Sound video feedback and learner response

1) Type up your feedback from your teacher.

*The opening is superb-edited to the beat, clearly works as parallel and a good selection of clips.
*Parallel section worked brilliantly - fantastic pace to the soundtrack and the video editing. Some felt almost edited to the beat which shows how parallel the Music and images were.

2) Type up your feedback from fellow students - you can summarise key points if several students give you similar feedback.
WWW:
*Music matches with first few videos, good parallel.

*Brilliant action scenes good editing- edited unclear contrapuntal, fit too well.

*Good use of parallel sound.

*Contrapuntal fit  well with tom and Jerry

EBI:

The contrapuntal section didn't work quite so effectively - two different ideas but neither as quite flited as a contrapuntal effect. I wonder if the music didn't lend itself to contrapuntal video?

Unclear what the contrapuntal is.

3) Now reflect on your work and write your own evaluation of your video. Write a 'What went well' (WWW) paragraph and a paragraph for 'Even Better If' (EBI) underneath the rest of your feedback.

I think what went well with my sound task is that I successfully managed to ace the parallel side of the first 30 secs of my video and that I managed to match to the beat as well in my sound video. What I could have done better was that for the contrapuntal sound of the side I should have made it way more opposite and more funny as I felt like I didn't manage to successfully get the right response from my audience when the other 30 secs of my video came up on sound. 

4) Learner response: compare your own video against your evaluation of the top three videos in the class. Whose did you think was best and why? How could you have improved your own video?
Top 3:
1) Anas
2) Matas
3) Cassius

I think Cassius had the best sound video as he used a combination of funny videos at the right times in his video which then he successfully managed to get the right response out from his audience. 

5) Finally, what have you learned about the importance of sound to film and TV through this week's work?

Sound plays a big part in TV as it helps set the scene adding depth and texture to the narrative ensuring the audience understands what their watching. It also helps the story unfold and makes the readers question or even predict what happens next using the choice of sound.

  1) Find a distinctive  still image  and write an analysis of the mise-en-scene. Use each of the aspects you've learned in the lesson. The use of the high key lighting around Tom Cruise in this image connotes that the room he is in is all high tech and futuristic cause of how brightly lit the room is. Furthermore, the use of him wearing all black connotes that he's doing something sneaky and stealthy as the colour black usually shows mystery or death. The use of the wide shot also shows the whole background and the body placement that Tom Cruise is in which shows him balancing his weight from off the floor with a rope holding him up from the floor which could connote in this image an intense moment in time. The use of the juxtaposition between the room being white and Tom Cruise wearing black makes him look in the image more sharper which can show that everyone's eyes should be on him and what he's doing.  2) Find  TWO  film or TV extracts on YouTube from ...

  This week's work requires Media  Factsheet #69: Music Video . You'll need to log in to Google using your Greenford Google account to access this.  Read the factsheet and answer the following 10 questions: 1) What is the purpose of a music video? The purpose of a music video is to sell products, the most obvious  of which is the song featured in the video. However, other connected  products are also marketed by a music video. 2) How has the digital age changed the production and distribution of music videos? However,  the development of new media technologies meant that music  videos, and the songs along with them, were more widely available  at any time. Videos could be uploaded to video hosting sites like  YouTube and viewed using portable media devices such as mobile  phones and iTouch devices, allowing audiences to see the video  and hear the song whenever and wherever they liked. 3) Which three major record labels are beh...
