Music video risk assesment by shannon orr & skye nelskyeeneel
This document provides a template for conducting a risk assessment for a film production. It lists common hazards encountered during filming such as tripping, weather changes, electrical equipment, drowning, wildlife, and falling trees. For each hazard, the template evaluates the risk level based on which scenes the hazard may occur in, who or what may be harmed, existing risk controls, and the overall risk assessment level according to a provided chart. The risk assessment levels range from low to extreme and are used to determine any further actions needed to improve safety during filming.

Music video analysis_worksheets_ms_word_versionskyeeneel
The document provides analysis worksheets for students to analyze music videos based on themes of gender roles, race, sexuality, materialism, and violence. For the song "Pretender" by Foo Fighters, the summary notes that the music video only features men who are angrily rocking out on an ice rink. For the song "Wrecking Ball" by Miley Cyrus, the summary states that the music video depicts Miley naked and licking a sledgehammer, symbolizing being sexually ruined by a man. The document contains similar analysis questions and student responses for other music videos.
The music video script tells the story of a male character searching for clues in the forest to find a missing female character. It alternates between flashbacks showing the female hiding a box and being chased by a masked figure, and the present day male investigating her footprints and buried clues. The male eventually finds the box containing a photo of the female with the masked figure in the background and a note saying she was never to be seen. The script uses techniques like grayscale, mists, and blurred/out of focus shots to convey mystery and tension as the male pieces together what happened to the female character.
This document discusses different approaches to analyzing movies, including genre analysis and auteur theory. It focuses on using genre analysis and Lacey's Repertoire of Elements, which examines the setting, characters, narrative events, iconography, style, and technical/audio codes of a movie.

The photographer captured a variety of locations using different angles and perspectives. Strengths included diverse viewpoints while weaknesses included lack of alternative shots for editing options. Shutter speed, ISO, and aperture remained consistent across photos.
The document summarizes three fantasy movies that the author enjoys: Avatar, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

The document discusses the target audiences and design elements of two magazines - Kerrang and Vibe.
For Kerrang, the target audience is 12-25 year olds who are mainly male and lower class, interested in rock/indie music. The magazine uses bold colors, random font placement, and informal language to appeal to this audience.
Vibe's target is 18-35 year olds of both genders from middle-class backgrounds interested in hip hop/dance music. It uses more sophisticated fonts and standardized colors and placement to seem more mature and appeal to an older audience.

The survey asked respondents for feedback on a documentary about PTSD and its target audience. Questions gauged whether the documentary was suitable for its intended PTSD sufferers and family audience, what type of audience it may suit best, if stationary camera work made it boring, and if the information was suitable for the target group. Respondents could choose between three answers for each question that provided both positive and constructive criticism.
Depression and bipolar disorder secondary researchskyeeneel
This document summarizes a secondary research source about depression and bipolar disorder. The source discusses the symptoms of major depression disorder, drawing information from multiple experts in the field rather than just one person's viewpoint. The research presented is factual, outlining the key symptoms of the disorder.

Skye Nel summarizes their work on creating three news stories for a radio show group project. They discuss recording their "copy only" story on the Salford fire, which was difficult due to pausing too long between sentences. Their "voicer" story interviewed the media technician about the EMMA awards ceremony but could have been clearer. Feedback on their "vox pops" story about The Pirate Bay was positive as they knew the topic well and interviews were edited in well. Areas for improvement included speaking pace, clarity, editing mistakes out, and balancing audio levels between voice and interviews.

The document is a script for a radio show interviewing Paul Rossington about the Eccles Multi Media Awards (E.M.M.A.'s), an award ceremony that recognizes student work and achievements in media, film studies, games design, and art. The interviewer asks Paul Rossington about the purpose of the awards, how winners are chosen, and what the awards do for students and parents.
The interview prep sheet outlines an upcoming interview on July 5th between journalist Skye Nel and Chris Gladwin about the Eccles Multi Media Awards (E.M.M.A's). The interview will take place at the College and be recorded with a voice recorder. The purpose is for Skye to find out information about the E.M.M.A's, and planned questions cover what they are, why they were organized, how winners are chosen, what they do for pupils and parents, when the next ones will be held, where they are held, and who they are for.
This Facebook page shows screenshots from the Eccles Sixth Form Center Media Department page. The screenshots display a compilation of both the winners and nominees from a competition. In a few sentences, the page highlights recognition given to students in media studies.
For over a decade, The Pirate Bay was the most popular site for downloading copyrighted content like TV shows and movies without payment. It allowed easy, anonymous piracy through file sharing and torrent searches. This greatly concerned the movie industry, which claimed piracy cost it $6.1 billion in 2006 alone. Despite Sweden's lax copyright laws, pressure from the US government led to a police raid on The Pirate Bay in 2006. Though servers were confiscated, the site returned online more popular than before. While traffic dipped after the shutdown, it was back up to previous levels within a week, demonstrating the difficulty in stopping piracy networks that replace each other.
