Our unit 5 course project was to produce a 3-minute music video choosing our own artist and song. We selected Rudimental's "Waiting All Night." Our target audience was pre-teens to mid-20s who enjoy dance music. We used various film techniques and codes from music videos including shots of the performer singing and dancing. Extensive pre-production included research, storyboarding, scheduling and risk assessment. The finished video differed from our initial idea but appealed to our target demographic and matched the genre of the song. Feedback praised how our editing fit the pace of the song.

It summarizes that a music magazine cover uses bright colors to advertise lighthearted, indie music featuring artists like Taylor Swift, Rihanna, and Katy Perry, targeting young teenage girls. However, the title of the magazine cannot be seen clearly on the cover. It also notes that a Kerrang magazine cover uses dark colors and packs the cover with pictures and text, while liking aspects of both. For their own magazine cover, the author wants to feature a guitar or microphone prop, keep the title clear, and use a color theme with one artist in different photo shoots and poses.
The new kid on the block
Hannah Morse is looking forward to her debut performance at Leeds Festival this year, where she hopes to get her name out to more people. While she enjoys touring, being away from home for long periods is the hardest part. Before shows, she stays calm by talking with her crew and playing guitar to warm up.
Photo shoot plan
The photographer plans to take photos of a musician in a studio with a black backdrop and props like a guitar. They want lighting that shows the set and the artist performing. The clothes will be casual like jeans and a bright top to suit the musician performing. Small multi-colored lights and an old suitcase prop will add atmosphere. Drawing from Ami Barwell's dark clothing on a light backdrop technique, the photographer will use a dark backdrop with lighter clothing and capture details with different angles and close-ups. Soft lighting will help the multi-colored lights stand out and low dramatic lighting will ensure the artist is visible. Health and safety precautions like taping down light wires and keeping the space tidy will be followed.
Need for speed essay
Aaron Paul, known for his role in Breaking Bad, was cast as the lead in the new car racing film Need for Speed. His popularity from Breaking Bad helped attract audiences to the new film.

Paul also promoted the film on The Graham Norton Show, widening its audience further. Need for Speed was originally a popular video game, so the film targeted that audience as well as fans of Aaron Paul and car racing films.

Editing Radio Advert
This document summarizes a project in Reaper, an audio editing software. The author imported audio clips from YouTube and recorded voiceovers to create a radio advertisement. They overlapped audio tracks and added volume controls to blend the clips together. Shortening the ending voiceover allowed the author to keep the final advertisement within the required 30 second time frame.
Evaluation
This photograph was taken indoors with a high ISO to capture a drummer reenacting another photographer's composition in black and white. Minor editing was done to convert it to black and white and crop the sides. The photographer found it challenging to recreate the pose but thought focusing on just the drummer worked best. Photoshop was used to apply a monochrome filter. Details like the drummer biting his drumstick show his instrument and personality. It would be suitable to advertise the drummer's band in a music magazine, especially if on the page of an interview with him.
M a-s-p
Depth of field uses blur to focus the viewer's attention on a specific part of the composition by blurring other areas. Using manual focus allows more control over depth of field than auto settings.
Shutter speed controls the duration that the camera's shutter is open, affecting how motion is captured. Faster shutter speeds freeze motion while slower shutter speeds blur motion.
Aperture controls the amount of light entering the camera, affecting exposure. The right aperture depends on lighting conditions - a wider aperture admits more light while a narrower aperture admits less light. Adjusting the ISO can also impact exposure by making the image lighter or darker.
Photography rules
The document discusses several rules of photography including the rule of thirds, framing, leading lines, balancing elements, symmetry and patterns, and depth of field. The rule of thirds involves placing the subject off-center at the intersection points of an imaginary three-by-three grid over the photo. Framing uses natural or man-made frames to focus on the subject. Leading lines guide the eye through the photo from foreground to background. Balancing elements places the main subject off-center and adds another object to fill empty space. Symmetry creates a strong focal point with mirrored or balanced images. Depth of field controls what is in or out of focus to direct attention.
Storm thorgerson
Storm Thorgerson is a creative photographer known for his work with Pink Floyd. He takes unusual approaches that are distinct from ordinary photography. One photo for a Pink Floyd album cover uses depth of field so band members further away are less defined. It also features a photo within the photo, showing Thorgerson's signature style. Another photo lays out the band's instruments and equipment in an interesting composition, with details like "Pink Floyd" written on the bass to add interest without making the band the main focus. Thorgerson's experimental styles produce unique, visually engaging photos.

It discusses how the director's background influences what they choose to film and how the audience decodes meaning based on their own age, gender, ethnicity, social class, and culture. It then examines specific films, including how the Batman trilogy satisfied existing fans but also analyzed the audience for films like This is the End and Spinal Tap.

Personal statement
- 1. Personal Statement I have been inspired by many people throughout my time doing Performing Arts, Music, Photography and Media. Music teachers have helped me gain possibilities, people in my Performing Arts group and encouraged me to perform, my uncle who has had no photography lessons has shared opportunities by letting me go with him on photo shoots, also, films and film reviews have inspired me to learn how things are done and why they were done. I have always known I wanted to have a creative job and by learning the ways of Radio and filming music videos has shown me a wider range of creative things I can do. The reason I would like to take on this course is because I am very interested in the whole Media industry. In my spare time I go out and take photos and edit them using an online editing site. The pictures I take care of, mostly, buildings. I would love to take a wider range of photos, such as, of models. I have my own equipment, including, Camera (NikonD3000), Video Camera, Flashgun and a tripod. I got into photography when I was in year ten at Harrop Fold High School. This showed me the behind scenes part of the Media and it really interested me. I also watch videos of music videos being made. This is to give me an idea of what it would be like on set. From this it has helped me decide that I would like to go into television, being a director or producer. During college we learned about the Radio industry. Having a go with the equipment myself, made me find the radio industry interesting and enjoyable. After listening to radio stations, such as, Radio One and Xfm, it made me think about working as a DJ for a radio station, or putting together a radio show. This is why I am interested in studying the Radio side of the industry. With me really enjoying music and being creative with photography and filming, I find this course will be perfect to cover both areas and I will enjoy doing the assignments given. I am glad I chose Media in College because it is perfect for what I want to do in University and as a job. Also, in High School, taking Performing Arts gave me the experience of directing and coming with artistic ideas that will entertain. We also had to choose the lighting we wanted and the sounds that were needed. It helped taking that option for 2 years because with my High School not having Media as an option, this felt like the closest thing to it. Having the chance to direct our performances made me realise how much I enjoy the behind the scenes of Media. Also, taking the after school course of Photography helped show me the filming and making side of the Media. All my experiences have been important and I have learned a lot from them. I find that going to University will help me learn a lot more about the Media industry in much greater detail. I have never doubted the thought of going to University because of my influences at home and because I want to learn more and ensure I have the qualifications to do what I want when I leave. During Primary school we had to have a music lesson, learning Recorder. Because I was very into music I took to this very well and gained two Distinctions in my two exams. As an extra
- 2. lesson we had the choice to learn Violin. I took the lessons and gained a Merit in my exam. I also performed in the Primary Schools concert, which included a Recorder solo. In High school I took Performing Arts Double award, this meant I took it over two years, achieving an overall B. Within this I directed, acted, danced and sung. Because I was so interested in Performing Arts and singing, my singer teacher gave me the lead role in a half an hour long musical at the Lowry. These experiences gave me confidence in performing and also speaking my mind, if I felt like something needed changing or I had an opinion something, I was able to point it out. Being involved in music and performance showed me that I am comfortable with working in the industry and that I have experience in the off stage and on stage.
