Classroom discussion ( focus group )

Image
When we pitched our very brief idea to the class we generally stated we was going to create a campaign advert all about general stereotypes , we said we was going to make it inclusive for everybody for example all different backgrounds and ethnicities in one video  in the focus group we said that we was going to have them put up signs individually one by one and then rip them in half on camera , after pitching our smashing stereotypes idea we then got feedback back from majority of the classroom asking questions such as " how is your idea going to stand out due to the fact this has been done many times before " my response to this was we were going to add a twist to the advert we wasn't trying to give too much away that day , because we wanted to keep it a secret until the actual video came out . In my opinion the video would be different because we would of added different components to make versatile. What I have learned from this focus group is to most definitely pla...

Smashing Stereotypes Advert Notes

Brainstorming  Advert - About smashing stereotypes - the idea about don't judge a book by its cover .  The idea is to get different females and males to come in front of the camera and say something impactful that would definitely shock the audience we are going to create a timelapse of videos of different people . The reason behind us choosing this idea is because its a good way to get our message across about not everyone is how they appear to be it's all about smashings stereotypes , the idea is to get different colours and backgrounds and efficiencies . The professional media products that inspired us was an advert on colourism and dark skin people here is a link This video expresses colourism , how people prefer the idea of light skin females over dark skinned females , in our advert we will be showing more of a diversity and difference in colour and behaviour, it's more about equality instead of indifference . Our idea is mainly based on forming a cam...

Monotage

Kuleshov effect - It is a mental phenomenon by which viewers derive more meaning from the interaction of two sequential shots than from a single shot in isolation . Kulerdsohc effect is basically editing , how different shots are put together to build up into a physical response, not everything is as it seems to be . For example an emotion can be shown by that particular person reacting to something but they may not even be in the room , its based on how everything has been put together . E.g. a man could be looking at nothing and could be smiling but if you take a shot of a women , exposing her aspects of her body , that man smiling could be taken as him being a pervert , but it is all in the act of editing , and how the sequence is up for interruption for the audience . Like they say not everything is as it appears to be you just have to look at the bigger picture , this links to montage , because you can create an alternative meaning by editing . editing can be known as creatin...
