Fern Disney evaluates her media product "Dolls Domain" in three sentences:
The media product develops forms and conventions of real horror films by featuring scary women manipulating childlike things like dolls. It represents mainstream audiences from lower social grades. BBC Films would be a suitable distributor because it has distributed similar films involving the manipulation of child innocence.
Evaluation
This document summarizes Fern Disney's evaluation of their media project "Dolls Domain". It discusses how the project develops conventions of real horror media by featuring a scary female antagonist and child-like elements. The project represents mainstream social groups grades E to C1. The BBC would be a suitable distributor as they have distributed similar films. The target audience is teenagers aged 15 and up who enjoy horror films. Fern gathered audience feedback through surveys and teasers to attract viewers. They learned various video editing technologies through constructing the project and saw significant progression from their preliminary work.
Representation intro
This document discusses representation in media and discusses how representation will be explored at AS and A2 levels. At AS level, students are asked questions about who is being represented, how they are represented, who is doing the representing, why they are being represented in that way, and whether the representation is fair and accurate. Students also consider opportunities for self-representation.
At A2 level, students will explore two case studies of how particular groups or places are portrayed across different media types. This includes looking at alternative representations, issues of stereotyping, how to achieve fair and accurate representation, the role of power in representation, and reasons for dominant representations from historical, economic, social and political perspectives.
Film openings 2
This document provides guidance for students on creating effective openings for short fiction films. It outlines a 9-step process for planning, shooting, and evaluating the film opening. The steps include researching different opening techniques, brainstorming original ideas, thorough pre-production planning, executing the shoot, editing the footage, and conducting a self-evaluation. Students are advised to thoroughly plan all aspects of the project, document their process, and avoid cliches that are too similar to popular film openings. Paying close attention to details and learning from other works will help students achieve high marks.
Semiotics
This document provides an overview of semiotics and how it can be applied to analyze media texts. It defines semiotics as the study of signs and things that represent something else. It explains how images can be decoded by looking at their denotation (what is literally seen) and connotation (deeper meanings and associations). Examples are given of analyzing colors and images for their denotations and connotations. The document also discusses how audiences can interpret media texts in preferred or oppositional readings based on the intentions of the creator versus the viewer's own perspective.
Individual film pitch
The document provides guidance for students to develop an individual film pitch that will be presented to their group. The pitch should include details about the genre, storyline, characters, setting, themes, target audience, and opening sequence. It also lists practical considerations like budget, locations, and technical requirements. Examples of successful past pitches are linked for reference. Feedback will be provided based on criteria such as how engaging the idea is and whether it demonstrates originality. The best idea from each group will be selected to develop further and potentially "greenlight" for production.
