1. Question 1

2. In this shot, it is clearly showing a low
level of intellect, due to the spelling of
„Buyed‟ when it should be „Bought‟ and
the spelling of „bbe‟ which is an
abbreviation of „babe‟

3. For the characters, I have Over
exaggerated the vein, and over tanned
look of „TOWIE‟ The make up is applied
badly, and very thick to challenge the
conventions. The clothes were in some
cases, over the top. The hair has to be
full of gel, and over the top.

4. Close up. Eye level is in the
top half of the shot. Both
talking to a person behind
the camera. The mise en
scene of fake tan is
challeneged as it is applied
to an over-the-top amount.
Medium close up sat in the
car facing the camera, the
mise en scene is matched
due to the clothes, and fake
tan is applied badly to
challenge the conventions.
Here, I have created the
scene of a “vajazzle” but
played on the conventions,
and made it so it is two
males. they are both two
shots.

5. Here, I have challenged the shot, by
using a scene where make up is
being applied, but changed it by
making it a two shot.
Here, the original close up has been
changed into an extreme close up, I
have changed it so it is only the
hands seen in the shot, there is also
a zoom that has been applied to it.
This shot has been challenged by
using a medium close up instead of a
normal close up, it is also a two shot

10. „TV buzz‟ has a character „We love telly‟ has 3 cover stars
displayed as a plastic doll. on the cover, which would be
Which plays on the audiences ideal to use on my own piece, as
knowledge of the programme, it suits the storyline I wish to use,
and intertextually, how which is typical cheating,
everybody is „plastic‟. This type therefore needing 3 characters
of magazine is less chaotic, on view on the cover. This type
more simplistic and clean. of magazine is trashy, chaotic
and busy.

11. Typical storylines:
- Cheating on another's boyfriend/girlfriend
- Secret love
- Pregnancy
- Death
- Found in bed with someone
- 2 characters pregnant with 1 male
- Weddings

12. Other soaps to use on the cover:
-Made In Chelsea
- Jersey Shore
- Geordie Shore
- Desperate Scousewives

14. The cast of the soap are sat
and stood up all together. The
way each character is
displayed is important, the
anchorage and the position of
who is beside who is
deliberate.

15. Here you can see how I have recreated
the ancillary using conventions for other
shows, in both posters, it contains the
whole cast look classy and expensive,
which I have recreated, using the gold
title and a crown. All characters are
looking at the camera and are pulling off
a pose which is can also be seen in the
other two shows.

17. How did you use
technologies to create
your product?
• To Create my product, I used My iPhone camera, as it is, in my opinion, easier to upload than a camera. However I didn't have
the ability to use a tripod, as I don't own one for the iPhone.
• I uploaded my photos to Microsoft PowerPoint to make them play together at a fast speed, I put the animation speed at
00:00.01, to make the photos look like they’re playing like a video. I then uploaded it to slide share, which is a website that allows
you to upload slideshows and further edit them. i had the choice to use YouTube, but I thought slideshare is better.
• I didn’t use many props, and my product was pretty
Simple in my opinion, I could not really have used any
More props for this stop motion, as it only involved the
Bowl.
Here I can upload the pictures
straight into slideshare

18. How did the task
enable you to be
creative?
• All these technologies allowed me to be more creative by offering me a more diverse way of creating a product.
• building a narrative was fairly easy, there wasn‟t a story to mine, it was just something developing. I had many ideas but I did not
know how to create them as they were very complex, the idea I went for was very simple and I am thinking of creating it again. I
thought of creating words with beads, maybe spelling out „Stop-motion‟ but I didn't think about it hard enough.
• I decided what to use at the time I took it, as it seemed like a good idea, however when I uploaded the slides I didn't realise it was
going to be that short, I would like to create one where I can make it longer. I did use YouTube to help me with ideas, it help me
create inspiration and I got ideas through other YouTube users.
• I should have done more drafting to make sure that I had a wide variety of ideas. I only thought about the ideas and didn't write
them down or storyboard, which would have helped a lot, as I could plan it out a lot better and actually create an effective narrative.
I used someone to take the fries away one by one, while I took the photo‟s. This
made it a lot easier and quicker for me.

19. This is a very well known and symbolic shot for The
opening scene of Eastenders. It is a pan view that
zooms out on the river Thames, therefore, before the
programme starts, everyone knows where it is. It shows
the 02 arena, showing that it is regularly updated.
The soundtrack is so well known that even if they‟re in
another room and hear the “drums” they will know it‟s
Eastenders. The way the music sounds is also a key
way of telling the lifestyles of the characters, due to the
boring style of it, it indicates that the characters lifestyle
is quite dull and boring to, this is also indicated by the
dark, gray colours, the music is quite dull and not much
to it, there's only about 2 or 3 instruments.
