Hello Media Studies

Organising and time management skillsI’m personally pretty good at organising and making sure I get everything done however sometimes I am wrong and have to try fit it in but I believe I work better under pressure.

Creative skill When it comes to creative skill I have my moments of being really creative and coming up with good idea but sometime they’re not really realistic ideas. I like coming up with interesting ideas that others may not have thought about.

Research and planning – I would say my planning is okay normally I have a good idea of where I want to be and the things I have to do along the way. On the other hand my research abilities are not the greatest so I hope taking media A-level will improve upon this.

Transferable skills – I hope during my 2 years in media I will learn some valuable skills that I can take to the work place such as; experience with computers, Photoshop, cameras, editing and teamwork.

Technology – I would say my knowledge around a computer is pretty good but not amazing so I am looking forward to becoming even better with these devices. In the years to come computers, laptops and tech are just going to be come more common and a requirement in the workplace.

 

I am a Media Prosumer

In my media bubble I added different types of media which provide me with entertainment, information and social interaction on a regular basis. I use a large range of Media for example I use Netflix, Instagram, movies,TV shows and many more. Me using these media platforms creates my media identity. With me watching and being surrounded with all this media I know what will catch the eye and people with the same interests as me will catch on to.

The categories include:

  • Video streaming service
  • TV shows
  • Podcasts/Radio
  • Content creators
  • Music Platforms
  • social media
  • Movies

There’s many different types of media not only entertainment. There are;

  • Entertainment
  • Social interaction
  • personal identity
  • Information

I will make my magazine entertaining, socially interaction or informative in one to maximise the engagement. So after being surrounded by media for a while now I understand that my magazine will have to be bright to catch the media consumers attention, I’ll also need to choose a font which relates to my magazines subject and what its about.
