Russell and Katy - 300 words.

The recently newlyweds couple Russell Brand and Katy Perry held their modern Indian style wedding the forest in India, after Russell proposed to Katy on their holiday after a three month romance. However a very dangerous Tiger, which has killed three people, gate crashed their wedding, leaving workers to try and fight it away.  Thankfully all 85 guests were safe, and all workers were not harmed. When it comes to gifts Russell bought Katy a female Bengal tiger, costing him thousands of pounds, which represents Katy’s personality. Also Russell bought Katy a ruby which has “special powers”. In return Katy bought Russell a baby elephant, which also shows Russell’s personality. After they held their ceremony at Armani Khas. Unfortunately Katy’s best friend Rhianna could not make it due to work commitments, however Jonathon Ross and wife Jane Goldman attended. Katy wore a blue sari whilst Russell wore a nude-coloured Kurt. Also all 85 guests, who include all friends and family, kept up the traditional Indian theme by wearing Indian clothing and listening to traditional Indian music. At the ceremony both Katy and Russell sat on two gold thrones to make their speeches. Also the guests were treated to traditional Indian performances which include professional dancers, fire jugglers, fire eaters, snake charmers and dance troupers. The guests were also treated to a traditional Indian and Vegan feast, however the workers got asked to leave the ceremony whilst the Indian and vegan feast was taking place.

Graphs For Questionnaire




The graphs represent the questionnaire I created. The graphs show me key information about my target audience. This can then help me create an audience profile which would show the key interests and basic information I would need to know.

Audience Profile - Questionnaire

The average reader is a teenager who is interested in fashion, music and socializing. They are all females aged 14 and over, and still in education. They would be group E readers therefore they would not get much income, as they may get a certain amount of money each week from their parents or guardian. They are most interested in the latest gossip and what new trends are in that season. They would shop on the high street and would also shop online as they spend about 1-2 hours on the internet a day.

She is most interested in listening to R ‘n’ B music, however she would most likely to listen to music on free websites such as YouTube as she would only spend around £5 a month on music. She has up to date technology at home and would most likely to use the Internet for socializing on websites such as Face-Book, Msn Messenger and Twitter.

Fashion and up to date trends play a big part in their lives. They roughly spend between £50 and £100 a month on clothing and keeping up with the fashion trends. However they would mostly go shopping on the high street as they are group E readers and rely on money per week from their parents or guardian.

Annotation of girl.


This is my annotation of the singing girl. The aim of this task was to stereotypically say what I though this girl would be interested in by looking at the picture. For example the image shows that she is holding a microphone, so I thought a hobby she would enjoy doing is singing, or maybe she took singing lesson. Also on the picture the girl is wearing bright coloured clothing. This could show that she is quite young, as younger girls intend to wear brighter clothing. However it could also represent that she may be interested in fashion and dressing up.
Out of the categories, I would put her in the E category. This is because she is still a child, meaning she would still be in school. This means that she would not have a income which means she cannot be any higher than being in the E category.

Moon Board And Audience Profile - Business man.

Travel mood board.

This is the mood board I created which is aimed towards travelling. The target audience for this mood board is family related. The main decision I used was colour co-ordinating. I want the magazine to look attractive towards families, therefore by using bright colours such as baby blue and pale yellows it will attract attention and viewers towards buying the magazine. I also wanted to include fun images such as bike riding on the beach and water slides. This is because it will attract the younger members in the family and would make them excited towards buying the magazine. However I also included images such as sunbathing and relaxing on the beach. This is because it may attract attention form the older member in the family. Overall I wanted a few images to represent different ages in the family.

Moonboard - Children's magazine.

This is my mood board I created which is aimed towards children.The decisions I made was choosing suitable images. For example I decided to choose bright, fun and exciting images because children would get excited when they see the bright colours, and they would automatically want the magazine. Also by using these bright colours it will catch the young childrens attention more ratherthan using dull colours. Another decision I made was to include images which were aimed towards different age groups. For example Cbeebies is aimed towards very young children, whereas Disney Channel is aimed towards young teenagers. This is because the magazine has a wide audience range, therefore different images are needed. Furthermore using a wide range of images will draw more people to the magazine. I also decided not to include a dominant background because I thought if I included bold backgrounds in the magazine, it might distract the childrens attention. This will then mean that the magazine will not reach its purpose. Also if I included bold backgrounds it might make the younger children confused, because there might be to much going on, on that page.

Video Editing

In my video I editited I used a wide range of music and effects. For example I used background music to add tenstion to the video whereas I used effects like a 'scream' and a 'bang' for certain parts in my video, to make the video more interesting and more exciting. In my video I used both diagetic and non-diagetic sounds in my video. For example the disgetic sounds I used were sound like a door opening and footsteps. These are diagetic because the sound is coming from the actual scene that you shot. Whereas non-diagetic is background music because you add that to the video after you have shot it.

Horror Editing

This is my video I edited. To edit my video I used Premiere Pro. In my video I used different effects and techniques. One of the effects I used was Time code. Time code makes my video look like a CCTV camera. Another effect I used was making my video black and white. I think that by making it balck and white will make it seem more like a CCTV camera, but it was also add tension.

Storyboarding

 

These are my storyboards for the film we watched in a previous lesson. By creating these storyboards I learnt the different camera movements which are pan, dolly, crab, tilt and boom. I also learnt the different camera shots which are close up, extreme close up, medium shot, wide shot, extreme wide shot and low angle shot. By learning these shots it will help create an image of what the film may look like, and will give the people creating the film a guidance.

Battle of the finalists.
The x-factor is coming to an end, as our four finalists Matt Cardle, Rebecca Fergerson, Cher Lloyd and One Direction battle it out. The X-factor judges are desperate for their own act to win a recording contract; it’s a must to have the perfect song choices, as one mistake could lead to eviction, meaning their dreams coming to an end. Talking of eviction, what have our evictees been up too? Well the most recent person evicted is Mary Braun and it looks like a high for her. She’s doing television shows such as ‘Day Break’ and got promotions coming up, the future looks bright. However ‘Aiden Grimshaw’ one of the amazing singers of this series, got evicted early on hasn’t done anything since his appearance on the show, he is not even coming on the 2011 X-factor tour, maybe this is an end for his singing career?  Talking of the contestants why doing they accept criticism with Simon Cowell but have the courage to talk back to other judges on the panel such as Danni Minongue and Louis Walsh. Maybe because it’s Simon’s show, they feel they need to show him more respect?
