Media Language

This is the blog for component 3 discussing the media language and technical elements and storylines that I used to generate meaning to support dominant reading and target audiences. This talks about the ones that I couldn’t fit in my CR, and will focus more on the non-styling aspects. I have made a separate blog for media language related to styling. This blog was done by me (Cassie).

REFLECTION:

My role in this stage was creating this blog. The media language blog was really useful because it let me explain all our technical choices like camera, sound, mis-en-scene, and editing in more detail, especially things we couldn’t fully include it in our critical reflection because of the word limit. It was also actually fun to see how all the different elements we worked on came together to create real meaning and tell a story through media, giving us meaningful connections to these projects. This improves the quality of it too. However, one problem I faced though was that this blog took so long to complete and was really exhausting, especially since I had a lot to talk about. Despite that, I’m still really happy with the final result and I think it turned out pretty well and according to what we want and expect. Moreover, to solve this, I worked on the blog in chunks, so every other day I would complete a few sections and then stop when I felt tired which helped me stay motivated and not get overwhelmed by the loads of tasks left that is yet to be done. Next time, I would try to manage my time more efficient and effectively. I’d definitely want to start earlier and not feel rushed and panicking which may hinder the quality of my future projects if this keeps on happening.
