CCR: Creative Critical Reflection

 Creative Critical Reflection


1. How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues? 

- My product shows teenagers working for something that is not the norm for kids our age. It represents kids showing their interest in prelaw by participating and competing. For most teens, this may be considered boring so making a fun commercial challenges the conventions.
2. How does your product engage with audiences AND how would it be distributed as a real media text?

- My product engages the audience by taking them on a tour and engaging them through the video, for most of the commercial is from an audience's POV. I would distribute this commercial via social media such as TikTok and Instagram I feel like both of these sources cater to short ads and spreading advertisements amongst large groups of people quickly.

3. How did your production skills develop throughout this project? 

- During this production my skills have progressed I learned more about the planning that goes into a commercial such as planning wardrobe, settings, and scenes. I also learned more about shooting different angles, using the camera to add to the scene, and editing and finalizing the project.
4. How did you integrate technologies – software, hardware, and online – in this project?

- I used cameras as well as cell phones for filming and recording scenes. A hard drive helps transfer shots from my phone and camera to my laptop in order to edit. Finally used iMovie to edit all of our clips together and add sound effects, titles, and background music.

First Scene- In the first scene, a couple is madly in love. They have just came off of a date and the girl has a rose in her hand given to her by her significant other. They are walking holding hands down the pathway.  Second Scene- In the second scene, the significant other breaks up with the girl. This absolutely crushes her and she becomes very emotional. She becomes this emotional not only because of the breakup but also because of how shocking and off guard it was.  Third Scene- In the Third scene , the girl turns to something that she always knows will make her feel better. She puts on her headphones to try to get over the heartbreak that her boyfriend just put her through and she is trying to cope with her feelings. Fourth Scene- After the girl puts on her headphones , she goes to her phone and turns on a song. This is the part where the music will come in and begin playing. She will begin playing the song “Save Your Tears” by The Weeknd, one of her favorite songs. Fift...

1. How does your product use or  challenge conventions AND how does it  represent social groups or issues?   My music video challenge convention’s because we worked with what we had are video used a local park instead of any fancy sets and my iPhone camera instead of anything fancy. Our props were all objects we had already owned. My video showed a biracial couple which isn’t always represented in the media. Also shows how jumping to conclusions isn’t always the answer our video shows the girlfriend upset cause she thinks the boyfriend is cheating. However he explains himself and tells her he was really going to propose which is why he was being sneaky.                                                                                             ...

Genre Decision Blog

 Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog, today I wanted to share with you my group's decision on what genre our final task will be.  The first genre we considered was a comedic genre and this was a genre we spent a lot of time looking at. When looking at it, we liked how comedy and comedic decision is spread throughout the entire media,  for example, you have the comedic and goofy movements with the camera shaking and going upside down. As we reviewed it more, our thoughts changed about the props and we originally didn't like the use of props but as we reviewed we began to see the comedic purposes that props play and that purpose,  it can be the actor using it to do something silly or really anything, and we also liked how we would use diegetic sound like laughing to get the genre across even more. But, there was a really big dealbreaker when it came to part of this genre and that was the dialogue aspect. The reason this was a dealbreaker is because we thought it...
