'When Two Became One'

Dear moderator, welcome to me AS Media Studies Blog, I have been making regular posts all throughout the school year to make an up to date record of the activities I have completed and the things I have achieved during the course. Please find below a copy of my opening sequence 'When Two Became One' Thank you.

1: In what ways does your media product use, develop or challengeforms and conventions of real media products?

2. How does your media product represent particular social groups?

This is an interview I set up to answer question 2, unfortunately the video is too big to upload in one go so I have cut it into two.

3. What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

4. Who would be the audience for your media product?

5. How did you attract/address your audience?



I think the main way we attracted our audience was by making our people realteable. Both characters are portrayed as average people. This means that people can relate to them easily and therefore make a connection with the opening sequence.
I also think we attracted our audience by making our opening sequence a classic rom com feel good theme. We have jolly music and sunny weather, I think both of these things make the scene uplifting.
Finally, by making the two characters pass and clearly acknowledge each other I think we created a strong enigma to draw the audience in. They are likely to want to watch the rest of the film to see whether the two protaganists fall in love with eachother or whether Joe is the stereotypical character in a rom com that tries to get hte girl but has many failed attempts adn ends up getting the girl stollen from him.

6. What have you learned about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

Please find below the link to a website I have made outlining the technology I have used in different stages and what I have learned.
