Anguish

Below is my final production, I hope that you enjoy my media product. I have used a label system to help with navigation around my blog, thank you.

Evaluation Question 1

I answered this question in the style of a directors commentary as this allowed my to talked about the visual whilst it was on the screen.

Evaluation Question 2

Media evaluation question 2 transcript - this is what the video reads in case it's unclear.

Within our media product we only have one character over all she represents the social group of a young female.

Megan’s character is around 18 years old, this is similar to our target audience which can help them relate to her. She is shown in the mirror which suggests that she is aware of how she looks, from Megan’s appearance the audience is able to see that she is a young female therefore representing that particular social group. During the first minute Megan is wearing light colours, she also has light hair and a bright face and this will help the audience identify her as a protagonist.

My group and I wanted the character to come across average as this follows the social groups in similar opening sequences I had watched.
She has clothes that are similar and popular with other girls her age.
The One Direction mug gives some insight to her interests and shows that she is in touch with popular culture and adds to the representation that she is a normal girl with a normal life.  The audience is able to see Megan in her own environment whilst she is following her routine, the order of this situation is able to portray Megan as being non-threatening.

Once Megan leaves her own environment and enters out side her body language changes and she becomes shifty, she is now also wearing black which helps emphasize this uncertainty.
Media often plays of stereotypes we decided to do this as we wanted as we wanted Megan to come venerable but not helpless. Despite her shifty behaviors Megan remains to have an open expression and clear face which helps represent her as honest.
However the deeper story of our plot portrays Megan’s character as having hidden secrets. Twisting her stereotype is good way to shock the audience and keep them guessing. 
From our opening sequence Megan is able to come across as an average girl, but it also give hints the audience that every thing is not always as it seems.
