5 Institutional Research

-

In this post I will be researching the media institution linked to my chosen brief, paying particular attention to the type of company they are and the type of media products they produce.  I will also be looking into how the company ethos is reflected in their products, this will give me a ideas on how I can incorporate this into my own production of both the main task and the website. I think by understanding the institution linked to my chosen brief, it will enable me to produce a media text that follows and reflects their style, ideologies and ethos more effectively.

The company for this set of research who I will use to provide copyright for the soundtrack in my video, as stated in the brief, is Warner Music Group, otherwise known as WMG. This institution is known for being responsible for content produced by many mainstream artists such as Ed Sheeran and Cardi B, and even older artists and bands such as Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Coldplay.

The purpose of this blog is to identify different potential shooting locations for my music video.

In this Intertextuality research task, I will be exploring how a wide range of media products in the category of 'Music video' use intertextuality in order to appeal content to a wider range of audiences, as oppose to just one. In addition to this, I will also be highlighting what makes these references to other media texts effective. For reference and purely as an example, here are some examples of intertextuality in Stranger Things: The light shone on 11 which is an almost identical to the take from E.T Where 11 is dressed in Nancy's clothes with a wig, which is what happens to E.T, to make the alien appear more 'normal' or 'human'.

4 Media Theory Research

-
In this post I am going to be exploring the ways in which a range of media theories are able to be applied to chosen media texts. As a result of doing this, I will be able to independently make an initial decision in terms of which media theory I am most likely to use embed well within the production of my music video. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/u/0/d/166y8JCXwhdmpjnT2Ah1Z8q9TIYxPdk2Z=w402-h300-p-k-nu-iv1 “Somebody to you” by The Vamps ft Demi Lovato is a brilliant example of where Van Zoonen’s Feminist theory is displayed in the media. In the music video, there is an obvious discourse presenting the boys as masculine, sporty and stereotypically ‘attractive’, which is used to entice their target audience of younger, teenaged females to watch their music video. On the other hand, the girls in the music video are portrayed to be pretty, vulnerable, slightly clueless, or in other words ‘dumb blondes’. They are also objectified to be seen as a decoration, which can be identified in ...
