2013 MAIN Post 12.1: Question 1

Post Title - In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

Tasks
1.1 Write a director's commentary to highlight how your opening sequence uses or breaks away from conventions. Comment on the following as a minimum, not necessarily in this order.

• Structure of sequence
• Style of presentation
• Style/colour of font
• Genre
• Narrative enigma
• Introduction of characters
• Camera
• Sound
• Editing & Special Effects
• Mise-en-scene

1.2 Record script - you'll need to do this while watching your title sequence to get the right timings. (Last year students said too much and had to pause their films, providing what you are saying is important then you can still do this.)

1.3 Layer the audio over your film saving in your own area so that you don't affect your groups work.
1.4 Export & put on YouTube.
1.5 Insert into blog.
