Evaluation Notes

In today's lesson, we started to go through the evaluation, looking at question 1 and picking out stuff that we would have to identify to analysis. Here are some of the notes I have taken down.

Question 1-

·         Use Theory

·         Link back to case studies (why you used the feature you used and what brought you to use the example of features

·         Make sure you use bullet points/notes (Use Powerpoint for example, doing a page of each of the analysis, a page for camera, editing, mise-en-scene (Location connoting a mood or an emotion). Look at the main technical features, not every single feature. 

3 Elements to question 1-

·         1- Textual Analysis of your music video and your two print products. (Bring in conventions, camera, editing, mise-en-scene, connotations of all of the examples. Bring in connotations of props, connotations of the use of colour (showing separation of the word ‘Exchange’ for example)

·         2- Comparisons/Contextualise against case studies/real media products. (Conventions which were followed or the same as real media items and look at subverted media items that are different from real ones.

·         3- Apply media theory to our products.
