Gender roles are also stereotypical, with the happy family initially shown and then just the distressed teenage girl at the end. While socioeconomic class is not explicitly shown in the sequence, the characters are implied to be wealthy later in the film, allowing for potential neglect of the child victim.
Evaluation Question 4
The target audience for the media product is young adults. Primary research was conducted through questionnaires and interviews with a sample group of youth to understand what would appeal to this target market.

Evaluation 2
The document discusses how the media product represents particular social groups and gender.

A preferred reading accepts the producer's intended meaning, a negotiated reading understands the producer's goals but interprets it through their own lens, and an oppositional reading rejects the producer's values embedded in the text. The document asks how different audiences may interpret a TV drama trailer differently based on these concepts.
Media language social
This document provides information about media language and semiotics. It defines key terms like denotation and connotation, and signifiers and signified. It explains how Roland Barthes' semiotic theory examines how media texts construct cultural meanings through signs on both a denotative and connotative level. Examples are provided of how signs in advertisements take on connotative meanings based on codes and conventions that are culturally understood. The document suggests analyzing one's own media content for its use of signs, denotations, connotations, and how it may reinforce cultural myths.
Camerawork for AS Media
The document discusses various techniques of camera work including angle, movement, position/framing, composition, and depth of field. It provides examples of different camera angles like high, low, and canted angles. It also discusses different types of camera movement such as pans, tilts, tracks, cranes, handheld shots, and zooms. Position/framing refers to the distance between the camera and subject, such as extreme long shots, medium shots, and close-ups. Composition techniques like the rule of thirds are also covered. Depth of field refers to focal length and examples of selective focus, deep focus, and pull focus are given.
Sound Lesson 2013
This document provides lesson objectives and materials for teaching students about the use of sound in media. It begins by explaining the key objectives: for students to understand diegetic and non-diegetic sound with examples; analyze how sound creates meaning in a TV drama clip; and use sound terminology. It then defines important sound terminology like diegetic, non-diegetic, sound effects, and voiceovers. Examples are provided of different sound clips to analyze meanings. The document aims to teach students how sound enhances emotional experience and meaning in media.
Representation for Q1b 2014
This document provides a framework for analyzing representations in media based on Richard Dyer's work. It outlines four key questions: 1) What is represented in terms of characters, subject matter, and place? 2) How are social groups represented and what stereotypes are reinforced? 3) Who is responsible for the representations? 4) How might different audiences respond to and make meaning from the representations? For each question, it gives examples of what to consider such as character demographics, production companies, and how representations relate to genres and target audiences.
Q1(b) overview
This document provides guidance for answering a question that requires students to select a production task and evaluate it in relation to one of several media concepts, including genre, narrative, representation, audience, or media language. It asks what the examiner says the question is about and provides examples of past questions.
Narrative for Q1(b)
The document discusses narrative structure in film, distinguishing between plot and story. It defines plot as the explicit events presented in a film, while the story includes both explicit and inferred events. Bordwell and Thompson's definitions of explicit vs inferred events are provided. The key to narrative analysis is considering the wider story, not just the plot, as audiences infer subtle details. Narrative structure techniques like restricted/unrestricted narratives, open/closed narratives, and enigma codes that engage audiences are also discussed.
Making my company ident
The document describes the process of creating an opening title sequence or "ident" for a student horror film project. The student chose to use Final Cut Pro software and selected an "ink splats" animation template that could be customized. They changed the title to "RED KAM" representing their group's initials. Colors and fonts were adjusted to have a dark, bloody look matching the horror genre. Sound effects were also selected and layered, including a drone sound, water drip, flutter, and impact metal, to create a spooky atmosphere for the ident.

The document discusses the target audience for a horror film. It analyzes other similar horror films like The Ring that are rated 15 to determine the target audience should also be 15-19 year old teenagers, mainly girls.

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real life
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands.

This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

Pitch presentation (hmgk)
- 1. PITCH PRESENTATION Our working title - FL!GHT Hannah, Georgie, Meagan and Keziah.
- 2. SYNOPSIS This story is about a girl who is training for a big upcoming kick-boxing match in New Zealand. However her training becomes an obsession, meanwhile her supposed best friend turns against her and sabotages her chance of participating to achieve victory.
- 3. KEY THEMES • Jealousy • Friendship • Sport • Guilt • Obsession • Violence • Suspense • Fear • Revenge
- 4. CHARACTER INFORMATION Emma (MAIN CHARACTER): She is a very sporty character that participates in kick- boxing. She is dedicated and hard-working, however she finds it hard to keep up with her social life especially her best friend Natalie. Emma doesn’t mean any harm but seems to get herself into difficult situations. Her dad died when she was younger and her mum is not very supportive of what she does. She has been bought up with a rough background and has very little money, but took up kick-boxing to keep her mind at rest. Emma's character is very similar to the character Shania from Fast Girls who is also an athlete who had a hard childhood.
- 5. CHARACTER INFORMATION Natalie: She is Emma's best friend, however is quite jealous of the future Emma has ahead of her. Natalie is of a higher class and is used to getting exactly what she wants, therefore she doesn’t appreciate the hard work that Emma puts in to her training. She isn't supportive of Emma and instead turns against her as she feels she doesn’t spend enough time with her.
- 6. CHARACTER INFORMATION Joe: He is Natalie's boyfriend. He creates a violent impression as he is from a rough background like Emma. He has no motivation or respect for people that work hard like Emma does. Joe is big-built and has a vicious approach. He wears tracksuits and trainers, giving off a quite chavy look. He can come across as lazy and mixes with the wrong crowds, such as gangs and criminals which evoke bad behavior.
- 7. TARGET AUDIENCE PROFILE My name is Sophie, I am 16 years old. I use social media very often. Using apps such as Instagram, Twitter and Snapchat. I usually find out about new films online. I enjoy going to the cinema to watch new, interesting films. My favourite types of films are thrillers and some dramas. I particularly enjoy participating and watching different types of sport. As I am a teenager I am involved in and know a lot about different types of relationships. When listening to the radio I enjoy Capital FM, Kiss 100 and sometimes TalkSPORT. I own an IPhone 6, an IPad mini and a laptop. IDEAL/TYPICAL TARGET AUDIENCE MEMBER
- 8. TITLE AND OPENING SEQUENCE IDEAS We have discussed as a group that we are most likely going to do a continuity style sequence for our opening, this will make it more realist and therefore relevant to the film. It will include a range of shots which show different aspects of the main characters life. We also establish setting and most likely some of the other characters which will be in the film in the opening sequence; this will give the audience an idea of the story line, who will be in the film and where about it'll take place. For example, we may film a close up shot of Emma in the gym and different parts of her morning routine. We may also film more tense, thrilling moments such as the lights flashing on and off in the gym to give a feel for the sabotage aspect of the film. Here is an example of a close up of a face - taken from the film South Paw (2015). We may create similar shots to introduce characters.
- 9. APPEALING TO OUR TARGET AUDIENCE We hope to entice our audience by making our opening sequence relevant to what they enjoy watching. As a group we will have to make sure our opening provides the feeling of a thriller and not just make it seem like a drama film. With preparation we will ensure the opening is exciting enough to keep our audiences attention, to do so we will most likely use relevant music and unique shots which provide a sense of what the entire film will be like.
- 10. QUESTIONS FOR FEEDBACK 1. Do you think that our characters and storyline are believable? 2. Do you think we need to add anything to our storyline to make it more intense/scary? 3. Would you personally want to come and see this film? 4. Does anyone have any other additional advice / opinions?
