Critical Perspectives: Section A

In class we have begun to analyse and evaluate the process that we have made from our transition between AS to A2. I have had to describe and evaluate my skills development over the course of mine and my teams production work from Foundation to Advanced Portfolio. Thye focus of this must be on skills development,and the questions will require me to adapt this to one orn  two specific product practises.The list of practises to which the question will relate as follows:

• Digital technology
• Creativity
• Research and Planning
• Post Production
• Using Conventions from media texts

Using Conventions in Real Media Texts

In my own project music was key to the whole video as it helped set the mood for the scenes, the music was veryu dark  to replicate the dark and moodiness of the scene itself it also started very slow but as the intesity of the video began rachet up, so did the music lending to the atmosphere of the video as a whole.
