Own ideas for my magazine :

Front Page : Medium close-up shot of a celebrity (actor) to engage the audience, and by having an influential person/celebrity on the front cover it will create an interest to my millennial audience. This celebrity will be shown to be playing a homeless man in his next movie, (which will be a realist film by Ken Loach).

Genre: Docudrama (Expository Documentary), and there is a sense of genre hybridity as the character's stories I will explore have elements of romance, and action. This further engages my younger audience, as it keeps the narrative interesting and diverse. I will explore the element of drama using the diegetic sound of the residents I interview, instead of visually showing their stories. I will use a dramatic soun...

Introduction :

My name is Lola Robson and I am a student at Hills Road Sixth Form College and this is my coursework for my A Level Media Studies. My main objective is to construct an audio-visual sequence from a tv show, and to create associated print materials to promote the show. My audio visual has to be 2mins-3mins long, and my print material has to be 3pages long and consisting of a front page and double page spread. During the process of creating my media texts I must outline my aims and intentions for my work and undertake research and planning during my production process. I have different requirements I must reach in order to produce my work, and all my content must be my own, (apart from logos or barcodes). My audio visual and print material must be for a factional or fictional tv show, and must be either for ITV or Channel 5. In order to gain some understanding of my task, and to begin research I have looked at the most common shows on Channel5 and ITV. This will allow me to create...
