Project proposal for my final project:
This entails what I intent to produce for my project, with a rationale, project concept, short pre-evaluation and a proposed bibliography, with a time plan to tell me what I need to be doing each week to keep on top of work.
SWOT Analysis:
Strengths:
Skills:
I feel confident using a super 8 camera and how one works given the outdated technology as I have used the format before, and how I can effectively make my mis-en scene look like the 70s using my primary and secondary research. My other skills will be useful in the post-production as i will collate scenes from the film and the DSLR on Premiere Pro.
Weaknesses:
Skills:
One weakness I might have is script writing or storyboarding as my project is difficult to articulate with visuals until I have a properly designed set.
Opportunity:
For my project, I have focused on props and set design, which will make sure I have no 'leaks' of this age such as phones or flat screen tv's and a microwave.
My progression unit earlier on in the year, focuses on what my strengths and weaknesses are in more detail:

Threats:
I may run out of film before I get to finish production which I will have to shoot digitally for those scenes.

Idea:
My Final project is about filming on super 8 and creating an atmosphere from the 1970s, where super 8 first became popular for people documenting their home life on film. This will create a nostalgic sense as it will look picturesque from when many were younger and might be representing a birthday party which will be a 'reel' that could be watched back. The duration will be 4-6 minutes, which I will use two films with different ISO settings, as some scenes will be interior and exterior, These films will most likely be 50D and 200T. Before shooting with super 8, I will make a digital trace copy if some scenes do not turn out the way I expected after processing, and will add overlays and visual effects to make it look like it was super 8. I will use mis-en scene to make sure my scenes look age-appropriate and to set dress it correctly.

I have extensively researched about super 8 before starting my final project, where I had to write an essay about a specialist study topic.
