Preparing to write my Aims and Intentions (draft)

-

     How will your production conform to its industry context?
     How will your cross-media production demonstrate digital convergence?
     

How and why will you use media language in your cross-media production?
     In my textual analysis I noted down the common stylistic effects used in crime dramas. In terms of camera, extreme long shots are used to present a vulnerability of the characters, which I will use to enhance the size of the location really emphasising how finding her daughter is like finding a needle in a hay stack. Contradictory to that, extreme close-ups are often use to show emotion, I thought I could use this when the mother, Jodie, is talking about her missing daughter.


I intend on using heightened colours, brightening up the light and dulling down the dark to create a contrast. In my editing process I want to create this image where everything is slightly distorted with its colour or brightness, but only so much that you notice there is an abnormality without picking up on what it is. My idea here is to reflect the idea of an abnormal, heightened society from the one we live in today, using editing to enhance this.

How and why will you construct representations of individuals, groups and issues/ events?
How will you target your intended audience?
Audiences will appeal to my production as it will not be an exact representation of our society, instead it is my vision of how our society could potentially become. My aim is to reflect many feelings millennials hold towards views technology, with the split of the younger end of millennials viewing it has a normality – it is the world they have grown up in – and the older part of millennials, where they have experienced a lack of technology and grown up as it grows alongside them. An equal representation will be shown of gender, race, sexuality, economic status, as neither a positive or negative image will be portrayed. I will be exaggerating the relationship of humans with technology.

Editing Update

A major problem I experienced when editing was the length of my production. Only reaching around one minute, I decided to write an extra scene to fit in between my other two This scene features two detectives; Officer 1 (O1) and Officer 2 (O2), discussing the case. I tried to keep the narrative vague, so enigma's would be created to enhance the audience. I filmed the scene in my media classroom, selecting certain angles and shots to make the room look less like a classroom and more like an office. Officer 1 and Officer 2. O2 is O1’s boss. O1 answers directly to him. O2 also works tightly with their offices CI (so has a large amount authority). O2 is sarcastic and witty. Very intelligent. O1 is quick minded and one of the top detectives even though he is one of the youngest, so is respected but also controlled.   INT. Room with a desk in the centre, two chairs are behind the desk. Officer 2 is sitting behind the desk on his chair, relaxed reading through a file. Officer...

My name is Saskia Malhotra, I am 17 years old and am attending Hills Road Sixth Form College in Cambridge where I am studying Media, English Combined and Psychology. This blog is for my A-Level Media coursework. The task we have been set is to create an audio-visual sequence from a television programme and associated print materials to promote the same programme. My audio-visual sequence must be from one of the following points in the narrative/structure of my new television programme; a key turning point, a point of significant conflict or a resolution and be between 2:30 - 3:00 minutes long. To publicise my television programme, I must create a front cover and double page spread feature article to feature in a new lifestyle magazine.

I am planning on completely several step-by-step tasks to complete which will hel...
