Cpyright Clearance


Copyright clearance enables you to keep any copyright materials you intend on using. It is allowed to be used for educational purposes such as making a video with music that is copyrighted for a school project. For example, to source you will need permission from the location owner to shoot there. I will be sourcing sounds from websites such as freesound.org etc.  Also, there would need to be a release form signed by all the actors in order to get permission to use the footage you have of them. 


Asset required
Why do I need this asset (refer to requirements of the brief)
How will I create or source this asset?
What elements do I need to consider when producing or selecting this asset? (Production skills- graphics, lighting, photography, editing etc.…)
When do I need this asset?
Location- Outside bank using cash machine and café.
When recording the scenes I will need to use a public space in order to complete the video about identity theft.
To source this will need permission from the location owner to shoot there.
The elements I need to consider when filming will be camera angles so that what being shown on camera is clear. Dark lighting will be needed to present the antagonist which will represent the character.
Suitable day 15th January.
Actors- 2 female characters.
I chose to have two female characters as I want my advert to stand out from the other identity theft videos out there as they mostly use men actors. By using an antagonist in the video will give it more realism and show how identity theft works.
I will be asking people I know to fill the actor’s positions but will have to create a release form for them to sign.
The elements I need to consider when filming will be camera angles so that what being shown on camera is clear. Dark lighting will be needed to present the antagonist which will represent the character.
Suitable day 15th January.
Props- Credit card, cash machine, purse.
The most important prop in the video would be the credit card as it is the item in the video which is stolen.


I will be using my own props for the video.
I will need to ensure the props are clearly visible throughout the video using editing to highlight them.
Suitable day 15th January.
Music and SFX
By using music I will be able to create suspense throughout making it clear what will happen. SFX sound I will include will be footsteps as this will make it clear when the antagonist is coming.
I will be sourcing these sounds from websites such as freesound.org etc..

Suitable 16th January.

Question 3:
With reference to the article and your own research, how has the topic impacted on consumption in your specific media sector? 

 The specific media sector that I looked at was Television which meant for my research I was to look further into where children are consuming TV. 

From the research I have gathered, it was brought to my attention that children prefer using their smartphones and tablets rather than watching television as you are now able to access TV apps on these devices making it easier to watch shows on the go. This supports the conclusions drawn in the article as they implied that smartphone and tablet apps have decreased TV users.

 Also, I saw a pattern throughout my secondary research showing me that TV shows tend to be watched on catch up rather than on live TV, which can be due to having catch up shows on apps for smartphones and tablets’ such as; BBC I player, ITV hub and Netflix or even watching the content on YouTube
.
TV viewings have decreased over the years and catch up TV has been increasing due to other devices being more important to them as they would rather go on their smartphones and use social media to interact with other rather than sit and watch a show. This is connects to the research I have found from the conclusions drawn in the 2016 OFCOM article.

I also found that children aged 8 to 15 prefer to use YouTube over television which could be due to the fact that YouTube is broad and can act as a social media as well as another option for watching content. This causes an impact on production as it shows they would rather use other social media platforms and Television will no longer have a high target audience.

HYPOTHESIS

Parental restrictions on children's media consumption is less regulated due to children having more access to technology outside of their homes e.g. social media on mobile devices.
