  Demographics and Psychographics : blog tasks 1) How do media companies classify (groups) potential audiences for their products? (think about demographics )       Advertisers have traditionally classified people into the following groups: AB – Managerial and professional  C1 – Supervisory and clerical  C2 – Skilled manual  DE – Unskilled manual and unemployed 2) What are the names of the seven different psychographic groups that Young and Rubicam use to profile audiences ? The Aspirirer, The Reformer, The Mainstream, The Resigned, The Succeder, The Struggler, The Explorer 3) What psychographic group or groups do YOU belong in? Think about your own interests and lifestyle and explain your decision. Remember, you may fit into two or three different groups!  If I had to chose between the groups I would have to say I'm a mix of a Resigned and the Reformer. Look at this edition of Heat magazine (one of our named CSP's when we study Magazines) 4)...

1) Pick three aspects of camera movement in the Minority Report clip. Identify the type of camera movement and write about why the director chose to use that camera movement in the scene and what effect it has on the audience. 0:59  to 1:04  is a pan, following the (I'm guessing protagonist) running away from some sort of organisation that may be law enforcement. A pan is usually used to follow movement. In some faster cases it can create a feeling of action or drama.The director most likely chose to use this camera movement to build up the action to make up for the lack of anticipation in the music. (The fast paced beat that appears in most action scenes). 1:04 - 1:14  is a crane, following the law enforcement surrounding the protagonist for reasons we as the audience don't know yet. Crane movements can pan, track or ‘swoop’ in or out as required show large, epic scenes of dramatic action. I think that the director chose to use a crane movement because t...

  WWW: Deeqsan, interesting that the last TV show you consumed was Doctor Who, this is great, as this TV show is one of your close-study products that we will study at the end of Year 10. You are attempting to include Media subject terminology in your responses e.g. in your ‘Denotation and Connotation’ and ‘Mise-en-scene’ blog posts. Keep this up!   LR: 1. Create a new blogpost on your Media blog called ‘Blog feedback and Learner Response’. Copy and paste this WWW/EBI feedback into your blogpost 2. Reflect on your first month of Med ia. What do you feel is your strongest piece of work so far? Key Concepts film poster analysis What is your weakest? Introduction to Photoshop because I only did one parrot instead of two, but that's mostly it. What specific skills or knowledge do you need to develop over the rest of the course? I'm not sure, maybe more paragraph structures when I'm giving my analysis.

1) Explain what type of shot it is and what meanings or effect they have on the audience.   The camera shot in this scene is Over the shoulder. The meaning it has on the audience is that it's shifting the main focus to the computer where they are having a conversation.   1) Explain what type of shot it is and what meanings or effect they have on the audience.   The camera shot is a Medium close up. It shows Harriet as the most important person/being in her location because she's larger than the landscape and everything else is blurred/unfocused. 1) Explain what type of shot it is and what meanings or effect they have on the audience. The shot used in this scene is a two shot, I can tell they're of the same importance because of how much space they take in the frame and it's probably important for them to be presented in a two shot so audiences can tell the two have a link or relation. Pick one camera angle that is used in the scene, take a screenshot and explain the eff...

  Choose THREE aspects of mise-en-scene (e.g. costume, lighting and setting) and write a short paragraph for each about the denotation and connotation and what is communicated to the audience. For example:  Costume: The character at the start is wearing a white lab coat. This suggests to the audience... Lighting:  During the start of the clip we see the lighting as really dim and brighter in the elevator, maybe because the story is trying to paint his only way out of the building positively. But when the scientist looks up and sees the monster above him, the light flickers and inevitably breaks plunging him into darkness. I'd say this symbolises how the last of his hope of escape has been extinguished and the fact light usually symbolises life, we could assume the darkness implies the monster got him and he's dead. Setting:   At the beginning of the clip the show starts with a sterile lab environment where every corridor looks the exact same. We could infe...

  Write a s hort description of the type of colour palette you chose to represent from the list above and what image you chose and why?  I chose winter from the color palette, the colors I got from the picture are a mix of dark and light colors for Pink, green, blue, purple and peach. I chose the snowy forest picture because it was the first thing that popped up on google when I typed "winter". Give a brief description of how you found the task? Did you find any parts difficult? If you could do anything differently, what would you do and why? I didn't find the task difficult except for some technical difficulties at the start, if I could do anything differently I'd probably try to do a second parrot.
