LO4 Proposal for certification classification

From reviewing our feedback from the focus group we have decided to give out short film the BBFC rating of a U. This is because over half of the focus group decided a U was appropriate. Also the short film is suitable for all audiences because it contains nothing offensive.

LO4 Evidence of screening the film and responses

We showed our short film documentary to a focus group with a survey. Our focus group had a range of different people from age to gender. This enabled us to get different responses and see varied opinions from people. Our focus group contained a 17 year old boy, a 18 year old girl, a 20 year old boy, a 47 year old woman and a 52 year old woman. This is their different responses.

LO3 Offline edit

There are no major issues in this short film although you can see the camera in the shot of the electric wall. This can be changed by turing the brightness down so it less noticeable. Some of the clips have a slight rock but it is not that noticeable, so they are still useable. There also needs to be a transition between clips to make it more smooth and subtile. The audio sound clear and good so it will not need changing and the background music is quiet enough. The audio with interview with Brian is not synced so that needs to be changes. Also there needs to be some text that explains who he is so the audience will know. The title sequence also needs to be added to explain what the documentary is about and where it is focused. There also needs to be credits at the end to show who contributed what.  Overall I feel the offline edit is good and with some editing techniques it will be a successful documentary.

LO1 Script

Sheffield is one of Britain's largest cities, with a massive population of over one and a half million. It saw major growth in the 20th century due to steel manufacturing into what we know today. As a result of all this history and all the attractions that the city has, every year it is visited by hundreds of thousands of tourists.

While Sheffield may not be England’s capital city, it has museums that are rich with history from both the local area and all around the world. The most notable of these museums is Weston Park. In this documentary we will be showing you around the museum and how important a role it plays in Sheffield.

Weston Park museum has been around since 1875, it’s never had a specific theme to the exhibits that are inside. Choosing instead to feature a broad range of eras. Throughout its time it has covered everything from art, history and science. In 2003 they received a full refurbishment and make-over worth £17.3 million, this allowed them to expand their building and add yet more to their already amazing display of history.

This museum belongs to a collective group of museums in Sheffield in order for these to remain funded and in operation they receive money from various organisations from in and around Yorkshire. They also rely on money in the form of donations from visitors.

Let's take a look inside. As you walk in the museum you really get a feel for the contrasting history and modern art.

This is the ‘What on earth’ exhibition. In 2014 this Exhibit received a makeover to further expand what they showcase here. This part of the exhibition showcases what animals used to live in this part of the world since the earth’s creation not only are visitors met with the amazing visual display that has been constructed here there are also interactive parts of the exhibit for people to get involved with. This part of the exhibit is called ‘Close to Home’ It focuses on the animals that live in the local area, teaching people all about what makes up the ecosystem of Sheffield. Also here you can design your own creatures and see how they would fair in the wild, this part of the museum helps with engaging with the visitors and makes for a memorable experience.

Although this museum is hugely popular to people outside of Sheffield it remains true to the area it has been built in. This part of the museum was built to tell the story of Sheffield from the perspective of the residents. This exhibit really highlights the history of the surrounding area. This exhibit gives us an insight into how Sheffield was founded, stone carvings from ancient times are displayed here as well as the type of resources the area has and how this has helped Sheffield turn into what it is today.

As you’d expect Sheffield's largest museum attracts loads of visitors every week, tourists come from out of the area to experience all that Sheffield has to offer. Residents of the area come here regularly, to see the new exhibitions or even just to donate to the upkeep of the museum and the local area.

Arctic World was created as a result of visitors voting their favourite object in the museum prior to the refurbishment, the object that won was Snowy the museums polar bear who is the centerpiece of the exhibition. It educates visitors on the different animals that live in the arctic and the clothes that are worn by the natives from there. There are also interactive elements, where you can build an igloo or watch videos to gain even more information. The exhibition also teaches you about some of the animals that live in the sea and how far down they live.

Museums play an important role in getting people involved with history, Weston Park in particular helps people get involved with local history and plays a huge role in teaching people about the past.

The gallery illustrates the diversity of Sheffield’s cultural heritage, showcasing objects that have travelled many thousands of miles to the region. The  exhibits on display have been developed by a group of young people who, along with local communities, have worked with Museums Sheffield to share the stories of these objects and look at how they found their way into the city’s collections. In 2012 this area went under a transformation, to add a larger area to display more for visitors.

Weston Park is vital to Sheffield, It holds information about the history of the area and allows the community to work together to celebrate Sheffield's past and how far it has come.
