Coursework Options


Short Film
Defined as no longer than 40 minutes in running time, usually between one to fifteen minutes. Apart from running times there are no precise criteria or characteristics that apply to short film.

Teaser Trailers
Between 30 to 60 seconds in length and ususally contain little or no footage from the actual film. A good example is the teaser trailer of the remake of A Nightmare On Elm Street (Micheal Bay 2010) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBDXYZDu5zs
From looking at both short films and teaser trailers I decided to base my coursework on teaser trailers as i felt i had more direction and ideas in this genre and was generally more interested in it. I felt I had more previous knowlege of the feature film genre than the short film and prefered the print based tasks associated with the trailer task.


I the ancillary tasks related to the teaser trailer, rather than the short film tasks as I am interested in developing skills in photoshop.
