Proposal
1
Centre Name and Number:
York College 48357
Student Name and Number: Harry Borwell 336973
Project proposal title and date: Thoughtless
Main area of activity: Film
Rationale:
I learnt how to use premiere pro to make a radio drama and music video and add special effects
like slow motion and explosions. I learnt how to set up a camera, where to position it to get a good
shot, and how to use it over the shoulder, film and edit. I will use these skills to make the trailer
really effective. I want to learn how to use the boom. The sound quality in my music video wasn’t
great. Using the boom will make the sound quality better. I will ask someone in make-up to do the
casts make up so when I do close ups the camera won’t be so harsh.
The music video made me learn new skills which I have improved on, which will have a direct
impact on the audience for my Trailer.
Project Concept:
I’m making a trailer for a new TV Comedy.
Plot: A family (two brothers, mum and dad). One son (Lee) is training to become a comedian. He
practices one of his acts, but it goes horribly wrong. He tries fixing it, but the situation gets worse.
Once the issue is fixed just in time, he tries practicing it again. What will happen next?
The purpose of the trailer is to advertise and entertain the audience.
I’m going to research different comedy shows (American and British), and I will look at the
storylines and look at the characters personalities. I will do this by watching clips on YouTube. This
will help me to create my characters and a good plot for my ‘new show’. I’m going to look at the
sets of each comedy I research and annotate them, looking at the equipment, props, composition
etc.
I’m going to watch comedy show trailers on YouTube and look at the props, costume, style/time it
looks like it’s set in etc.
For my primary research, I’m going to make a survey asking people what comedy shows they like
(e.g The Big Bang Theory), what do they like to see in comedy (e.g slapstick), how do they watch
comedy shows (do they stream or do they watch when it’s being broadcast), and what platform do
they watch on (amazon prime, ITV Hub). This will help so I can make the trailer more suitable for
the audience’s needs.
For my practical research I’m going to watch tutorials on YouTube about how add special effects in
premiere pro (e.g Adjusting brightness, adding explosions). I’m going to do experiments of scenes
which I will consider putting in the trailer. This will help so I can see what I’m good at, what I need
to work on, and I can learn new skills before making the real thing which will help to make the
trailer appeal to the audience and make it effective.

How will the project be evaluated and reviewed?
I will look at all the work I’ve done and look at the strengths and weaknesses of each. I will ask
other people for feedback on my video, seeing what they like and don’t like and what could be
improved.
