Representation

Here's the lesson we did on representation. It's focused on gender portrayals, but you can explore the representation of any relelvant social group. You do not have to focus on one group, and you look at various mediums of media (music videos, digipak covers, magazine portrayals, in the news, etc.).

Muvi Spy Cam

Okay, here is the next piece of kit we have... the MUVI Spy Cam. The quality of the picture is pretty poor, but there are certainly some effects it can be used for. It has a clip on it, so perhaps it might be good for chase scenes. The ol' "Shaky Cam" (a la Blair Witch Project) can be used to create a disoriented effect, and is useful for first person "Point of View" shots.

Check out this vid of Mr Egan beating me up. This is not a fake video... I just happened to have the camera running when he attacked me.

Equipment

Okay, I'm going to put up a series of posts to outline the equipment in the media department that we have at our disposal.

First up, is the smoke machine...

To Do List...

Okay, here is the list of things that could (should) be a part of your research and planning process. As you can see there is quite a lot to be done, so stop reading this and get cracking with the work.

Remember to be creative with your use of interactive media.
