Question 2: How does you media product represent particular social groups?
My media product represents the Gothic and Emo social groups as being rather depressed and abused by other social groups. Also i represent Chavs as being the stronger superior social class that sees itself as being dominate and other groups as being weaker and less equivalent.
Question 3: What kind of institution might distribute your media product and why?
I feel that if my final media product was to be distributed by an institution that it would probably be an institute such as Summit Entertainment, Lionsgate or Film Four. i think this as these institutions have distributed films such as Twilight that are considered by larger organizations as not being blockbusters.
Question 4: Who would your audience be?
The audience for my finished product would be teenagers around the ages of 14 to 19 who are within social groups such as Emo's, Goths, Scene Kids and also people who see themselves as not being part of a social group. As well as the above younger children may feel the need to see it as they may find the film may excite them and scare them.
Question 5: How did you attract your audience?
I attracted the audience by having actors dress and act like certain social groups, these social groups were Emo's, Goths and Scene Kids. Also the music used is a song that would possibly be known by these social groups. the script was wrote to try and link in with what these social groups may like to see in films without losing interest.
Question 6: What have you learnt about technologies in the process of constructing your product?
When using the technology available to me when filming and editing the final product I feel that I learnt a few things about what I used. Before I started the media studies course I had never used an Apple Mac or the Final Cut express software I had no idea what did what. After using the equipment for around five to six months i feel capeable of using the equipment effectively.
Question 7: What have you learnt progressing from the preliminary task to the main task?
Progressing from the preliminary task to the main task i felt i have learnt more about how specific camera angles can make an individual seem weak or strong. Also before starting the course I'd never used a blog before but i feel that blogs are a great way of keeping work in one place and making it easily accessible. Final Cut express was a new program to me as i had never used a Apple Mac and I feel that now I have had the chance to use it I have become more able to produce better edited films.
