Creating a symbol for Glyndwr TV

Because I couldn't make to London Industrial Visit I had an assignment to do. And I got together with Juliet to complete it. Juliet has made most of the effort to design it. Also i shared my ideas on design. We have both done researches. I did a lot of research on various tv channel symbols. Juliet has done the research on old Glyndwr Tv symbols.

Influence Boards

In this task we have been given to create an influence board of six different influences we got inspired.

500 Days of Summer

 My first influence board is on 500 days of Summer. The reason I have chosen this film because it has got a great story with great actors. There is a scene where parallel editing takes place. There is a split screen on the half the screen the actions of expectations can be seen. This scene was influence for my group to do our parallel  editing film.


Stanley Kubrick

Stanley Kubrick has a great influence on all my friends and on me as well. All work such as; essay and presentation was on him. The reason he influences me is the way he directs his films. If you don't know about him you will never be able to understand his films.


Annie Leibovitz

                               

When I first learned about Annie Leibovitz I was so excited learning more about her. I loved the way she worked with Rolling Stone. When someone watches her documentary film about her you can feel the positive and the hyper energy of taking photos. That's what it made me feel.


Nihat Odabasi

Nihat Odabasi is a Turkish fashion photographer . I fallow him on his social network sites. I like seeing his new works. He works with famous people in Turkey. On these social network sites he tells about how passionate to his job and how much he works with a big passion and that is the reason he is on my influence board.



Nuri Bilge Ceylan

Nuri Bilge Ceylan is a Turkish director and photographer. His first short film Koza (Cacoon) was screened in the 1995 at Cannes Film Festival. He recieved many awards with his debut feature Kasaba (Small Town) . His third feature Uzak (Distant) recieved many awards including the Grand Jury Prize and the best actor prize at Cannes, and was praised internationallu. He won the best director award in 2008 Cannes Film Festival for Uc Maymun (Three Monkeys). I think his success is a big pride for Turkey and the people who want be a director.

Surf Photography

Surfing is my biggest hobby ever. Having the great feeling of being on the waves is not very explainable but some of the great photographers can show us how amazing the surfing is. I really wished to do some surfing photography also filming as well. I am looking forward May to go to surfing and get some good shots. Also on my commercial storyboard surf moves were my influence to draw it.

Notes to guide the future

Audience research

Select your project for the right reasons, not because it fits local sources of finance

Remember that the screen play is the most important element in the package-films are about stories.

Build up relationships sales agents, bankers,lawyers

Corner store strategy look in the financial sources

Don't try to run before you can walk, develop fully

Know the value of your project in the market place ( budget the project then find out what perceived value is, look at similar projects looking at finance plan )

Make it for less than it's value

Know when to give up

Remember the last 10
