Hello and Welcome to my AS Level Media Studies Blog! We live in a whole media-saturated world. From TV ads to blockbuster movies to the music in your ears, you are surrounded by media messages throughout your life. This is why i have chosen media as an AS level subject as i feel it is an incredibly essential subject to take that will be incredibly useful in life!

Evaluation Question 5 : How did we attract/adress our audience?
For Robert and I receiving feedback on our main task, we firstly
got feedback through primary and secondary audiences. Our primary audience were
people who wanted to see the film and told us what they liked and what they
disliked about our film. We listened to people’s views on what they felt like
needed to be improved and we acted upon it quickly by improving our film with
those improvement ideas. For example our audience mainly said our titles were
too big which got in the way of the screen time, so we made them smaller which
suited our audience’s needs. By doing this, this shows we have attracted an
audience and are improving our film for their needs and also by making a film
they are keen to watch.
For our secondary audience feedback, we basically got people
who were less keen to watch mine and Roberts’s film, but could end up showing
it to their friends and family.

Our Rough cut final opening sequence main task class feedback
On Wednesday 24th February we presented our current edited version of our opening sequence for 'Anonymous' which went successfully and we got lots of positive feedback and notes for improvement.
Thing for us to improve on include:
- Decrease the size font of our titles as they cover the screen too much (too big).
- The background music is too loud at the beginning and needs to be dimmed so the voices of the characters are more clear for the audience to hear.
- Cut down on unneeded scenes as our film opening is currently too long at 2 minutes 45 seconds and the examiner only marks the first 2 minutes of it. So we need to get out film opening down to 2 minutes for it to be fully appreciated.

Progressing with our opening scene
Me and Rob are over half way through creating our film opening where I am editing the sound/effects and Rob is editing the main footage on Premiere pro. We used a seperate more advanced over the shoulder microphone of a long stick for much better sound for the voices of the characters in our film opening. However this meant the files of the audio will be seperate from the video footage , so when we were putting the film together , I had to sync the audio with the video footage which is difficult getting it 100% precise.
