Welcome to My AICE Medias Studies Blog!

Media Studies is important to knowing what all the elements that are included in different types of media. I always consume media, watching movies, reading books, social media, etc. and using my phone or laptop to access it. These media products are the most accessible to everyone and that why it's so easy to consume media. Before getting into media studies, I never thought about all the elements that were included into media: costumes, characters, sound, lighting, etc. I really only watch it never really inspected it. Before media studies I never thought about the technology around us that helps us consume media: smartphones, laptops, desktops, television, books, magazines, etc. Another thing is how long media is (books, radios, etc.)

I will be documenting my own film opening. I would like to do a horror/ thriller film opening. This would go for teenagers that like horror/ thriller movies, I chose to do this genre because it's one of my favorites outside of horror. The theme would be teenage murder or something along the lines of this. I would need a few people and phones and editing software. My film would be ready to release in around April when it is due.

For me to finish and complete this film as well as blog our steps. My teammates and I would need motivation, hard work, time, and creativity. Motivation would have us working hard to make sure our film is good and what we need to finish this project. But we won't have motivation if we don't have creativity to plan it out. The time is the amount of time we are using to make it, we have a few months, and we just have to use it wisely and not procrastinate.

Preliminary Exercise 3: Mise En Scene Codes and Genre Conventions Bubble Diagram

Genre in film is the type of film/ theme of the film, and for audiences knowing what the genre of a film helps them figure out if they are going to like it or not. Three genres that I usually enjoy watch is horror (usually has a dark disturbing subject matter), comedy (typically emphasizes the humor in a film), and Romance (focuses on a romantic relationship and story). These can be involved in the same movie which is why I really enjoy it. From the media it shows what the audience enjoy and once they know the background, they can be more engaged into the film. We were to pick a genre and movies that can go with the genre and fill out the customized bubble chart that goes along with it. I learned many components that go along with the genre "horror". I worked by myself, and I knew since I enjoy art stuff so much it was going to be a better assignment. To represent the horror in my poster I drew Penny Wise's iconic red balloon, Jason's mask, and the tree from the conju...

Introduction to Mise En Scene Codes Organizer

Elements of Mise En Scene Mise en scene is examples of signs: camerawork, sound, editing. Knowing these signs are important to a film to further develop the overall style and quality of it. Mise en scene is what makes up the film, it helps develops the theme of the film, and it makes for better outcome of a film. These pictures show the information that develops the movie further on. The mise en scene that is shown tells us that this movie is rustic and old but still modern in a way with a horror color scheme (dark colors and red for blood).

Camera Movement: Video Ideas Storyboard

Camera Movement For this project my teammates and I had to complete a video storyboard helping to explain what camera movement was. in the process we found out that camera movement is the perspective of camera changing by moving the camera around. For this storyboard we made nine different scenes, and we are making six videos from the planned-out scenes during class. Each of the storyboards we had to have a different camera movement and had to include the action line, shot size, camera angles and the framing for the scene. I was in charge of writing down the ideas the team had and then sketching it to make these scenes come to life.
