Inspiration Mood Board
Our music video was inspired by the indie genre, using a black and white color scheme, natural lighting from nature and locations in London. Costumes from artists like Birdy and Lana Del Rey inspired plain but defining outfits. The video for Nikita uses flashbacks in black and white to show her past relationship, with her present self dealing with heartbreak and finding independence, like a coming-of-age after a breakup.
Digipak conventions
The document discusses the symbolic meanings behind the artwork on the digipaks for three albums:
Rihanna's "Anti", Kanye West's "Graduation", and Adele's "21". For "Anti", the front cover portrait of Rihanna as a child represents themes of obscured vision and the desire to transcend reality. "Graduation" features a teddy bear throughout to represent Kanye's life after graduating from college. For "21", the simple front cover photo of just Adele reflects her popularity for being herself and talented without excessive artwork, similarly to how her previous albums "19" and "25" were named for her ages.
Adele
Adele's music video for "Someone Like You" features her dressed casually walking alone through Paris, emphasized through black and white cinematography. Close-ups show her facial expressions of pain and hurt over a lost love. Wide shots depict her isolation as she watches her former partner walk away, conveying her depressed and gloomy state after the relationship ends. The simple editing and cinematography help communicate Adele's feelings of heartbreak and loneliness.
Digipak magazine
The document summarizes a poster for Lana Del Rey. It uses a simple black and white color scheme with subtle shades of pink and purple that stands out and represents the indie pop genre.

Elements like flowers, butterflies, and the transparency of her logo over her face imply there is more to her sound than what initially meets the eye.

Film scores started with opera and theater to cover projector noise, use classical music to set emotion and drama, and immerse viewers in the movie world.

7 habits of highly effective media students
This document provides advice for effectively studying media studies as an academic subject. It recommends that students (1) analyze various media texts by deconstructing them and applying relevant media theories, (2) learn and apply key terms and theories from theorists to contemporary examples in writing, and (3) conduct thorough research beyond Wikipedia by assessing reliability and developing personal responses rather than just repeating information.
Intro to identity A2 media
The document discusses the topic of identities and the media for an exam section. It outlines several areas candidates may study, including the mainstream media's role in constructing identities, the impact of social media on identity, and debates around dominant and marginalized identities. Case studies provided as examples could analyze the construction of female teen identities in relation to celebrity culture and how different aspects of a celebrity's identity are produced and reinforced through various media. The summary should consider how identity is constructed across different media forms and producers, examine technology's role in shaping identity, and consider the effect of identity politics on the media and how marginalized groups express identity.
Analysing Visual Images in Media Texts
The document discusses techniques for analyzing visual images, including photographs, illustrations, and computer manipulated images. It covers various photographic elements and techniques like shot size, angle, composition, framing, contrast, lighting, focus, shutter speed, and aperture. It also discusses how photographs and illustrations can be used to convey different meanings and styles, such as gritty realism, surrealism, spectacle, fantasy, humor, intertextuality, and appeals to childhood nostalgia or parents. Finally, it notes that visual images often rely on techniques like intertextuality, parody, pastiche, and bricolage to communicate on multiple levels, as seen in postmodern visual examples.
Analysing Print News: Media Theory
Here are some key points to consider in analysing this media text:
1. The text aims to meet audience expectations of entertainment and sensationalism typical of tabloid newspapers. Stories focus on celebrity gossip, sensational crimes and controversies rather than in-depth news.
2. Tabloid style uses eye-catching headlines, images and short snippets to grab attention. Stories are simplified with an informal tone. Celebrity gossip offers vicarious pleasure and distraction from readers' own lives. Sensational stories satisfy curiosity about crime and controversy.
3. As a commercial enterprise, the paper prioritises profit over impartial facts. Stories are selected based on likely popularity rather than importance. Advertising also influences content choices.

Postmodernism: An introduction

Postmodernism emerged in the 1950s and became prominent in the 1980s. It combines old and new ideas from multiple sources to create something new. Postmodernists see reality as constructed and deconstruct meanings to reconstruct them differently. Key features include elements from different traditions, multiple narratives, disjointed stories, and questioning what is real.

Overall, current editing software gave her significant creative control over her video, allowing her to add effects and refine her clips.
Question 2
The document discusses the effectiveness of combining a music video, album, and magazine advertisement to promote an unsigned artist. It states that music videos are primarily used to promote music sales by allowing viewers to connect with a song. A magazine advertisement promotes the artist and informs people when and where to purchase the song. Producing an album gives the artist a chance to gain more popularity if people enjoy the promoted song. The combination of these promotional materials provides exposure through different mediums, with the potential to help an unknown artist become more well known and successful.
