I learnt how to use these software's mainly on my own back. My progression in Photoshop has been evident over the past two years, from my preliminary AS task to my final AS piece's, the change in quality is dramatic. By learning different skills and becoming more aware of the importance of layout in my designs I have been able to raise the bar for my media products.
In Question 1(a) you need to write about your work for the Foundation Portfolio and Advanced Portfolio units and you may refer to other media production work you have undertaken. Explain the most significant ways in which your media productions were informed by your understanding of the conventions of real media texts. Refer to a range of examples in your answer to demonstrate how this developed over time. [25 marks]
Real media texts were an essential influence for both my AS and A2 products. They allowed for an understanding of the conventions of the genre as well as a form of inspiration. My use of real media texts are interpreted throughout my media products in my coursework.
At AS we researched into film openings by watching them on YouTube. By watching the openings for ‘Kidulthood’ and ‘Attack the Block’ we found the genre conventions of a male protagonist and an urban setting. Thus our film opening follows these conventions, being set in urban backstreets and having a male protagonist. In addition, we found that dramas often have a flash forward beginning, for example ‘Trainspotting’. This flash forward was recreated in our opening by beginning with the teen boy running away from something. Specific shot types such as a close up of feet came from watching ‘Trainspotting’s’ chase scene. In addition, the use of titles came from watching various film opening titles on ‘Art of the Title’ and thus we produced titles similar to ‘This is England’ by using plain white writing so as not to distract from the action. At AS, the final product was heavily influenced by real media texts.
