process
Looking back at your planning and your process and write an honest account of following
Which aspect did you find the most enjoyable?

Explain which technologies you used, what you learned from using them on this project and how your skills developed.
Make reference to key techniques used in your production e.g. keyframing, colour correction, use of filters, foley sound, creating text in Photoshop etc.
5) Quality of final product
Look back at the brief for the task, the details of your expected target audience - how suitable do you think your product is?
Evaluate your product in terms of its technical strengths and weakness and how appropriate it is in terms of the task and target audience?
