BFI Film Academy - 100 Odd Years of Cinema

From January to March, I was part of the BFI Film Academy - The Film Business, at the Tyneside Cinema in Newcastle.

I had a wonderful time there, and over the weeks, we created this film reel. We made these through the 'swede-a-classic' style. So, with little to no budget on our hands, we created what we could in the shortest time possible.

Here's the results.

Audience Response

I filmed an an audience response video and asked the audience some set questions that I recently posted on the blog (that I will repost at the bottom of this post).

I asked two audience members alone, one group of two and a group of three in order to get ranged responses. I also asked a range of males and females to get a wide and broad response.

I provided each group/individual with a set of sheets:
- The cover.
- The contents page.
- The feature article.

I provided these sheets in order for the audience to give a response straight from seeing the magazine up close, as if they were reading the magazine after purchase, rather than making them answer the questions from memory, which wouldn't have been fair on them, and would have ruined the fairness of my answers.
