Moving Pictures: Getting Started: Group Work

You are asked to produce either: a) a thirty to sixty-second sting to advertise a forthcoming documentary programme about your chosen author’s life and works. b) between 3 and 6 ten-second animated stings promoting prominent literary work/s by your chosen author. This may be for application across a range of contexts: some examples might include: on-line promotion for a set of re-packaged books or plays, or an educational resource.  These outcomes should be conceptually driven and informed by your summer brief 3 research into the social / cultural / political background of your chosen author. Group and peer group crits will help you to explore and critically extend your ideas and themes for creative production. Stings are eye-catching and dynamic in nature and should effectively capture the essence of what they promote within a limited time.
