First Post - Introduction to Media

  1. Why did you choose GCSE Media Studies? The reason I wanted to do Media studies was because I thought it would be useful for marketing jobs and that it would be a good back up choice.  
  2. Which part of the course are you looking forward to most? I am really looking forward to when we manage to make a nice music video.
  3. What knowledge and skills do you hope to learn in Media? I hope to learn, from media, how to edit videos and photos of a high stranded. 
  4. What grade are you realistically hoping to achieve in Media? I hope to achieve at least a B/A grade. 
  5. What was the last TV programme or film you watched? The last movie I watched was the Hunger Games for the second time.
  6. Why do you think that TV programme or film appealed to an audience? I personally believe it appealed to an audience because it was both action and romance, but neither was over done so it appealed to people who like one or the other or both.
  7. What technology have you used to access the media in the last 24 hours? (Radio, TV, phone etc.) Iv used my phone,TV and tablet. 
  8. What device do you use most to access the media? My phone.
  9. What is the main news story on the BBC News website currently? Why do you think it is the main story? The main story is about a Judge rebuking David Cameron for commenting on the conviction of Andy Coulson while the trial was still in progress. The reason I think this is the main story is because its to do with politics which often affect the country a lot and the public usually want to know about what's going on in the country. 
  10. What is the main news story on the Guardian website (guardian.co.uk) currently? Why do you think it is the main story? The story is the same as the BBC's main story. Therefore its again because of the same reason.

Film Posters And Trailers - Frozen

Image
Film Po ster Key concepts and themes of the movie are displayed in both the trailer and poster.The scenery of ice is constantly shown in both ways of marketing. The theme of ice is in synergy with the title "frozen". The way the word frozen is written in novelty font seems to look like it is carved by ice yet remaining magical, like Disney, at the same time.The fact that reindeer is running in the poster suggests that the movie is mainly fast pased. This is likely to attract a young audience as too much meaning and over compicating a movie is unappeling to a young audience.There are two girls but also 3 male characters, this mix of genre on the poster suggests a less girly movie, which is somewhat largerly what disney is about.The gender mix helps to appel to a male audience who want to see fast adverntourous stories.(the trialer suggests a fast story). The main character is shown on the left side of the poster. The way she is looking at the camera sugges...
