AS Media Studies Media Form: Opening Sequences
So I’ve got my blog started…. Now what? Practical work is probably the main reason why students choose to do Media Studies, but you will be spending a considerable amount of time learning about, amongst other things;  ‘reading’ the media Institutions Audiences Ideology Representation Genre Narrative
It all links together… So when you undertake the practical production side of the course there is suddenly a reason for it all and a chance to demonstrate skills, understanding and creativity.
Time is money At the beginning of your first attempt at the Foundation production (note how I said first attempt  )you will probably feel that you have plenty of time before your piece is due and that there is ample time for thinking and experimenting – AVOID THESE THOUGHTS. In this scenario too much ‘inspiration time’ is wasted on thinking and not doing and then everything becomes a rush job and looks dodgy!
Context of portfolio ‘The purpose of the unit is for candidates to demonstrate a range of technical skills and understanding of media concepts by the construction of a media text. Candidates also record and monitor the production process and demonstrate evaluation, from planning to outcomes in the production log’ (your blog). From the OCR exam board.
Preliminary Research In the other exam units you will learn lots about reading media texts and different theories. It is important that you remember these and apply them during the prac production.
Form  You are creating the opening sequence for a film. This is NOT a trailer or a Television show or advert. This is a crucial starting point for your project. To create an opening sequence you will need to research a number of appropriate texts and note the general principles about their form.
Form notes  How are the characters introduced? How is the mood set? How is sound used? How is the text structured? Look in particular at opening sequences and consider how they are structured to create meaning for an audience.
An example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OYBEquZ_j0
Find me some examples Find 4 examples of film opening sequences from the thriller genre. Don’t all chose the same ones!! How are the characters introduced? How is the mood set? How is sound used? How is the text structured? Look in particular at opening sequences and consider how they are structured to create meaning for an audience.
