MC 105 Video Production Reminders for Final Requirements and Awards Night

Here are some guidelines for your Short Film submission and Awards Night:

1. The official deadline of your short films are on March 18, 2017 at 6pm. One of you from the group will have to personally submit it to me in the Ebay.

2. Create an effective title/title image incorporated in your film. We will screenshot that so you don't have to create a poster.

3. The length of time for your films should be up to 10 minutes only. Follow the time limit set or else you will be disqualified for the best picture award.

4. Do not forget your credits.

5. All groups are required to submit an evaluation of the roles of each group member with a rating from the group's leader (use the 1-10 scale). Email the said evaluation on or before March 19, 2017. No evaluation,  no grade. I hate free riders. Deadlines are deadly.

6. Use .mp4 as file format and 720p for the resolution. I will not accept files that are too big just because you didn't check the resolution when you exported your file. Remember, I would know if you don't follow instructions.

7. Subtitles are not required.

8. The showing of the said short films will be in Cinematheque Davao on March 20, 2017 at 4:00 pm. The even is entitled, "Pelikulang Atenista Film Festival." I will start the event ON TIME.

9. The awards night will be on March 23, 2017 at the ADDU JHS Mini Theater. The Assembly time will be at 4:00 pm and the awarding will start at 5:00pm. The event is entitled, "Parangal para sa mga Pelikulang Atenista."

10. Deadline for payment for the said events will be on Saturday, March 20, 2017, during your film submission.

11. Watch out for more updates of the said events in Twitter or here in my blog.

• The predominant lighting used in the film and how it affects the mood of each scene.
• The production design and how it describes the theme.
• The camera work or cinematography - what camera angles, shots and movements were predominantly used in the movie that made it effective.

2. Talk about the significance of the work of the people behind the scenes and how they were able to help the actors in portraying their roles effectively. Identify flaws also if you see any.
