Reflection Questions
- 2. Q1: How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues? My film is a drama, it has a very vulnerable mood and also a mood of suspense as a drama should have. My opening sequence represents teen in both middle and high school. It represents how teen feel on the inside at times. Teens tend to hide their feelings from the world and put a smile on their face and say that everything is okay. But in my opening sequence it shows that no matter how much you try to hide you pain there will always be that one person that sees how you feel and will try their best to help you and fix the problems. I feel that it exposes the real issue of bullying and how it can affect an individual.
- 3. Q2: How does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text? My sequence engages with people of 13 and up. It exposes a sense of vulnerability of an individual. The ending is kind of like a cliff hanger, it will make you want to know what type of relationship Megan and Jake will have and how he helps her. This video could be used in schools and camps to show that bullying is not a fun thing to do and it can really hurt someone. I would bring it first to very few schools and use it as a way to inform people of all ages how bullying is hurtful and is no way of living a healthy life.
- 4. Q3: How did your production skills develop throughout this project? During the process of filing I have found out many different things that can be used. It allowed me to see how my ideas can come to life but also allow a little of the actors ideas come to life on the screen as well. Lighting was a big part of the production and if you look at a previous video (Behind The Scenes) you will see how I chose the lighting. Also with the self-harming of Megan, trying to find what makeup I wanted to use was a big deal. I tried about 5 different ways to make the fake blood. I find directing a very fun job, producing a little stressful and editing I think is a very stressful job but my favorite part is being able to make it my own.
- 5. Q4: How did you integrate technologies software, hardware, and online in this project? For some of the sounds like dialogue I used a microphone that plugs into my Sony HD camcorder. I also used Wordpress to allow my teacher and Cambridge to view my project. A camcorder, Pinnacle Studio to edit the footage and iTunes to get an instrumental for background music which were all used to make this all possible.
