Unit 2 FMP is the culmination of your second year and demonstrates all of the creativity, skill, concept and understanding you have gained over the past two years. You are expected to produce a body of coherent, sophisticated research that culminates in ideally a media product or a collection of work that shows off your technical ability, talent, vision and knowledge. You will need to evidence the development of your work by including relevant research & a reflective diary, a development of ideas and a selection of sophisticated problems and outcomes. 

​

These should be accompanied by thorough and on-going critical and contextual reflections and evaluation. You need to pick between three briefs set by UAL, each brief will need a level of interpretation and then deciding what type of media product you will make. Each brief has a specific theme with corresponding words and artists. The brief should be used as starting point to help develop your idea. Remember the words and phrases are there for your help and to give you a starting point, it doesn't need to be taken literal. 

 

Make sure you are working in a media area you enjoy, want to improve in and to potentially develop after Long Road. you will want to choose within the film & TV range including music videos, short films, documentaries and more. 

 

You must achieve a balance of your ambition, time constraints and resources to make sure you can achieve your project. Do not make it too big OR too small!

​

You have 11 WEEKS to complete your project and include evidence throughout research, pre production, production & post production. You will need to plan and divide your project into manageable timeframe, whilst utilising independent study time. ​​​​
