LO2 - Framework (P3,M2)

 

Value 

Example 

Pre-Production Marker/Check

Production Task Marker/Check

Post-Production Task Marker/Check

Honesty 

I will make sure that I am not copying any other original ideas from other idents.

I will look at idents from the past few years to ensure my idea stands out from the rest.

I will make sure that I use my resources to keep on track and stick to my original plan. 

If I have used any ideas/music from another owner I will credit them when I have my finished idents. 

Transparency

I will make sure that my idents have a simple message in order for it not to be taken in the wrong way.

I will look at the past idents from the channel to see what their overall message was. 

I will create 2 idents that send different messages that will benefit the channel. 

In the post-production stage I will ensure that I will add the BBC One logo before I launch the idents 

Privacy 

I will not mention the actors' names as they may not want to be identified. 

I will start to think about who I can use for my idents for specific scenes. 

I will talk to the actors and find out if they would like to be mentioned at the end of the idents or not. 

When I am making my final improvements on my idents, I will need to ensure that I add those who want their name mentioned and those that do not. 



Stakeholders

How are they involved in being responsible for pre-production?

How are they involved in being responsible in production?

How are they involved in being responsible for audience feedback?

How are they involved in being responsible in post-production?

Audience

In this stage I will need to look at what my target audience is when creating the two idents. This will allow me to find out what interests they may have so that I can put them in my idents to make them more appealing. 

N/A

At this stage, I will need to ensure that before I release the final draft, I will need to communicate with the audience to get feedback. This will allow me to make changes if needed. 

This is the final stage and I would have made amendments to the ident from the feedback I collected. I will need to see the reaction of the audience with the final ident.

Technician

Before I start to film my ident I will need to speak to the technician to see if I can use the equipment for specific days of filming. 

At this stage I will need to work with the technician to film my idents and would need his assistance with it. An example of this is by making sure I have the right equipment to film the idents. 

N/A

N/A

Teacher

I will discuss my initial ideas with my teacher, who will help me improve and provide feedback where necessary. 

As well as filming my idents, my teacher will help and tell me what else I can do when I am in the production stage. 

As I am going to collect my audience feedback, my teacher will go through the work that I have done and provide me with feedback. 

After I have published my idents, my teacher will tell me what else I will need to do before I finish this project. 

Competitors 

I will need to research my competitors and find out what I can do to stand out.

N/A

N/A

I will be publishing this on the channels and I will have to see what the competitors reaction is.

LO2 - Legal, Moral and Ethical Issues (P3, M2)

When creating media products, there are multiple issues that I will need to consider. These are:

  • Legal issues - When I am planning and creating my idents, I will need to look at a variety of regulations that could impact the media product. 
  • Moral and Ethical issues - Moral issues are when someone has their own personal perspective. Whereas ethical issues are when I need to take into account the values and morals of the society.

When I am filming my idents, I will need to consider the following: 

Ident 1

  • Legal issues - When I am in the production stage of the ident, I will need to look at the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. The reason for this is that I when filming my idents, I need to ensure that I don't copy scenes that have been used without permission of the other channels. 
  • Moral and Ethical issues - When I am filming my ident, I may need to consider what genders are in them. This is to ensure that I don't offend anyone and do what is ethically correct.  

Ident 2

  • Legal issues - When I am in the production stage of the ident, I will need to look at the Freedom of Information Act. The reason for this is that I when filming my idents, I will need to ask people for permission to film. This means that I will need to be open about the filming of my idents and tell them information about it.  
  • Moral and Ethical issues - When I am filming my ident, I may need to consider what music I am using. This is to ensure that I don't ethically offend the audiences once the ident is launched. 
Ofcom.

Ofcom is responsible for regulating television for the UK. Ofcom guidelines consider the suitability of the content of TV programmes to limit harm to audiences. For example, movies and certain idents may not be shown due to the content that is used and may not be suitable for younger audiences. 

There are a few aspects of Ofcom that might impact both of my idents. Some of these aspects are:

  • Misinterpretation 
  • Appropriateness 
  • Protecting the Under-Eighteens: Observing the watershed on television and music videos

Constraint 

Summarise the constraint. 

Weakness - how might your work be an issue.

Action points - Skills, logistics, changes to the idea.

Ofcom code of practice - Misinterpretation 

Misinterpretation is when the audience is being shown specific content that is not matching to the actual channel. 

In my idents, I might show the key locations of London which could indicate that my idents are representing that the channel is about London when it is about showing multiple aspects of BBC One. 

To ensure that this message is not misinterpreted, I will add a voiceover to my idents. This will then ensure that there is a clear idea for the audience to understand and avoid the misinterpretation of my idents. 

Ofcom code of practice - Appropriateness 

Appropriateness is ensuring that my idents are sensible to present on TV. 

In my idents I will be filming students from school and children playing football. This needs to be appropriate as the actors may wear clothes that are not appropriate for the channel. 

To ensure that the idents are sensible I will need to ensure that the actors are wearing the appropriate clothing to prevent the reputation of BBC One from being damaged. 

Ofcom code of practice - Protecting the Under-Eighteens: Observing the watershed on television and music videos 

Protecting the Under-Eighteens: Observing the watershed on television and music videos is ensuring that the content is protected for below eighteen.

In my idents, I will be filming students and actors. In some scenes of the idents, they may be speaking. This means that they may say the wrong thing that will make the audience under eighteen unprotected. 

One way to ensure that this does not occur is that I will need to ensure that I put together a script to ensure that I control what the actors are saying. This means that the below the eighteen audience will be protected. 

Copyright (requirement, owner, clearance, cost) 

Copyright is when I am using a piece of work that is not mine. 

In my idents, I may use some of the music from BBC One and YouTube.

In order that I don’t get copyrighted, I will need to ask for permission to use the tracks/content. 

Royalties 

This is where payments are being sent to the original owner due to the use of their music. 

In my idents I may have to pay the owner if I use their music. 

In order for me to mitigate this problem I will need to ensure that I negotiate with the owner and come up with a small percentage which I will pay them. 

Misrepresentation

This is when the channel is being presented one way and the ident is showing another way.

In my idents, it might show elements that might not be representing the BBC One channel. 

To ensure that this message is not misrepresented I will need to ensure that I show the ident to the audience and collect feedback before it has released.
