I found that it was a lot easier to do the final product as I learnt all the
skills and techniques from when i created the preliminary task. For example, I learnt how to
work around serif so I knew what tools I would need to use for my final product
to make things easier. for example, i learnt how to add music and cut it so it would fit perfectly with each section. i then learnt how to add different transition effect and cut shots to build the tension in my final media product. I also learnt better ways of recording the original
footage for the final product, because some of my shots were a
bit jumpy and messy in the preliminary task. i knew what angles and levels i needed to take the footage at so i could get the best shot. i also learnt more shots that i could include in the final product as well.

Looking back at your
preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from
it to the full product?
evaluation question 6
EVALUATION QUESTION 6
What have you learnt about
technologies from the process of constructing this product?
I learnt how to use Serif which gives me skills to edit and develop
clips by using the trim to get rid of unwanted parts of the clips and how to
change effects, such as speed to slow down sections of the product which
automatically builds tension.
I also added the music on to the footage which
helped me to learn how to take a piece of music from YouTube and
to convert it online by YouTube converter and then using serif to
edit it so it stopped and started at the right times.
Another technology
skill learnt was how to film different shots and how to get the right angle for
the sections. by getting the right camera angles, i was able to show exactly what the audience needed to see.

EVALUATION QUESTION 5
How did you attract/address your audience?
How did you attract/address your audience?
I used young characters in my media product which straight away gives
teenagers/young adults an unsaid relationship and they could imagine themselves
as the characters to feel the same affect that they do in the film. I also use
creepy music which I think will draw the attention of young viewers. Also, I
didn't use a script or any voice in my media product. This leaves open
questions which probably attract younger viewers more because they have a wider
imagination which would then lead to them wanting to watch on.

EVALUATION QUESTION 4
Who would be the audience
for your media product?
The audience that i was focused on for my opening title sequence was teenagers
and young adults.
Teenagers and young adults have a wider imagination so are open to different story lines that link tot the idea of the unrealistic side to horror movies. they also like the idea of the unknown so my media product would draw their attention. most people believe that horrors are aimed mostly at males, however i believe that horror films are open to both genders, especially my media product. i think my media product wouldn't be acceptable to people under 15 due to the content involved.

EVALUATION QUESTION 2
How does your media product represent particular social groups?
In my opening title sequence, I haven't focused directly on a specific social group; however, I did look at targeting teenagers and young adults. This is because teenagers like to investigate the unknown and the unrealistic features in life. This links to what horrors usually present, which is someone exploring the unknown.

EVALUATION QUESTION 1
In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
The genre that I chose to do was horror, so I had to make sure that the sound, mise-en-scene and editing fitted this specific genre throughout the whole 2 minutes. In most horror films, the setting is always dark and either really small or really big. I decided to go for the small space to make it look more like the character was trapped. In my horror opening title sequence, the setting was based in a small, dark lit bedroom with one victim character and one attacker character. The music that horrors usually consist of are either creepy, tense music or loud, fast and includes bangs and cashing sound affects. The sound that i used was creepy background music that added tension and a sense of the unknown to the piece which played throughout the whole two minutes. i also added sound effects such as creaky door and heart beat to build the tension and to add interest to the piece. These are forms and conventions that you would usually see in a horror film that I have developed in my opening title sequence.
