‘Blog feedback and Learner Response

 

A Pall



WWW:

  • Your ‘Introduction to Photoshop’ – parrot task highlights that you have some technical capability – this will be useful for when we begin coursework. It is also admirable that you have reflected that you found it somewhat difficult due to the saving element.
  • Your ‘Denotation and Connotation’ blog post demonstrates your ability to analyse media texts – keep this up.

EBI:

  • The most important feedback I can give you is to meet deadlines and stay organised – use DF06 (Mr Ray’s room) at break or lunch to get homework completed to avoid detentions.
  • You are missing titles for a lot of your blog posts – see Media MacGuffin blog posts to see what you should be naming your blog posts.

LR:

1. Create a new blogpost on your Media blog called ‘Blog feedback and Learner Response’. Copy and paste this WWW/EBI feedback into your blogpost


2. Add the ‘The Rosario’ film poster image to the ‘Film poster’ blog post. 


3. Reflect on your first month of Media.

  • What do you feel is your strongest piece of work so far? I think my strongest piece is introduction to photoshop because i spent long on it and put effort in it.
  • What is your weakest? camera shots because i didn't really analyse a lot and write alot.
  • What specific skills or knowledge do you need to develop over the rest of the course? meet the deadlines, and add titles.

Mise-en-scene

  1. How has lighting been used in this scene? Take a screenshot of a specific example of lighting and explain the effect that is has on you as the audience.
     
    in this clip, the lights turn on to symbolise someone is also in the room with him.
  2.   Look at the costumes of the two lead actors in this scene. How have their costumes been designed to present one as the hero and one as the villain? 
  3. luke skywalker has a more soft costumes and its more fit and normal for humans while darth vader is masked, all solid black..

Camera Shots & Angles

  1. Find two examples of different camera shots from the scene. Take a screenshot of your specific example and explain who/what the shot focuses on and what effect this has on the readers perspective.
     a two shot angle is shown. This increases the tention because too people are together and it shows there chemistry together. 
     a establishing shot is shown, this gives the audience more info on the location and mood.
  2. Find an example of either a high or low angle shot. Take a screenshot of your specific example and explain who/what the shot focuses on and how it presents the power dynamic within the scene.

a lower angle is shown, this makes the subject look more big and look like it has more power.

Audio

  1. How have sound effects been used in this scene?  grunting sounds. What are they added to? to the two actors fighting. What effect does this add to the moments that they have been added to? this adds a sense of aggression.
  2. How has silence been used in the first half of the scene? How does it effect the tone and atmosphere of the scene?

This is to build heavy suspense and mask out the movements

You can see the women  is holding a  rosary and looking up to her God praying for a way out  because the creature is holding her neck, chocking her.  It has a lot of dark colours, symbolising dark shadows and bloody colours symbolising red...

Denotation and connotation

Image
The water aid advert communicates meaning to an audience for people to help them. There's a young boy who looks dehydrated and it says dig toilets not graves implying that a lot of people die and it may be caused due to the diarrhoea and poor sanitation. It may communicate to the audience for charity work, and the land is dry and it looks really hot so there may be problems with climate change, the clothes that the child is wearing looks damaged or ripped.  The cigarette advert communicates to an audience of smokers warning them on how cancer starts. The mutation growing on the cigarette warns them on what will start growing on their body. The lighted cigarette represent them lighting a new cigarette showing they are not listening to the advice that's given to them. The beard and grey hair probably represents they are a old/grown man so they've probably been smoking for a long time.
