Media Studies: Evaluation Question 1

Evaluation Question 1

In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

In the video when referring to the different theories I am in fact referring to Vladimir Propp character theory and Tsyvetan Todorov narrative theory. Something that I also forgot to mention during the video is that the use of music to help tell the narrative of a short film is a typical convention one that i decided to stick with as I believe it works extremely effectively.
Below I have discussed a few more theories I believe I have developed and used when producing my short film as well as comparing my film poster and review against the style models I used. I have also discussed in more detail my decision to go against typical conventions of a love genre film poster.

Within the SlideBoom I have briefly written about how character and narrative theory apply to my film, due to talking about in detail during my video I haven't written about it in a great amount of detail as I would just be repeating myself however, I thought it may help to visually be able to see the connection between my film and the theories.

Below I have included a link to the two short films I spoke about during my video. Both short films have been nominated for awards showing the true success of the film.

Target A

To achieve my target my research, planning and evaluation must be detailed, effectively communicated and presented digitally, using a wide variety of formats. I need detailed
research into similar products and target audience and to show the process of planning by including excellent work on shotlists, drafts, storyboards, scripts, locations and props. I need to show full evidence of the research and planning informing the construction process.
My evaluation must reflect my excellent understanding of forms and conventions, an understanding of the use of new media throughout the stages of production, the way my ancillary and primary tasks combine effectively. There will be an excellent understanding of the significance of audience feedback.
My production work, across the formats, will demonstrates excellent creativity and imagination as I seek to make them as convincing as possible and it will also reflect my mastery
in technical skills such as controlled use of the camera, attention to framing, variety of shot sizes, close attention to mise-en-scène, appropriate transitions and use of sound.
