Week 21 in AICE Media Studies

Introduction

     We created a poster for our film and discussed our creative film reflections. 

What I Did

    We started off Tuesday's class with a discussion on our creative critical reflections. Ms. Pistocchi
went over everything we need to include in them and her expectations of us. 

      After we broke off into our groups. we decided to make the poster for our film introduction since we could not work on our creative critical reflection.

What I Learned

     I learned about the creative critical reflection. The reflection is made up of four questions;

• How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues?
• How does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text?
• How did your production skills develop throughout this project?
• How did you integrate technologies – software, hardware and online – in this project?

     I also learned how to isolate a subject in Photoshop and darken the background. Then, I used the paintbrush to lighten part of the subjects face, creating a spotlight effect.
