A2 Media Studies Kate

Reflection: This month I have managed to complete the first two evaluation questions using three different forms of media, iMovie, snapchat and screen recording. This has helped to give me a range of media products in my evaluation. I have also completed and uploaded research on different institutions that could produce my music video, digipak and magazine advert. These were record labels. To reflect on AS. 

This is question 2 for my evaluation of my main products. This question evaluates the effectiveness of both my main and ancillary tasks.

When doing into AS I had no expense in using adobe photoshop or any other kind of editing tool and had to learn everything from scratch. I watched a lot of youtube tutorial videos to learn how to use the programme and this helped me a lot. I had also created a magazine front cover as part of the preliminary task which helped me when coming to make my final product as I had some sort of idea as to what I was doing.

My research in AS was not as specific and direct as it could of been so going into A2 I made sure that I

This is question 1 of my evaluation. I have presented this question on snapchat. This question talks about how I used and challenged common codes and conventions of the rock genre as well as music videos, magazine adverts and digipaks. 

Aim: To complete reach into different music record labels/institutions.  Reflection: I have done a lot of research into the different music institutions and which I feel would be best suited to my music video. I feel that my music video will be best suited to the Universal Music Group as it best fits in with their current artists and music videos.

This is my time plan for the month of March. This month I will begin my evaluation as well as reflect back on AS. 

Aim: To finish off any work that I haven't already completed and upload them to my blog. To complete the first two evaluation questions about my final product to reflect on how well my whole project went. To reflect on last year, AS, portfolio.
