Having very little experience with PhotoShop, so gaining help through a practical in class workshop was well appreciated. Since several workshops I am now able to strip the colour away from an existing film poster and paint colour with the use of masks and layers.
My first piece of PhotoShop was created along the brief of creating a species made from natural resources e.g leaves, twigs, mushrooms. I not only enlarged and decreased the size of each component, but I also used colour to contrast and add personality.

Welcome To My A2 Media Blog
For my A2 course, I will be creating and exhibiting a short film from a chosen genre of choice. On this blog I will be displaying my research and planning that will teach me the ways of creating an effective short film.
What is a short film?
According to the Academy of Motion Pictures (otherwise known to non-film buffs as the the Oscars) a short film is a motion picture that has a running time of 40 mintues or less; including credits.
The majority of people make short films because they neither have access to good equipment nor the correct experience. This mirrors how it was during the early days of cinema.
In the early 1920s, films by Charlie Chaplin, Laurel and Hardy, animations by Max Fleisher and Walt Disney; proved very popular and often attracted bigger audiences than the features they accompanied.
