This is the blog for KBA Media Studies students starting their AS course in September 2010. Monday, October 18, 2010. Your first task before beginning the pre-production stage of your film is to pitch an idea. Working in your groups you need to come up with the pitch for a teen horror film. This should include a working title and brief details about the storyline of the film. You will need to pitch your idea to the Chief Executive Officer of Henton Horror Films - that's me - on Monday 1st November.

This is the blog for KBA Media Studies students starting their AS course in September 2010. Thursday, September 16, 2010. Planning Your Preliminary Task.
