Evaluation Questions

Here is my interpretation of the evaluation questions, and how I intend to answer them.

Question 1: In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

This question is asking me to evaluate what media conventions we used in our opening sequence, for example our use of shots and angles. For this question I can do a directors commentary as this will enable me to talk through the composition of the film as it is on screen.

Question 2: How does your media product represent particular social groups?

This question is about which groups of people are represented in our film, for example, which social group the two main characters belong to.

Question 3: What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

For this question, I think a mock meeting with the media company we decide might distribute our product would answer this wuestion well, as we will have to pitch to them. We need to explain why our media product fits in with this company, relating to aspects such as plot, genre and target audience.

Question 4: Who would be the audience for your media product?

This question is asking me to discuss who our audience would be, relating it to aspects such as plot and age certification.

Question 5: How did you attract/adress your audience?

For this question, an interview with myself answering questions about how we included aspects of our target audience's requirements in our film should explain how we adressed and attracted our audience.

Question 6: What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

This question could be answered with a presentation about what I have learnt about technologies such as the camera, equipment and software as well as websites such as Blogger and Art of the Title.

Question 7: Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in theprogression from it to the full product?

This question is asking what techniques I have learnt in terms of camera shots, angles and editing, and how I then applied this to my final task.
