Last week Tuesday media lesson

In Tuesday's media lesson our teacher informed plus of the evaluation that we will have to do on our film and how we should attempt answer them because some things that we say can be frowned upon an example of this " every thriller has a chasing sequence" which shouldn't be said because no one has seen very thrilled to know that this statement is true. We were also given had outs which gave us an insight on how to start of the questions when answering them of we have trouble.

Last week Fridays lesson

Im last weeks lesson we learnt about why films are released in the cinema and how they are promoted so that the audience that the film is for will be attracted to it. We also learnt why some cinema films are released in different countries before the UK and what the process is of getting films to cinemas across the globe and how complicated it is.

Last week Thursday lesson

In Thursdays lesson we went over what would be in the second part of the media exam and how to approach it. The second part of the exam will be similar to the English exam we were taught some key media aspects to help us to answer the questions properly.

The Evaluation of Hit Station

Today  me and my group went over the concept for our opening sequence for Hit Station and have decided that our idea wasn't as good as we though it was so we attempted to improve the story so that it would be more interesting. For example we decide that instead of their being two characters in the sequence that their would only be one, after we decided this we had to figure out how the character would recieve a signal and beign the story. After some intense thinking with our media studies teacher we decide that we would bring the future of technology into the opening scene and with this idea to focus on we decided that everything would be electronic instead of using paper based letters. Even though we were almost done remaking Hit Station we decided just to drop the idea.

Media Lesson

On Tuesday 17th January 2012 in my media lesson the class task was to watch previous media studies students opening sequences and to pick out the good and bad aspects of the opening sequences and from the three I watched all of them had good storylines but their mistakes were simple things which could have been prevented such as problems with the costumes which that they didn't fit the part of the characters and another problem was the non diegtic sound which was constantly used which is good but it was also mixed with diegetic sound which sort of over rules the point of the non diegetic sound. This lesson was very helpful because it helped me and my group to realise which aspects to look for and which ones to avoid because marks can be loss easily.
