Out of 2 units we get to choose which we follow through with. Professional Practice, which is where we either find our own work placement or take on a commission from a company, or Fictional Adaptation which is where we choose one of ten sonnets and we adapt that into a short film between 5-6 minutes long.
I chose to go with Fictional Adaptation. My reason for this is because I currently want to go into the camera department and down the rout of a Cinematographer, I found that some of the Professional Practice option that were given forward didn't give me as much creativity. However, Fictional Adaptation allows me to experiment with camera techniques and really test and develop my skills. This would also benefit my show reel better I feel.
Our lecturer Mike Rymer is taking this unit. We've been given the Sonnets and now need to read through them and decide which we want to adapt. All of which we have clearance to use and adapt.
