  Statement of Intent I will be advertising  the Naked healthy drink with the slogan of "A sip of nature". The campaign for both adverts includes a call to action of purchasing the naked drink; however, the campaign will also have the idea of reconnecting with nature. I plan to meet the brief by creating two 40-60 second adverts aimed at teenagers and young adults that focus on a healthy lifestyle. My narrative in advertisement one will include the main character who is relatable as she is going to be an "everyman" character that is overly dependent on technology but after drinking Naked begins to view the natural environment and admire it. In advertisement two, the character will be the same but this time begins with being overworked and stressed by school then drinks Naked and again connects with nature and feels relaxed. I will include a tracking shot ,pack shots and match cuts within both adverts. Both adverts will have multiple shots of the main character (hero...

WWW: There is planning in terms of your coursework statement of intent and products, but I cannot see preliminary planning on your blog – please ensure that you complete all planning before proceeding to production work. Your production and narrative are clear and demonstrates good understanding of editing process. It is likely to appeal to the target audience. EBI: The main issue is the length of your preliminary exercise; it is way below the expected length, and I think you would agree it feels more like a Instagram Reel or YouTube Short rather than a commercial advert on TV or streaming channel. You also need to ensure that you include a range of sound (diegetic and non-diegetic), and a slogan. LR: Complete the missing work as outlined above and post your completed preliminary exercise to your blog once it’s uploaded. As your learner response, write what you are planning to make for your real coursework. Will you choose to make the 2 video adverts or 3 print adverts? Explain your de...

1) Write a 100 word statement of intent explaining what you are going to make for your preliminary exercise.   -For the preliminary exercise I will create a video that is around 30 seconds long advertising the health drink Naked. This avert will follow the narrative of a teenage girl (hero) who spends too much time inside on screens but then has the Naked drink and begins to go outside. This promotes a healthy lifestyle to the audience who are mostly mainstream, the ages between 15-30 years old , likely enjoy hobbies like gaming and sport and likely working or middle class. I will include a match cut and have a fast paced editing style. There will be diegetic sound of the bottle opening and non-diegetic music in the background. 2)  Casting : Who will be in your preliminary exercise advert? -Me 3) Plan your locations: Where you will film your preliminary exercise?  - Bedroom+Park 4) Write your shot list: every shot you plan to film. This needs to be fa...

 1) 26/42 marks, grade 7 -WWW: Overall strong assessment with good knowledge and understanding of CSPs in this assessment e.g. Tatler and Black Widow. -EBI: More developed analysis e.g. subject terminology and theories  for example Q3 (narrative features). 2)Typography -  Upper case and bold – connotations of the important, powerful message of the image and copy. Photographic Codes - Long shot shows the whole power of the body and the effort involved in pushing the  tyre. Verbal codes (use of language) - The text is positioned over the top of the tyre to signify the challenge and create  synergy between the image and the message in the text. 3) -The structure of the narrative: it follows a linear structure and features versions of iconic actors from the glamorous era of Hollywood (a CGI Audrey Hepburn and a  lookalike for Gregory Peck) associated with sophistication and desirability. -There is disequilibrium at the start when the village is associated with...

Research: health drink TV adverts  Innocent 1) What is the  unique selling point  of the product?  purity as the name innocent suggests this and the fact that they market it as pure fresh fruit . 2) What  audience  do you think this is aimed at? Add as much detail as possible (e.g. demographics, psychographics) and explain  why . I think this is aimed at children to young adults because of its charitable marketing and its packaging is very simplistic and has bright colours which would appeal to a child . I also believe that their target may also be in the psychographic group of the succeeder as it shows them  being goal oriented in helping people and living a healthy lifestyle as this drink is healthy. 3) What do you notice about the  technical construction  of the advert? Pick out one thing you like about the advert from camerawork, editing, sound or mise-en-scene. You may want to focus on TV adve...

  Audience 1) Who is the target audience for Doctor Who? Do you think it has changed since 1963? The target audience is mainstream , people who like sci-fi. I think it hasn't changed that much as it is still mainstream but due to the new diversity implemented everyone could see themselves in the show therefor the target audience is larger as rather than an old, white male doctor different ethnicities, genders and ages have been the doctor in recent times. 2) What audience pleasures are offered by Doctor Who - An Unearthly Child? Apply Blumler and Katz's Uses and Gratifications theory to the episode. Make sure you provide specific examples from the episode to support your ideas.

Language an Contexts 1) Write a summary of the notes from our in-class analysis of the episode. You can use your own notes from the screening in class or this Google document of class notes (you'll need your GHS Google login).  Camerawork and sound: The hum in the beginning of the episode creates mystery and illustrates the sci-fi genre Mise-en-scene: The Doctor's costume is out of place (odd hat and scarf) to convey his strange and alien behaviour Narrative and genre: sci-fi genre , character theory- Susan is the princess while the doctor could be the villain/ anti-hero of this episode , no equilibrium at the end as it leaves on a cliff-hanger . 2) How can we apply narrative theories to this episode of   Doctor Who ?  Todorov's Equilibrium: Susan is at school but teachers are worried about her , augment with The Doctor outside the Tardis , there is no resolution for this episode.
