A2 MEDIA STUDIES

For A2 media studies I am going to be focusing on music video campaigns and looking at aspects in great detail such as the production of a music video itself, the creation of a digipack and a website for the created artist/band used in the music video. I will also be focusing in on some media theorists and throughout the entire process I will utilise the skills I learned from last year as well as acquiring new ones which I am greatly looking forward to.

From my previous posts, I have learnt to track all of my planning and processes on my blog and use it to my advantage in order to keep track of all my acquired knowledge and when it comes to creating a music video, keeping track of all the aspects that go into the creation of this. I have learnt to criticise my own ideas and work in the sense that I have to be harsh on the effect my ideas or concepts might have on an audience and take all of this into account when exploring my decisions. I feel as though this is most important when it comes to creating a music video as the effect on the audience is essentially the whole point to media products. I feel as though my last posts were not as detailed as I would like them to be and when it comes to the evaluating points, despite a lot of hard work going into each one I still feel I could have executed them better. I also feel as though the way in which my work is represented could have been more aesthetically pleasing and I aim to explore this in my next posts.

I feel as though I used a variation of different techniques in order to get the information across and I liked this range of different elements, however I still feel as though I wish to develop this and display an even wider range. I wish to be creative in the way in which I present my blog, while also ensuring it contains all the relevant information in a well executed way.

Over the course of A2 media studies I wish to develop my creative skills and want all of my coursework to be well executed and to a high standard, which I feel I am capable of. I hope to improve my blog in terms of presentation and language. I am looking forward to being able to expand my ideas and develop concepts in a way which makes them appealing and interesting. I will take into account the advice given to me from those around me and ensure that all my work is completed to the very best of my abilities.
