Evaluation Question 1



Evaluation Question No.1
In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
Our genre fits into the documentary category. With the summer riots happening last year, it is a real life event, looking back at what happened. It fits perfectly as there is plenty of looking back, interviews with people aswell. The opening sequence shows scenes at the heart of the bad scenes last August.
We decided to put Plan B’s new song which is about the riots of last summer. This song goes into great detail to show what happened and his opinion on the event. Also the song represents many youth’s they agree with it. Also the genre is rap music this is the type of music which the culprits listen to.
We decided to interview some of the people sitting down this showed a more laidback approach it meant they would be more comfortable to explain their views and would be in a much more relaxed atmosphere. Other people that were interviewed were stood up this was just as they were only speaking a few words on how they felt rather than going straight into major detail.
We challenged media conventions by using footage from the riots and then have speaking over it. Also while the music played we made sure it connected with what was going on the footage which is did perfectly. By using this media convention and technique it should get more people to watch and is has a more professional look while it includes music which they can relate to and acknowledge the artist who is playing.
