2. I have done a lot of research into similar hard rock genre songs and
videos such as here with me by the killers and rockin’ all over the world
by status quo. I have decided to use the forms of real media products.
For example starting with the mise-en-scene in the video of the killers
shots have been recorded out in the city.
Here With Me
Deja Vu
3. Another way in which we used forms and conventions from media
products is our ancillary tasks as we created ancillary tasks which
displayed our band from the music video in a stressed kind of way. This
was to show that this was a really serious and a tensed video.
Real Media ProductMy Product
All of our album covers have similarity's as they are all showing the artists to
promote a star image but they are just showing them tensed than some other
album covers in other genre’s of music but this is quite common and generic for
the hard rock genre so this is how we used forms and conventions of real media
products
4. My project also covers quite controversial issues of gangsters,
and there influences on ordinary people, and also the issue of
crime. At one point I leave the viewer to decide if the people
really follow the conventions of criminals, if they are big time
mobsters, or simply people caught in the wrong place at the
wrong time. However, the people shown in my product are quite
young, which is quite unconventional, as usually men associated
with crime are a lot older.
The main group shown in my film project is middle class
teenager males. From my project it could be deduced that
males such as these are more likely to be involved in crime to
some extent, but are actually bad people. Also, the costumes of
my characters do not change for the robbery. This could show
that the men are amateurs, and that stereotypically there social
group is not as used to the idea of crime as perhaps, for example,
working class men would. One large point of unconventionality in
my Media product is the fact that the men are teenagers. People
of this age are seen in other forms of media as drinking and
vandalizing, but these men seem to be from a good
background, and are already into serious crime.
