Thesis Hand in

I took in account all of the feedback i got off my tutor Tracey Staunton over the past month and got a lot more references and more books to get more information into the subject i have been writing about.

With the hand in date tomorrow i feel i covered all area's my tutor has suggested and have added a lot more references and made sure all my Harvard referencing was done correctly.

I enjoyed writing this extended essay i feel i learned a lot of stuff to add towards my final film to ensure my composition is correct.

Thesis feedback

I had a one on with my tutor Tracey and we discussed my first thesis draft. Tracey seemed reasonably happy with my first draft at my essay, she gave me a few pointers to help direct my thesis in the right direction. Tracey suggested i read a lot more books and get more references towards my idea for my thesis.

I found a great author 'Peter Ward' who has multiple books based on compositionso i have decided to read a few of these books for influence and refences.

Composition in Storytelling

This is another video i found about Composition in film, in this video the author talks about composition in storytelling and how important composition is to the storyline in a film as a whole.
