THE END

EVALUATION

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

I learnt how to use a video camera and enhancing my shots to make them look better and be of better quality. I also learnt how to use iMovie on an Apple Mac to edit my footage I took and make it more interesting by adding effects and transitions and titles. I also learnt how to cut clips together and make one flowing film. Using iMovie was a new experience, which I enjoyed.

EVALUATION

How did you attract/address your audience?

I used an opening title to tell the audience what the film is called.I also used a interesting opening scence so the audience wanted to keep watching the film.I also chose a backing track to the film which is well known so the people watching the film enjoyed it more.

EVALUATION

Who would be the audience for your media product?

The audience for my film would be people(most likely boys/men)who enjoy watching action films and comedy films for entertainment purposes.The target audience is people aged 15 and older because my film is about drug dealing so young children will not want to watch it because it could scare and upset them.

EVALUATION

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

My film would be used as a trailer for the actual film because there is a lot more to the story.After the trailer comes out on TV people will see it and want to go watch it or buy the film.The film could be put in cinemas and on DVD or Video.This would be good because people who don’t have DVD or Video players can go watch the film at the cinema. 

EVALUATION

How does your media product represent particular social groups?

My film represents gangsters and drug dealers; this was done by using the stereotype of what a gangster, so the audience could understand that the actors are playing drug dealers/gangsters. Also the film shows you what can happen if you deal drugs etc because its bad, and it may lead to bad things happening (like with Dwayne in my film being killed by the police) so it teaches the audience a lesson. It represents more lower class people because the actors are playing drug dealers who have to get money by selling drugs and if they were higher class then they would not have to sell drugs for a living.
