Media Language

Below you can find how I used combinations of technical elements in my Music Video (MV) to create meaning. This blogpost is written by me (Kalista).

 

Self Reflection: Through out the process of analyzing media language I actually been quite enjoying the task as this reminds me of section a of as level where we should analyze the extract in terms of technical codes and conventions. This has also deepened my critical thinking skills as I realized more in depth on how the texts creates deeper meaning once I am analyzing it. Additionally, I also figured things that are unintentionally being set such as the same clothings that the main guy uses as our inspiration which is the scene from a show 'Euphoria S2 x E3' This made me realized how we should really pay attention to detail. Moreover, doing this blog has enhance my ability to reflect on me and my teammates creative decision while considering audience perspective. I now better understand how as a producer we really need to think on how to encode messages effectively so that the audience can decode them as we intended. If the meaning is not clearly presented the audience might receive different ideas. Therefore, this experience has helped me to be more aware on how the small changes such as costume, lighting, camera angle and movements can impact the overall message.
