I am excited at the future of Media Studies, and the thought of creating a blog site excites me, as I have always been interested in aspects of Media, such as photography and film making. Luckily, I am familiar with using the internet, and use blog sites such as Tumblr already.
The thing which excites me the most is the practical side of media, such as editing and creating the final project (an opening to a thriller style film). With that being said, I also think I will enjoy the theory side of media, looking at camera shots and analysing film clips. I have recently found out that we will be watching parts of a series called Utopia,and commenting on the style of the series and camera angles used for different effects. As I enjoy watching television and films, I think that it will put a completely new perspective on things, as I will start to infer the deeper meanings of certain parts in the film or series.My favourite film series is by far Harry Potter, as it is so interesting and imaginative, the characters are so complex, and the effects used are amazing. Theres so many clues carefully given throughout which we can piece together as the films go on, and as I have heard we will be studying it, I am excited to learn the techniques used to keep the effects just as imaginative as the plot.
Media is a subject I have not studied before, however I do believe that it is an important factor in every day life. As we encounter the Media all the time, be it through magazines, talk shows, or even music. It intrigues me how a subject which was definitely not taught when my parents were born, has grown into such a crucial subject which I think everyone should become familiarised with.
I am looking forward to the future of my time in Media, and updating my blog throughout my Media Studies journey!
